I guess one man's "young and innocent woman trying to save someone's home from destruction" is another man's "terrorist sympathizer who knew exactly what she was doing".
Oh, come on. Is the cultural war really that bad that we have to ignore specific individuals and actions and lump them all together under the Terrorist Sympathizer label? Ever hear or freedoms of assembly, speech and petition? Or due process? Rule of law? Trial by jury?
Your Terrorist labelling and condemnation is totalitarian and the Vets sure-as-H didn't fight for that crap to come to America! We fought it overseas, we'll fight it here.
She was just a misguided kid who died trying to save someone's home. There's no Terrorist there. She's no Talliban Johnny.

Ever stop to consider that constitutional guarantees end at the water's edge? This "ditsy chick" took sides in someone else's war zone and paid the price. When something similar happens to a protester stateside, you might have a case. Maybe.

YOU "come on". Frankly, I think it's a gigantic leap to assume that someone in their twenties who travels that distance to do what she was doing didn't understand precisely why she was doing it.
