Do you have a problem with that?

Perhaps the more appropriate question would be "Does the Constitution have a problem with killing protesters?" and the answer is unequivocably 'yes.'

Just because I disagree with a bunch of hippies doesn't give me the right to kill them. And that is even more true with the government.

Be careful about what you endorse, under a Kerry/Hitlery administration they may be bringing in the body bags for a freep-fest they don't like.

Last I heard the body bags were empty.

Would it make you feel better if the body bags were meant for the potential victims of a terrorist attack?

Preparing for a catastrophe is not unconstitutional. Paranoia is not always a good thing.

Don't you worry, the Free Republic "free speech for me but not for thee" crowd will be back on the 1st Amendment bandwagon just as soon as a Rat is in office and not one moment sooner.

True. But the legitimate protests tend to have insurrectionists and rioters tag along and engage in violence against (a) the legitimate protestors, (b) the residents of the community, and (c) the police.

The Ecomonic Summit protestors are anarchist-socialists. They wear black masks and follow these meetings around the world where they routinely RIOT. Rioting is not "protected speech".

Since quite a few of the protestors are not even US citizens (foreign protestors), they come here specifically to cause problems. I call them terrorists.

That alone does not give the right to fire but that certainly must be considered a possibility. Too many world leaders in a concentrated location to let the mob have the upper hand.

That future has been here. Just because the media didn't broadcast it didn't mean that it didn't happen.

True.. But I have no qualms whatsoever with shooting protestors on sight, when they are looting, damaging, and rioting on/in private property.
