"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.

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

At that point, they are no longer "protestors." They are "rioters," "insurrectionists," and "persons engaged in felonious conduct."

Well, they are no longer exercising free speech, and they've entered a different category.

As several have pointed out, the legitimate protestors are being infiltrated by professional violent agitators. This was true in Seattle and in Florida, but the result was peaceable (albeit HIPPIE) citizens being billyclubbed when they posed no threat.

The watermelon (green on the outside, red on the inside) protestors are succeeding in creating an atmosphere where legitimate protest can be squelched and conservatives approve because lefist scumbags are the ones being silenced.
