Maybe we can get some of the Ohio National Guard troops to head out there. How about Kent State II.

One more reason to spend my tourist dollars elsewhere.

If the "Army Times" or other armed service newspapers have any courage, they will publish this picture and story. Just to remind the guys over seas about what the people who "hate the war but support our troops" are about.

I think you misunderstood me. I wasn't calling Hitler, Stalin, etc. patriots.

I was calling Americans who have a strong sense of nationalism and pride patriots.

You're right. I did misunderstand. But I didn't think what you thought I thought. LOL. I thought you were calling the criminals who attacked the recruiter "patriots." Thanks for clearing that up. I went back through the thread, and I see where I made my mistake. It won't happen again - - - on this thread.

Why do I even bother defending this country?

Because for every one of those little pukes (and little pukes like them) there are 10 or 100 Americans that value your service and the nation you serve.

Sgt. 1st Class Jeff Due, right, a U.S. Army recruiter, is surrounded by protesters at Seattle Central Community College, Thursday, Jan. 20, 2005, in Seattle. After about a 10-minute standoff during which protesters tore up U.S Army literature, the protesters were successful in getting Due and another recruiter to leave their table under escort by campus security officers. Several hundred students walked out of classes at several Seattle colleges and universities to protest the inauguration of President Bush.

There are ZERO conservative students at Seattle Central Community College. It is in the heart of Capitol Hill, the main area of gays, neohippies and runaway "children."

There is a College Republican presence at the University of Washington (in NE Seattle), but they are still outnumbered. That is still better than the situation at Seattle Central where you are more likely to meet a Jackalope as you are a conservative student.

You are very gracious; I appreciate your re-reading the thread. Gosh, I'd hate to be thought of as sympathetic to the miserable rabble who hounded that poor recruiter out of the school! I wish I was there, just to show Sgt. Due that many of us honor him for his service and to trip a few student dirtbags "accidentally"!

Thanks again, BykrBayb!

No kidding! Urban Seattle is both contaminated and occupied by an overwhelming mob of immorality pushers.

It was not always so bad. I am a Seattle native, born in the mid 60's and raised on Queen Anne hill, which is very near downtown. The neighborhood evolved especially during the 70's...when everything went "down hill". The city was near extinction economically and Boeing laid off a large majority of its workforce. And with economic hard times it seemed that hippies were granted some sort of political prestige. The media helped turn America against itself and the hippies became the voice of "reason".

It has been said that Seattle is actually more liberal than San Francisco. I wonder if the worst of them moved here to infiltrate and conquer our vulnerable culture. That was a consequence of people losing their jobs and confidence in capitalism and how "unfair" it was to the "little guy". And still to this day, even in the best of economic times, the rhetoric from labor unions is so predictable and silly. Some of them are dedicated Marxists, set out to defeat capitalism by ruining business corporations.

Today, the hippies march on and act militant as if they have the right to trample on others. I'm not surprised by this episode of hatred and intolerance aimed at this recruiter. The protesters had no right to do what they did, but they knew they would not be punished...hence the smiles of satisfaction you see on their faces. Behind the veil, their souls are vacant and resentful as they aim to crush anything representing a moral society. Anarchy is their ideal, and the avenue for their "utopia". Almost like a scorched earth policy where they can thrive in their own waste and depravity.

Seattle native here also, but born a bit earlier - 1951. I called SCCC on Friday, but did not get a message returned. Fancy that! I am going to ask that each and every person who participated in that terrorist anarchy get suspended. If I had been in Jeff Dues' place, I would have been fearing for my life! What a bunch of brainless people.
