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 (news - web sites). (AP Photo/Ted S. Warren)
Is this what are country is coming too? I have little hope for our survival!
Those people who aren't willing to fight for their freedom deserve to lose it.These cowards mock the men who give them the freedom to go through life acting like complete losers.This country should bring back the draft in order to give these punks a little perspective.If we start the draft again it can be used to offset the years of liberal garbage the teachers pounded into their heads.I believe that a country needs to have a civil war every hundred years in order to clean out the trash.
Remember the organized conspiracy to "protest" at Republican Party facilities this past fall?
"These people don't deserve the freedoms that SFC Due has sworn to protect.
Damn, this p!$$e$ me off."
Ditto.
According to an eyewitness Freeper at the Inaugural protests yesterday, their DC brethren were carrying signs saying " Death To US Soldiers."
I wonder how many of these s*!! birds are getting a free ride from Pell Grants, courtesy of the rest of us taxpayers?
Maybe some congressional Republican will investigate.
Yeah- when Hell freezes over.
Ignorant fools....this kind of stuff just burns me up. Those men are sworn to defend their right to free speech, and this is what they do with it.... Simply disgusting...
brass knuckles under winter gloves help to keep the hands warm.......Man this crap pi&&es me off!!!!!!!!!!!
We should all email this ComCollege and complain about not ensuring the safety of invited guests on the campus.
I already have but not that specific heading........
I've been all over the website, and other than an alphabetical listing of the faculty (without any appropriate titles--such as president, dean, etc.) there are no email contacts except to the webmaster. Seems that the college wants anyone attempting to contact it for whatever reason to call 206-587-5450. Maybe someone should give the president's office a ring and give him or her an earful...
This amazes me. I want all those people polled to see their party affiliation. What 95% Democrat? That's odd......friggin Communists.
You are right. It really is a shame they get a free ride and yet rail against those who protect them. I wish I could tattoo USEFUL IDIOT on everyone of their empty foreheads.

i am in the unted states marine corps and have served this country for almost 6 yrs. i was deployed for afghanistan and iraq and it upsets me that we have people in this country that would treat a servicemember like this. just like the person who sales shoes at the mall this is just a job. just because you are in the military does not mean you support the war.their job is recruiting. if you dont want to join that should be it. you should not resort to violence because its people like them and me that serve to protect this country. and even allow them to protest us. a poet once said it it the serviceman that give the freedom of press not the reporter. its the serviceman who gives freedom of speech not the politician. it it the serviceman that that salutes the flag, serves under the flag, and when he dies his coffin is drapped by the flag. i hope there are better people out there than this
