While news cameras were filming the event, Marine Jeff Key physically grabbed a cameraman from San Francisco local affiliate KGO. Key objected to the cameramans shooting position, which was on the same site where the protesters have erected crosses listing the names of fallen soldiers in Iraq. Here's a photo from right before the altercation took place:
I asked Mark Matthews of KGO about the alleged assault, Im not happy about it. Were happy to abide by the rules when we know what the rules are. But there was no message communicated to us to stay out of the crosses. And last night, photographers, supporters of Cindy Sheehan, people praying, clapping and singing were here amongst the crosses. 13 hours later, its off limits without any notification to us.
I asked one of Sheehans spokeswoman if she condoned Keys assault of the cameraman. She would not answer my question directly, instead saying, I think if we all do our fair share, well work to keep everybody out of the way Thats all we need is to have people stay out of the crosses I think thats all being worked out privately. I think the cameraman and the Iraq veteran was doing his best to honor the fallen will work it out.
Here's a pic of the spokeswoman who refused to answser my question:
Gad, is she butt-ugly.
enough foolishness! you are missing the point...
I knew..there was something up with this Jeff Key Guy...
bttt
Go get 'em, Angel!
That pretend grieve reminds me of the stones on the beach at Normandy that just 'happened' to be there so that x42 could make a cross from them. Wonder if the same people came up with this idea.
He seems to be one of the few (like Scott Ritter) deserving of the title ex-Marine.
Note: The usual term used by people who have served in the Marine Corps is former Marine; actually it's more commonly just Marine. As I've been told -- Once a Marine, always a Marine. Semper Fi, guys. (From a squid.)
What gets me is their use of the cross....a totally CHRISTIAN symbol. It is blasphemy for the left....(who HATE the Religious Right).... who proceed every day to destroy any mention of God, etc., in the public square...who defile everything Jesus stood for......and NOW they resort to using the crosses???? They are such hypocrites!!!
...........
They're hypocrites who are "using" Christianity AGAINST Christians. That's why they're playing on Christian "sensitivities". Don't fall for it!
I read in his blog that he's a 39-year-old flaming (apologies - sort of a) Marine. How the hell can that happen, as fruity as he seems to be?
Did you really mean to use the word "fag" here? Couldn't you have instead called him a "filthy reprobate pervert?"
Nope, not Jeff Gannon. But a sure enough flaming queer Marine. Why is it the Libs get so upset about an alleged Queer when he's on the Right, but if he's a lefty they say nothing? I personally don't give a damn if Gannon or this guy is Gay. I just think it's funny that after all the filth the DUmmies spewed about Gannon, why don't they have their panties in a wad over this guy??? Could it be a double standard? Oh,no, not in DUmmyland. How 'bout heading back over there so you can come back here and share your brilliant observations with us dumb freepers.
Hmmm. And it's run by a Wiccan Priestess named Starhawk.
Hmmm. "Wiccan Priestess" is a thinly veiled code for "Lesbian activist".
Hmmm.
Hmmm. Those were worthy of some of my Sarcasm TorpedoesTM. Like this:
All we need to make this complete is Alec Baldwin of Team America: World Police showing up at the protest and saying,
"Nice Going, F.A.G. !"
Cheers!
I dare not speculate.
I will...
How long do you think it is since this guy double-dated with Michael Jackson?
Did he invite these boys to "Camp Rubba Rubba"?
No cheers, unfortunately.
"Key objected to the cameramans shooting position
So they object to a guy using a camera standing in the crosses yet...>
A Microphone stand is OK?
The answer to your question is contained in Post 313, in conjunction with this photo:
Cheers!
With apologies to Alanis:
" It's like saying 'Marine', when you really mean fag.
It's like wearing the stripes, when you should be in drag.
Now isn't that ironic, don't ya think?"
I see the word "Keeper"
Well son, I'm really grieving your death, so I'm going to reflect my truest feelings for you by finding a homosexual to dress up in cloths like you used to wear, and protest the cause you fought for when you were killed, while they won't let me dance on your grave, I'll do the next best thing by creating a faux cemetary and make national press standing in the middle of it making a public mockery of everything you ever found to be honorable in your life before you were killed overseas.
Love to reminesce, some more, but I'm off to make another spectacle of myself with my new Gay ex-Marine boyfriend....kisses, Mom
