Soldier Defends His Home (in Seattle !)
KOMO TV (Seattle) ^ | 10/3/05

SHORELINE - Ken Potts calls himself a patriot. That's what his front yard tells you too.

But he says that in the last year the mailbox has been blown up twice with fireworks. The house has been egged. Paint has been thrown on the house too. The flags have been torn down and ripped up more than once.

And the 101st Airborne flag has had the word "murder" and a swastika written on it with a permanent marker.

I may have grown up here but I will move out if I can afford it.

I got out of New England 15 years ago. Born and raised there. Wouldn't go back for a million bucks.

Ohio isn't the most conservative state, but 1000 times better than New England.

I'm surprised someone at the DUmp hasn't started a thread over there claiming credit for this.

They've been p!ssing me off lately with their cheerleading for the terrorists.

I actually have a quote save from the vile DUmmie Distressed American advocating spitting on the current soldiers and chastising the Libtards for cutting us "baby killers" too much slack.

That's really pathetic, but it's EXACTLY how liberals are......pathetic!! He should install cameras all the way around his house. Even better, he should move out of that toilet of a liberal hell hole. We love our veterans in NM! They are treated with respect, and the honor that they are due.

Sounds like Seattle is running second to the city of Ithaca as the city of evil. Hard to imagine Americans doing things like this. Well I guess just because you live in America you arent necessarily an American.

After the first time the scum messed with me I would have been ready for them. But then again, I'm ready for them already.

They despise everything that makes America great and cherish everything that debases and demoralizes us.

30 years from now, the leftist scum will claim this too didn't happen, that it was made up, like they claim reports of us returning from Viet Nam and being spat at or otherwise mistreated were, today.

When I was stationed at Whidbey Island back in the days, I went on a coupla "urban patrols" in downtown Seattle. One guy would be in uniform and wonder the streets. The rest of us would shadow him until he got got "baited". He'd lead on to a predetermined spot where some serious "manners" were taught. You shoulda heard the little whining cry-babies, then...lol.

Two soldiers got beat up in front of a nightclub a while back there too.

Did anyone hear any followup on this story? Did they ever catch the people involved? Did the soldiers recover?

[Two soldiers got beat up in front of a nightclub a while back there too.]

But they weren't gay, so it didn't make the news.

...but that illustrates Seattle even more...the two men were black...normally a situation of much hand-wringing by liberal Seattle...

...but...alas...the men were SOLDIERS...guess how quick that got hushed up....

...no sympathy for "baby killers"... /sarc

No one was caught. One local radio person interviewed them but that was it.
