Move America Forward, the nation’s largest pro-troop organization, unveiled a chilling report on escalating attacks on military recruiters on Friday as anti-war forces planned disorderly conduct on Wednesday, the fifth anniversary of the start of the Iraq War.

Their only hope is to provoke counter violence — and it isnkt going to happen.
Code Pink has lost.
Nah. Better to just duck, and let God smack ‘em.
Awww you are no fun, lol
I heard that TrueBlackMan, aka Kevin Martin, gave them hell.

Well I wasn’t disagreeing with you, I wish they were far far far away too!
***Their only hope is to provoke counter violence — and it isnkt going to happen.***
Hopefully, at least not in front of cameras.

God help me, but if these guys just bumped into me I would pummel them with everything I’ve got.
