People do not have a right to confiscate anything.

What they did is theft.

Swear out a warrant and have them arrested.

Better yet kick their ass.

If I were a liberal Democrat in 2013, I’d be laughing and peeing in everyone’s faces too.

This was not a “protest” - it was vandalism and theft. They should have been arrested.

I’m mad at myself for not being more aggressive. I was just dumbfounded.”

The reason for leftist hegemony.

Good grief, be a man for once. They look like your average Georgetown types. Just beat the bloody sh!t out of them.

“I got there just as they were taking the very last of them out of the ground and putting them in piles,”

And...

There was no discussion. No compromise.

It'll surely come right back at them. Just as Yuri Bezmenov understood.

five protestors claiming that the flags were on top of a sacred Abenaki burial site

Wow the kids don’t look very Abenaki....

I've read the comments and some follow-up stories.

The local Abenaki community was appalled and disavowed the “protesters,” saying they had no knowledge of the people involved, and further, that the site was not a burial ground.

Most students seem utterly disgusted. Even the “liberals.”

Vermonters must be total pussies. What kind of person watches this and doesn’t do anything to stop it? (Especially considering the pansies who were doing it.)

Anna Shireman-Grabowski, she came forward. Not students at that college. Local tribal member said there is no burial ground at that site. His father served in the military, he did, and his son does. He said (Don Stevens?) that putting flags which represent bravery would not desecrate a burial ground.

Legal Insurrection has her statement.

According to other articles this location is not an Abenaki Burial Ground.

There are two Abenaki “tribes” recognized by Vermont. There are no lands or “burial grounds” recognized by any reputable authority.

I suspect that the “in protest of America’s imperialism” excuse is the real reason for destroying personal property on public property.

Based on the picture, those are a couple of 10th year students on that campus.

Too much pot, too few brain cells left.

I think these morons “self-identify” as native Americans.

The “Native” who was with the four (4) “non-natives”, Amanda Lickers, has her words at this site.

Does she not know that many tribes “stole”, “murdered”, “raped” other “Native American Tribes”? That many tribes did not have the concept of ownership of the land?

She is UNINFORMED and IMHO, unstable.

In other words, it was a totally made-up excuse.

If the vandals had stated their real reason for doing it, they would have been run out of the campus.
