My father...who was a Hero...fought and was gravely wounded, and spent 50 years totally disabled...to insure that idiots like this had the right to express their stupid and offensive opinions.

Oh, he has every right to say what he's saying, but I at least was taught that rights are not absolute-they all come with responsibilities. Such as the responsibility not to sow hatred of the Armed Forces in time of war, or to denigrate one's own country in a time of crises. Have people actually gone this far sideways, that they can write such evil, vile crap and not be vilified by millions of right-thinking people? This man, and others like him, should be shunned and never again allowed to present themselves in polite society. Exercising his rights whilst ignoring his responsibilities should bring some societal consequences, at least.
