If the Police Chief is directly intervening in such a way to allow the protestors to commit assault without fear of prosecution and guarantee of arrest of anyone who fights back, then this is a very bad situation and the Police Chief should be shot. However, all that I have to go on is the article (which is skimpy on details, to say the least) and the claim from the man's wife (which I have to admit cannot be considered totally unbiased). I will say that if this altercation started, as reported, with the man exiting his vechile only because he saw something that he did not like then he is certainly not entirely innocent here, even if the protestor shares some guilt.

What it comes down to is that, symbolically, a defender of the flag, a defender of a symbol of freedom, of the American way of life, is once again up against the proverbial wall, while an anti-American and despicable cur who, if one accepts counterstatements being made about the incident, is just as, if not in fact more guilty.

Do I advocate attacking such morons with physical violence? Of course not. When our nation defines who is worthy of a right given to all by God, our nation will perish from this Earth.

The simple fact of the matter is that there is an inequity in this incident that is grossly appalling. That a community's principal law enforcement officer usurped the rights of one over another is secondary, albeit perhaps tantamount to the injustice done to Mr. Krasowski. Should the protestors be protected? At who's expense? Who compels these people to voice in America their hatred for the very nation that secures the freedoms they demand?

Charge them both, or drop the matter, and issue a warning to each to take more responsibility for their actions.

And the Common Council of the City of Wausau should discuss immediately with its chief his performance in this incident.
