..I thought if he kept it up--and he did for quite some time--he was going to rupture a vocal cord....

Trust you to be in here gloating, Catty

*****

No gloat, By, just fact.  One cannot continue to scream and yell at that volume for that length of time without risking injury to one's vocal cords.

From the Montgomery Advertiser:

For Ken Barnett, 58, of Prattville, the reality that the monument had been moved was too much to handle.

For almost an hour, Barnett yelled and shouted, "Put it back! Put it back! Put it back!" and called those responsible for the monument's removal, "God haters."

"You ain't taking my Ten Commandments, you ain't taking my Bible and you ain't touching my faith," he shouted.

Barnett's emotional performance left him drenched in sweat and his voice exhausted.


From another story in the Montgomery Advertiser.  Mr. Barnett is the man in the plaid shirt mentioned above and the one I referenced. 

 

Larry Sikes, left, Ken Barnett, center, and Joseph Aikens shout "Put it back" after the Ten Commandments monument was moved Wednesday. Most demonstrators remained calm and solemn.

Yeeeeee-haw. Screaming middle aged men, yelling in the name of Christ.

Cretins.

Let him worry about his vocal chords, CP. It's obvious he feels this protest is worth risking them. Cheers, By
