Three-year-old Sophia Parlock cries while seated on the shoulders of her father, Phil Parlock, after having their Bush-Cheney sign torn up by Kerry-Edwards supporters on Thursday, Sept. 16, 2004, at the Tri-State Airport in Huntington, W.Va. Democratic vice presidential candidate John Edwards (news - web sites) made a brief stop at the airport as he concluded his two-day bus tour to locations in West Virginia and Ohio.

Too bad they did not photograph the dirty deed.
Again? Wow, this is the tenth little girl to have this happen in two days.
Ever try the "SEARCH" function on FR? It really works.
Here is the little girls email address if you want to send her your support pparlock@ezwv.com Thanks!
Drop the IUPAT prez an email. Send him a nice photo of the incident.

Dear Jimmy,
It's an epidemic!
Authorities need to charge the creep with theft, vandalism, assault and whatever else fits. They have the evidence in the photo.
Well....Lets just wait a minute Hoss.....LOL

HEY!
You are talking about the voter base for the DIMS.
Winos, whores, felons, ex-cons, addicts, bums, liars, sexual predators like Bubba Klinton, gays, freaks and twinks, Union goons, etc.
It's ridiculous. This stuff is cluttering the forum.

Somebody ought to rip up the jerk that did it. What a sorry excuse for a human being.
Yes they did, Yahoo has it.
you have to be the only freeper to not post on the picture thread of this........
They did take a photo of the event...She looks so sad, and the union thug who tore up the sign still has a portion of it in his hand. I felt compelled to send an email to the president of the union (his email address has already been posted here if anyone else is so inclined). My email was:
Sir:
My son, SGT Brian Wood, was killed in Iraq this year. He died to protect this country and the freedoms we enjoy, among them the freedom to speak our minds without concern that someone physically stronger than us will use their strength to quell that speech.
I am not a union member, so obviously your published promise to listen doesnt apply to me. I would like to say how disgusted I am that members of your union took it upon themselves to, by physical force, prohibit a father and his two very minor children from expressing their First Amendment rights to free speech at the W. Virginia airport rally for Senator John Edwards. This is a throwback to the union days of Jimmy Hoffa and organized crime. You and your union should be ashamed of this craven act of brutality. Such a lovely picture it is of a 3 year old crying and your union thug with a wide smile on his face and a portion of the little girl and her fathers sign clutched in his grubby paw.
You should be ashamed of yourselves
.I know that I am. Your union and its brownshirt thugs belong in Nazi Germany, not free America.
Most sincerely,
Gregory Wood
I know, I know, its a bit over the top, but I suspect that subtlety is lost on people who think that brute force is the way to win the arguement.
The photo I saw was only of the little girl crying after they did it.
I doubt it highly. If so, there would have been a thread on FR about this.
No, I don't believe there is any such "picture."
Little did I know that it would spread so... you can thank freepers for getting the story out.
"Anti-Bush protester"?
How about reporting what they actually are... pro-Kerry supporters.
