My friend a Navy Master Chief said the protesters threw dog food on him. The police just stood there and watched. When he scrapped it off and was going to throw it back at them, the police officer said they'd arrest him if he did.

Another friend Ret. COL USAF said they spit on him..he was enroute to his mom's funeral having come all the way from Vietnam for it.

"The police just stood there and watched."

That's a shame. My Dad was one of those police officers but he didn't let them get away with it. He used his night stick on those hippies. He hated them. He even tried to run down Kerry and Fonda. He wasn't serious just trying to scare them. He was mad because Kerry wanted a police escort and that was one of Dad's jobs. Needless to say, Kerry didn't get an escort.
