Do you think you could have someone videotape your next event? I think the American people need to see the belligerence and antipathy of these liberals toward an honor guard that is simply showing respect and deference to our national symbol.
It was a great crowd (over 1000 attended), with lots of cameras and videocams. Not even one piece of paper left on the ground after the group left. The color guard was led in by two stout fellows with bagpipes....it was outstanding.
The most controversial thing that happened was about 20 anti-war protesters showed up at the end with their typical banners and peace signs. I personally shook each of their hands and congratulated them for exercising their right to free of speech. They didn't have a clue as to how to respond to that!

Oh, there were plenty of cams going. The verbal abuse was directed, it seems, through the Honor Guard Commander via letter, email, voice mail, etc.
I have thought this over in my head many times and not ONCE can I EVER recall anybody bad mouthing ANY Honor Guard for posting and retiring the colors.
In my opinion, it takes a very special (real not in a good way) person to say bad things about a group of military people who take their own time to show respect for the flag and our fallen brothers and sisters in arms.
If this is what “Minnesota Nice” is, then, how do I get out of this Chicken-Sh*t outfit?
