Default Is this the correct thing to do?
Whether you are for the war or against it. Is targeting the military recruiting offices the correct course of action? I see this stuff, these pictures of these people and I am ashamed to call myself an American. I know that there are probably going to be posts after mine that will find some way to defend this type of thing.....I don't get it. Are people in such a dire need to re-enact the anti-soldier protests of the Vietnam era?

Seeing these types of things brings tears to my eyes. All I can do is throw my hands up, I don't get it.

Michelle Malkin » Special report: Tracing the Left’s escalating war on military recruiters

Put aside you political stance for a minute and ask yourself, is this the right thing to do?


They mention the Rockville Air Force recruiting office right down the street from me...........

No, its not the right thing to do. These are the same people who say they are against the war, but support the troops. They complain about the lack of troop rotation in Iraq, then in the same breath, want to shut down the recruiting stations. Hypocrits, all ...

I love it, the hypocrisy. This is a perfect opportunity for the majority of citizens to galvanize on this issue. There is much too much of the, "I support the military; fuck Petraeus!", sentiment going around. Lets ferret out these "traitors" and condemn the hypocrisy. It has to get worse before it will get better, in my opinion.

Michelle Malkin (née Maglalang) (born October 20, 1970) is a socially and politically conservative Americancolumnist, blogger, author and political commentator. She has made frequent guest appearances on national syndicated radio programs and on television networks such as MSNBC, Fox News Channel, and C-SPAN. As well as her written blog, she posts regular video blogs. Her syndicatedcolumn "appears in nearly 200 newspapers nationwide" [1].
She also has been a frequent commentator forFOX News Channel and has guest-hosted The O'Reilly Factor.

I think this sums up the content of Malkins rant. Lets do an idelogical comparison:
The military goes around the world blowing shit and people up;
Protestors blow military recruiters offices up;
sounds like an eye for an eye to me.

The person writing about it is irrellevant and doesnt take away from the fact that these events happened and are cowardly and low. This would be akin to not wanting to pay your taxes and blowing up an H&R Block in protest.

Seriously, I think your on to something. First tax place I see blown up, I'll think of your "prediction". With steady tax increases looming, it's only a matter of time.

simple answer is no

and for those willing to call people who ask for a change hypocrites, why? is it because admitting that war is emotionally wrecking for millions of people and an inevitable reality of our current society too much? or do you like war? do you like to see people who, for whatever reason they choose to join the army, give their life for the private agenda of people who lie to a country? and then those who are now there, because of those uncontrollable circumstances that landed them there, you are saying its wrong to still say you love your friends/family and want them back and believe that it is incorrect hypocrasy to believe a general is wrong?

and ccodiane, that you would label anyone who says fuck petreious a traitor goes beyond me. i figure a traitor is someone who is willing to sell out their country for their own gain, not someone voicing an opinion...

Where to begin..............? Let's make this easy.

War is reality, peace is for the victors and the dreamers.

Troops who enlist were either idiots who believed a lie or their unfortunate circumstances "made them do it"? Typical non-patriotic response. What about, "Loved their country", or are those the idiots?

Is it wrong to say you want "them" back? Hell yes. Your spitting in their faces, unless they are a part of the "unfortunate circumstances" crowd. They enlisted to complete a job, not bow to the whims of every damn peace nick breathing.

Hey Tampico, fuck Petraeus? A man who has committed his life to serving and defending this country. Fuuuuck yoooou. You sound like a traitorous hypocrite. Just "voicing an opinion...".
