Old Salt Posts: 461 Location: Medina, OH | Subject: NSR - Peaceniks attack Vet/Family/Tonite on TVWhen are people, including media, going to start looking closely at some "peaceniks" and what they're doing to our military, including active and former personnel?Bill O'Reilly featuring a segment tonight (Tuesday) on the Edinboro Assaults, including interviews with Vet Jason Swartout and others who were attacked by peace activitists. 8PM EDT.........7 PM CDT Here's some background info --- Wednesday, April 23, 2008 Peace Terrorists Assault Iraq Vet & Family, Including Wife and Teenage Son(Below from Eagles Up as taken from Melanie Morgan's site, as well as a companion report on PeaceThugs.com. This is so outrageous that it should make every red blooded American's blood boil with anger. Recently, I wrote about Iraq War Vet Jason Swartout, who was assaulted by some 82 year old woman in the name of "peace." This veteran and his family have also had to endure their home being attacked on two occasions, their car vandalized and now, this past weekend, his wife and teenage son were attacked by some so-called "peace" protesters in Edinboro, PA. Mel has a report from Dan Malone, NY State coordinator of Gathering of Eagles, and PeaceThugs has a report from Swartout's wife, Carrie, which follows below. "We had a counter protest today in Edinboro. It was an Iraq war protest put together by Richard McVay. He was not present but there were about 10 college students, a couple professors and a group of Hillary supporters.Mr. Maloney of GOE (Gathering of Eages) writes: "I think it is long past time for the people in this country to wake up to the violence of the ‘peace’ movement. I think it is long past time for them to realize that not standing up to the excesses of violence will only beget more violence. Where does it stop? What has to happen before authorities crack down on these so-called "peace" groups and their activities. I knew that a $25 fine given to Ann Dewalt last month for kicking Swartout was nothing less than a slap on the wrist. Shame on those police for doing nothing while this family was assaulted in full view of their younger children! | ||

Great Sage of the Sea Posts: 811 Location: NW Connecticut | Subject: RE: NSR - Peaceniks attack Vet/Family/Tonite on TV As I posted over in Rontini's sand box about this I will do so again here. For the past year and a half our home and my wife's small SUV have been "egged" 5 times by what the local PD calls "pranksters". They target my wifes license plates which read "SEAL-MA" and our homes front window that I have a Blue "Service Star" flag with 3 stars hanging in.. A Star for My Son, My Son-in-Law and My Nephew who I raised and are all in various branches of the Service. We live on a busy road that's about 3 miles long.. We are the only home being "pranked".. We have no need or wish to go to the local newspaper because my wife doesn't want the publicity. The cops take photos do a report and leave, they are usless and have bigger fish to fry for sure.. Of course this is not in the same ballpark as to what happened to these poor people but it is a tramatic experience that really upsets my wife and incites me into a controlled very dangerous rage. I am not surprised by this incident and others that are public and I'm sure many more that are not. It's just all part of what this world is all coming to..Hate is a difficult force to combat.. Ignorance is even tougher especially when you mix it with hate. I look at it like this.. They're a bunch of cowardly idiots who enjoy tipping the apple cart.. Ignore them and if they are wise they will go away...eggyokes, even though difficult do wash off. If they continue then deal with them in kind..if you are so inclined or able. At times I have been both. Edited by Smiley 2008-04-29 2:29 PM | ||
