Well then Sheryl Crow is more informed than you are.

In the immortal words of Russ: "You just get dumber and dumber"
Do you think you are more informed than I am regarding this subject?
Yes, I do. I can even spell Saddam Hussein's name correctly. You can't.
Do you even know what my stance is regarding Disarming Hussien?
We are talking about your typical war protestor, not you. I really not care what you oponion is about war with Iraq.

The only thing you know is that I think you labeling Anti War Protestors as Pro Hussien is one of the most ignorant statements regarding this issue I have seen. Unfortunately you aren't the only buffoon here that's done that.
Now you are back to the name calling again. Whether the protesters realize or acknowledge it, they are playing the role of a "useful idiot" that is beneficial to Saddam Hussein.

BTW, I know Russ and you are no Russ!
Very perceptive!

Thankfully, these idiots do not represent the bulk of the antiwar protestors.

Lately, that seems to be EXACTLY the attitude of most of the Anti-War protesters.

How so? I haven't heard of any similar incidents. Most antiwar protestors are worried about going to war, and may not agree with it, but they still love this country and support our troops 100%. It is the actions of the government they don't agree with. However, with any group, there will always be the few that act like idiots and get all the attention.

what government actions could they possibly be protesting. the US is working in the framework of the UN still, this whole thing would have been averted if france, germany, russia, and china realized that by putting collective pressure of the whole world on Iraq, saddam would have easily caved, but now that saddam has succesfully split the world community just so france will they are a power player, there will be a war and france, germany, russia, and china will be proven wrong

I never said that. I did say that I could tell your political tendencies from your posts.

I guess that is Red Dawn speak for "I just ran out of argument" because I can no longer refute Jimbo's rhetorically superior assault?

Are you now busy trying to learn how to spell Saddam Hussein's name correctly?

Let's see ... it is I before E except after SADDAM! 😀

It could be several things. First, sure he is working within the UN, but at the same time he constantly says that he will act without them if they vote against us. I think some people are worried about the precedent that will be sent if we attack without the support of the UN. They could also be worried that we are so enamored with Iraq that we are ignoring the (some would argue) greater threat in NK. Regardless of what policy they are protesting, if they do it peacefully, they are executing the rights they have that makes this country great. The people I have talked to in my area are generally not anti-war, they just think we need to get the support of the UN first. Still others are worried that we should be worrying about the country with the nukes that can hit us and are constantly talking about WW3 and turning our cities to ashes, rather than the dictator of Iraq who is only trying to get one nuke...maybe.

It has been my experience each person's argument has it's individual merits, and a combination of the views of different sides gives you a better view of the situation rather than only paying attention to one side.

🙂

Hey kami, your dues are overdue! Have you been spending your money on more LOTR paraphenilia? 😉
 
If you disagree with me about my country's decisions, we can go to a coffee shop and talk about it.

If you burn my country's flag, you're an enemy to my country and ought to be shot.

Wow! You should be murdered for burning a flag! Not sure I agree with that one!

Antiwar protesters burned and ripped up flags, flowers and patriotic signs at a Sept. 11 memorial that residents erected on a fence along Whittier Boulevard days after the terrorist attacks in 2001 and have maintained ever since.

What nice caring people. I just love the way the police reacted too.

However, although officers witnessed the vandalism Saturday afternoon, police did not arrest three people seen damaging the display because they were "exercising the same freedom of speech that the people who put up the flags were,' La Habra Police Capt. John Rees said Monday.
3 People? Doesn't sound like the whole Anti War Movement to me, sounds more like 3 assholes who should have been arrested for vandalism.

Agreed, uhhhh, except for the shooting part.
 
the anti-war protestors are starting to sound like Muslims. The large majority claim to be peaceful, but like to make excuses when a few of their flock go crazy.

Reminds me of that Shaggy song "Wasn't me"

Stop clouding the issue with facts! 😉

Stop pretending that this is an isolated case of destruction caused by the anti-war crowd.

Unfortunately many on the Anti War side are just as misinformed as guys like Jimbo are. You could say that they and Jimbo are joined at the hip by their ignorance of the situation.

I'm sure if you all try really hard you can find a few hundred idiots out of the millions/10's millions of anti-war protesters world-wide. As I said above. This is a minority thing.

Not sure anyone read this first time around.

I have a feeling that Jimbo, Nitemare and Corporate Recreation were busy defacing flags last night...

Oh informed one! Have you learned to spell that Iraqi guy's name yet?

I'm still LOL at ya!

You have yet to prove me as misinformed, joint boy!

Now I am pretending...interesting. Almost as interesting as you proclaiming to know my views without ever even talking to me. I guess up on that pedestal you are on, you can just see more...
