This jerk has the right to his opinion, no matter how offensive it may be. He does not have the right to interfere in the recruitment process, but I believe he has the right to protest.
It seems that 2,000 feet is a little excessive. Think how upset people would be if it were abortion protesters that were ordered to keep 2,000 feet from the clinic they were protesting, or if freepers were ordered to keep 2,000 feet from the people they were freeping.

It's ok for a specific person who poses a threat, not for a group that has never been charged.

This guy went out of his way to be at this recruiting station. He is from the Scranton area, which is at least a 45 minute drive on the Interstate (81) from Hazleton. 2000 feet, which is less than 1/2 mile, shouldn't be a problem.

This isn't about "opinion", it's about getting in the paper for furthering his "candidacy". Peaceful assembly and demonstration of opinion does not include verbally abusing people who are just doing their jobs.
There are many avenues for this perspon to state his "opinion" without causing disruption and heaving verbal abuse like it was a campaign brochure.
I'm pretty close to concluding that all third parties, are liberals.
