Ok ... let’s rip down that Vietnam Vet’s wall, or maybe we can just spray paint over the names. Naturally, we’ll have to go into Arlington Cemetery and pull out every headstone with a name on it as well. < /sarcasm off>

Either we have freedom of the press, or we do not. I’ve read the Constitution (with emphasis on the Bill of Rights) and do not recall seeing the disclaimer that the bills are only for a select group; and on a subject that people approve of.

I have the right to speak my mind, you have the right not to listen. As long as I do not force you to listen, you do not have the right to silence me.

Using the names of those who made the greatest sacrifice to further an anti-war political stance is despicable; however trashing the Constitution to prevent these degenerates from airing their views is far worse - it is evil.

What makes it different and unacceptable is it is an overt and aggressive ploy to erode the will of the citizens of this nation to fight a war for our very survival.

If it is done to aide the goals of the enemy it is an enemy action being committed by a domestic enemy for the benefit of a foreign enemy.

Then there’s the tired ol’ pomo saw that all things are equal and nothing is of value.

This used to be understood at the gut level of the majority of our citizenry.
