Well, I have a different take on this. As much as I dislike John Kerry, he has the right to go to the Wall as much as anyone. Unhindered/harassed,etc.

I am one of the original donor$ to this project known as The Wall. Also, an annual donor and at times, in between. The Wall must be maintained. At one time, some of the panels were cracking. Had to be replaced. A new light system is being installed. This Wall was built by Vietnam Vets and those interested in Honoring our Fallen.

Much info can be found @ www.vvmf.org

Anyone has the right to visit without being told "I am here to escort you away from the Wall because you do not belong here." An LEO could perhaps escort a malcontent or disruptor from the Wall, but Mr.Sampley was acting in no official capacity, assuming this whole thing happened in the first place. He, nor anyone else has such authority. The Wall belongs to us all...

Thank you donozark for your comments. Sometimes things are carried just a wee bit too far.
