Emily Cassidy gets the Useful Idiot award for 2007 along with Most Stupid Mother. I pity her children; their Mother is a total victim of the "Thought Police". Soldiers carry guns lady - what did your children watch on television today? Most likely sex and violence.

The local community weighed in, and the city received 390 calls and e-mails in support of the statue's planned placement. Only four messages opposing the plan came in, Narde said.

In the interest of fairness these four people will be interviewed by the msm, and one in support of the statute will interviewed.

Her children go to publik scewl. They should know what a gun is! It is what all of the dope dealers pack in their baggy pants. As a publik scewl teechur, I say this with extreme confidence.

[JOAT]

Cowering simpleton is obviously afraid of the gun itself, failing to understand it is only a tool to be used for good or evil.

Stupid cattle like these roam our streets, regurgitating what the man on the TV told them to 'think.'

What about the children!?

Don't just pluck it down in the middle of children," Cassidy told Cybercast News Service. "In their eyes, it's just a nine-foot guy with a gun."

Unless the statue has a full-time guard, it will be defaced, damaged or destroyed within days by anti-violence pacifists.

“”It should be used as a learning tool. Don’t just pluck it down in the middle of children,” Cassidy told Cybercast News Service. “In their eyes, it’s just a nine-foot guy with a gun.””

Or perhaps kids are SMART enough to understand he’s PROTECTING them....???

OK, so put a CONDOM in his hand.....I’m sure the PC crowd won’t even NOTICE....!!!

[Trailerpark Badass]

I like to believe there was a time when the stupid were less eager to broadcast their stupidity to the world.

[Hi Heels]

I got a better idea, lady. Teach the child what the gun IS FOR. Might save his stupid little life some day...eesh.

[barker]

The man being honored was a Navy Seal. That tells me all I need to know about him. He died protecting her right to be a whinny little you-know-what. I would see this statue as Danny still protecting them. Thank goodness the city didn’t cave because of her.

"It's a stretch to compare a memorial to a war hero and the Columbine shooters," she said. "It's hard to imagine how you could find a connection between the two."<

Not hard at all.... it just takes drooling leftist bozos with nothing better to do with their pitiful lives.....

[Fedupwithit]

Here's how things are going to go at the elementary school when the statue is put up...

"Come now children, stop looking at that bad statue of the man with the gun, and let's continue our reading of 'Johnny's Got Two Mommies'.."

Although Cassidy said she didn't know the number, she said a "large group, a majority" of the people she had spoken to had similar concerns about the location of the statue.

Reminds me of the female writer in the '70s who said "I don't know how Nixon won - I don't know anyone who voted for him".

[headstamp]

“She stressed she wasn’t comparing the school shooters to the soldiers,......”

Then what the hell is the problem, bi***!

How about actually TEACHING the children who this noble man, Danny Dietz was and that he gave up his life fighting to keep us safe here at home and the gun was a tool that he used to do so.

Damned jackass this broad is.

[SevenMinusOne]

Very glad to see this statue/memorial of SEAL Danny Dietz will stand as is.

Hell of a warrior.

SEAL Lt. Michael Murphy who was part of the SEAL RT along with D. Dietz and was also killed in action will very likely be receiving the MOH.

And rightfully so. When most of the details are released about the entire fight (if that happens) it will be recorded as one of the most courageous demonstrations of American warriors in our nation's history.

These SEALs where vastly out numbered, in deep, deep enemy territory, high in the mountains.....and fought a ferocious firefight that lasted several hours....

[ronnie raygun]

This is the emasculation of males in this country, Johnny is not allowed to play with guns he plays with dolls now!
This is a man who protects America! how? with a weapon! not a fly swatter.Teach your child why he carries a gun and why he dedicates his life to preserve ours!

[real saxophonist]

These are more than the 'concerned moms' they want you to think they are. They've been at it a while. From this article we get this:

Columbine parent Linda Cuesta said she endured long, panicked moments after the shooting desperately looking for her son. During that time she bargained with God. If her son made it out safely, she'd go to work against guns.

Her son escaped safely, and Cuesta has found a cause.

"I used to be polite, and I tried to understand the need for citizens to own guns, to own arsenals," she said.

"I'm not polite anymore. I want the NRA out of this city and out of this state."

There are thousands of military monuments in the United States, and a large portion of them feature weapons, Tim Minz, the city's museum director, said in a memo.

The Doughboy statue, entitled "The Spirit of the American Doughboy", which once stood in Garfield Park, has been restored and given a place of honor in the new Soldier Field. The life-size Doughboy, sculpted in the early 1930's of sheet metal and cast bronze, according to its sculptor E.M. "Dick" Viquesney of Spencer, Indiana, represents "a World War I infantryman advancing through No Man's Land through stumps and barbed wire entanglements, his rifle in one had and a grenade held high in the other".

Emily Cassidy will be the next cindy sheehan when her child grows up and enlists in spite of her. Must be a married name, if she were truly of Irish descent, her children would be fighters.
