For this to be vandalism, there had to be an ill-will intent

Someone is smoking what they're confiscating.

see posts 127 and 172

post 127: the desk sgt also told me that part of the reason that nothing was done was bacause of advice of the city atty and the fact that the person who owned the property had said nothing.

post 172: He stated to me on the phone that no police witnissed the incident! He asserted that the police were not on the scene, and were only notified after the fact. He also stated that a report has been taken, but barring witnisses he did not hold out much hope for a prosocution. This seems to conflict with something else he told me, which was that if the police had gone in to break up the protest there would have been a 180 degree turn in how the article was written, and it would have made the police look like bad guys. Of course, one has to wonder if the police weren't there then how could they have "gone in" and broken up the the protest?

The attorney was mentioned as a reason in #127, not #172; has the spin started?????

I know people in that area of Whittier and La Habra. The people in the entire area have privately maintained that memorial since 911.

I just want to thank all those in the area that supported this memorial. I now understand it's all being put back up.......

(posted by "CPatterson" at Little Green Footballs):

To all “peace protestors” out there who wish to protest the the upcoming/actual (depending on your timing) war in Iraq by burning the flag, please observe the following rules of etiquette.

1. Purchase your own flag, flammable liquid and ignition source.

2. Soak flag in flammable liquid before arriving at the protest (to reduce the chance of splashing fuel onto non-inflammatory protestors).

3. Squeeze any excess liquid from flag before arriving at the protest (see rule 2).

4. Make sure you are standing on a fire proof surface and at a safe distance from other protestors and spectators.

5. Wrap yourself in flag before igniting.

Thank you, and have a nice day.

Fight the Red Menace:

The "International Womens' Day" protests last weekend were people marching in support of another Communist holiday (check into the origins of the day).

We need to set Generation H(itler) straight on what is and what is not free speech. These little snots can't really help themselves, they have been indoctrinated by demonic liars like Howard Zinn and the Hollywood Axis all their lives.

Destroying the property of others is not free speech. If some crack-smoking trust-fund loser wants to buy his own flag and burn it, that is one thing, if he destroys mine, I will bust his head.

Interfering with a military operation is not free speech, it is military action on behalf of a foreign power, and treason if you are an American citizen. "Shoot on sight" is a valid response, and I think it is time for a showdown on this in the courts.

Denying someone else the right to speak, as by heckling a non-communist or a terror-opponent on campus, is not free speech. This should be axiomatic, but post-modernism (the gonorrhea of philosophy) allows for almost anything, so long as it asserts superior social status via displays of authoritarian hypocrisy.

Assaulting passers-by is not free speech. This one alone would put Greenpiss and its jock-nazi goon squad out of business if it were enforced.

If Gen-H'ers have to be re-educated at bayonet-point, so be it. That is our obligation to the young.

What do you expect from a state which elects Barbara Boxer and Nancy Pelosi?

You idiot, what about the people and neighbors of that entire area that have privately maintained that memorial since 911. It has been standing since 911. I know people in that area, and they are great for putting this up and maintaining it.

Idiot? I'm not blaming all of the people...just the 80% of the state which is absorbed by the liberal/socialist morons which hate America. I can't help people who live behind the TOFU CURTAIN which has descended across the California border and seperated freedom lovers from the rest of America. (P.S. - That reference to TOFU CURTAIN is a cheap rip-off of the great Winston Churchill's speech about the Iron Curtain, but I think it applies.)

Sadly a TOFU CURTAIN has descended across the West Coast of these United States. We must help the freedom loving people of Whittier and other free cities and counties that aspire to have the Bill of Rights, restored to all.

California is filled with nuts and wackos and its no surprise why they rehired Gray Davis here. You think they would learn...

Some of you are pissing me off.

It's also filled with great patriotic people. Californians that live in that entire area, that have gone out, and bought flag poles, made posters, flowers, and have maintained that private memorial since 9/11. No one told them to do this. The people of that area are great for doing this.

Don't slam them.

Bet the rent, you don't have a privately maintained 911 memorial, in your NY neighborhood.

I agree with your statements ... except I don't condone violence, even with the brats; everything else you stated, I agree with wholeheartedly.

Of course, it's the very same state where the people in that area maintained and supported this memorial since 911. But it's easy to shoot your mouth off isn't it?

What's wrong with Taranto and crew at Best of the Web??? They seem to have ignored the very meat of the matter, that police who witnessed the vandalism turned and looked the other way.

Our very "Protectors" have been co-opted. America is in danger.

"God bless Texas and Tennessee!" Those communist Creeps would have had their A$$## shot had they tried that crap here! We relize that the police can't be everywhere all the time, but when they are they have been so confused to what is legal and what is not, that they are generally ineffective. I am so greatfull for the 2nd Amendment, and will fight to see that no commie Lib ever takes it away. And yes I do own several guns!

Friends I believe that it is time to take to the streets and take back our country. "STOMP A DEMMOCRAP TODAY!!!"

I just contacted a friend that lives in that area, he told me the memorial is being put back up as we speak and stated that there were news teams at the site.

Remember, it was the good people of that area that put up, supported and maintained the memorial since 911. I personally called the La Habra Police dept and the woman told me that they are getting nasty calls from all over the country over the response from Capt Rees.

lumping us all together. It really pisses me off.

I am really sorry! I didn't realize it was a touchy subject for you.

I do know exactly how you feel, though. I'm from Michigan.
