Anti-War Protests Target Wounded at Army HospitalWonderful people - protesting at the one place where they might gain support. Instead, this segment of Jerry's Kids are showing - one again - just how moronic the anti-war/anti-Bush/anti-using-your-freaking-brain crowd really is.Washington (CNSNews.com) - The Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington, D.C., the current home of hundreds of wounded veterans from the war in Iraq, has been the target of weekly anti-war demonstrations since March. The protesters hold signs that read "Maimed for Lies" and "Enlist here and die for Halliburton."
The anti-war demonstrators, who obtain their protest permits from the Washington, D.C., police department, position themselves directly in front of the main entrance to the Army Medical Center, which is located in northwest D.C., about five miles from the White House. Among the props used by the protesters are mock caskets, lined up on the sidewalk to represent the death toll in Iraq. See Video
Code Pink Women for Peace, one of the groups backing anti-war activist Cindy Sheehan's vigil outside President Bush's ranch in Crawford Texas, organizes the protests at Walter Reed as well.
Some conservative supporters of the war call the protests, which have been ignored by the establishment media, "shameless" and have taken to conducting counter-demonstrations at Walter Reed. "[The anti-war protesters] should not be demonstrating at a hospital. A hospital is not a suitable location for an anti-war demonstration," said Bill Floyd of the D.C. chapter of FreeRepublic.com, who stood across the street from the anti-war demonstrators on Aug. 19.
"I believe they are tormenting our wounded soldiers and they should just leave them alone," Floyd added.
It's lke the dopes that protest outside of recruiting centers; like yelling at the sky caus eit rains.
IMO, here's the place where rogue old guys should run over something in their pick-up trucks....

Comments on Say What? Yelling at Wounded Soldiers
They taunt the casualties of war, because they know that if they went and protested uninjured soldiers, they'd get their candy asses kicked up between their shoulderblades.
Despicable, cowardly ghoulish bastards (spit).
