No, it's NOT The Left that censors. Is THIS the kind of action that MLK or Gandhi would have endorsed? I do not call this kind of action "civil disobedience". THAT would imply CIVILITY. To all those there- Nice work, children.http://news.
Did they attack the military, or were they just protesting? That is my question. They shouldn't attack the military even if they are against the war. I'm against the war, but I support the troops. I do not advocate hurting or insulting any of the troops. It is not their fault that they are in Iraq. They do what they have to. I also support anyone that protests the war, provided they do it peacefully.

Ripping up the Army literature, throwing things at them, even yelling things at them, is, I'm sorry, childish, unseemly and probably (destruction of property) illegal. And I would never participate in that kind of silliness even were it a cause I believe in. Kids today...
I didn't see anything about throwing things or anything like that in the picture. Where is the actual story. Would like to read it. Can't seem to find it.
"After about a 10-minute standoff during which protesters tore up U.S Army literature,"
Maybe they didn't throw things, I thought that's what they were doing in the picture. Instead they were just being extremely rude (and somewhat intimidating). I apologize for my misstatement, but feel it detracts little from my point.
