#1 So, just like the jihadis.

#2 Disclaimer: I live in the Olympia area.

I advise all here to note that this crap results from a very-very small group of moonbats, students from Evergreen College and dregs from Seattle assisted by a lame duck city councilman, T J Johnson.
There are more people standing in line at the many local Starbucks right now than attended this demo.

With very little effort it would be possible to run a counter demo of hundreds, if not thousands of people from this area. The question is, are they worth it?

#3 FYI - Evergreen College is where our 'beloved' St. Pancake came from.

Looks like they should be charged with Child Endangerment at least.

#4 Yeah, it's easy to solve, Child Services take the kids, the parents get executed for treason in a time of war for attempted sabotage of the supply line to the troops.

No mercy.

#5 As 18-wheelers towing cargo began rolling down Market Street about five minutes later, two protesters lay down in the road, creating a human blockade.

THUMP...THUMP
What was that, Mike?
Dunno. I think it was either speed bumps or a human blockade...

#6 Protesting is one thing. You want to go run out in front of an 18-wheeler with the misguided notion that semi-trucks (and DC9 cats) magically endow their drivers with the ability to see through steel hoods (and bulldozer blades) go right ahead.

Placing (and teaching) small children to do so is irresponsible and negligent.

#7 CrazyFool: Placing (and teaching) small children to do so is irresponsible and negligent.

#8 Washington state law on child abuse and neglect.

What is the legal definition of child abuse and neglect? [1]
Washington State law defines child abuse or neglect as follows: Child abuse or neglect shall mean the injury, sexual abuse, or negligent treatment or maltreatment of a child by any person under circumstances which indicate that the childs health, welfare and safety is harmed thereby. (RCW 26.44.020)

Negligence is further defined: Negligent treatment or maltreatment shall mean an act or omission which evinces a serious disregard of consequences of such magnitude as to constitute a clear and present danger to the childs health, welfare and safety. (RCW 26.44.020)

Clearly the person or persons who brought the children to this protest as well as the parents and guardians who allowed the exploitation and reckless endangerment of these children should be facing criminal charges.

#9 Looks like they should be charged with Child Endangerment at least.

Yup, positioning a child in an active lane of traffic certainly qualifies for that.

So, just like the jihadis.

Ding, ding, ding, we have a winner! Ahmadinejad's sought after convergence with the left's "global progressive front" is yielding up an obscene crossover in practices. One can only wonder when it will decline to the level of Arafat surrounding himself with ~~little boys~~ schoolchildren. It speaks volumes that the leftists feel so threatened that they have begun to use their own children as human shields. Maybe they were afraid of getting the Brian Willson treatment.
