#1 I can't even begin to say how angry this makes me. Many of my friend's are in the Vermont National Guard. Vermont has always, and still does have a high percentage of it's population serving in the armed forces. Unfortunately, the majority of the population were born outside of the state, many are from New York (ever heard Bernie Sanders speak?). The state is now dominated by ex-flower children and trustifarians who sneer at the hardworking native Vermonter's and call them woodchucks (woodchuck=redneck). Please don't give Vermont up to Canada. A better solution would be for Vermonter's to rise up and kick the flatlanders out. Remember, Ethan Allen and the Green Mountain Boys had been hard at work doing this for years before the Revolution distracted them.

#4 You know, for the life of me, I simply cannot figure out why the anti-war movement seems to be losing ground in this country. How could such a brave, noble, rational bunch be ignored by the vast majority of our society?

It must be... THE CIA! Yes! That's it! It's their MIND CONTROL LASER BEAMS!!!!!! That's what it must be! Quick! Quick! Get some aluminum foil and make a hat! Throw some rocks! Puke and excrete in the streets! Block traffic! Organize bands of young men to attack lone women! THAT WILL FIGHT OFF THE POWER OF THE EVIL CIA MIND CONTROL LASERS!!!

All together now!

All's we are saaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaying is give Saddam a chaaaaaaaaaaaaaance...

#5 They were probably on their way home from a peace rally. But, they really DO support the troops, even though they think they're murdering baby killers.
And Anonymous. Stick your head back up your ass and go to sleep, dewd.

#6 Anonymous/Murat; it is so like an authoritarian ass-clown like you to generalize a gang of teenaged thugs into representing an entire state. Doing so is the entire essence of your ideology.

#7 FYI, per vermont law, assaulting a person simply due to the fact they are wearing their military uniform is a Hate Crime and carries a sentence of up to 5 years in prison.

Time for those little rock throwers to learn what freedom is by losing theirs.

#10 Vermont for Manitoba sounds fair...

#11 Jason I think that Vermont is suffering from the same desease that Washington and Oregon are. Namely brainless buttheads moving there from Caliofornia or New York. And just one question as it is near spawning time on Lake Champlain( I think we should rename it to somethimg other than a French name )is the favorite tackle for northern pike still a 30-30 or a 30.06?

#12 I read this on Sgt. Stryker's blog first. Here's my comment there: These brats need a lesson in manners. They should be rounded up and sent to Marine boot camp for the summer. I'm sure they'll have a totally different attitude when they finish. The longer the adults in this country tolerate this kind of bs, the worse it's going to get.

#13 I'm not Murat (second comment). I was just amused of the fact that you are willing to toss out states because some silly teenagers there behaved in an irresponsable way. Better go and read your highlighting again. And your own comments. And then use your brains for a change.

#14 The sergeant said she believed the protesters had taken part in an anti-war demonstration in Montpelier that day.

Called it!

#15 Sorry, anonymous authoritarian, my comments stand. They are also a subtle rebuke to the original poster since they are not in fact consistent with his ideology, as they are with yours. Whether you literally are Murat is irrelevant, jackboot left-tards are interchangeable by their own strenuous effort.

#16 BTW, anonymous authoritarian, if you're not Murat you're someone who learned English from him. "amused of"?

#17 Ahh,Anonamous
