Inauguration Protesters: Waaahhh!

I don't know when the US Constitution was changed to mandate a free speech entitlement within any specific geographic location? This issue has always been about the left-wing media's agenda and common greed - public confrontations are more profitable 'news' items. You didn't hear these kinds of complaints when protesters were confined at the DNC.

It doesn't matter where protesters are allowed to protest. If the protesters are left of center and radical, especially if they are fanatical and violent, they will get plenty of coverage from the old media. If the protesters are right of center and fanatical and violent, they will get plenty of coverage from the old media. If the protesters are right of center and calm, and especially if their message is effective, they will get NO coverage unless it is highly edited, out of context, and clearly a hatchet job. Can anyone say Swift Boat Veterans? Or even pro-military veterans in general?

The last part of the article hits home:

Carafano said the protesters' complaints often fall on deaf ears because most people agree that there are good reasons why an area needs to be secured, and that gangs of protestors need not be given the opportunity to disrupt the proceedings.

"People who argue that this is creating some kind of suppression are just crying wolf," he said. "Sooner or later nobody is going to be listening."

But it's really beside the point. A suicide bomber would love for them to be closer to his target and a bunch of extra infidel blood would just be gravy - 'Allahu Snackbar, fellow martyrs'. You'd think that protesters would appreciate not being close enough to become infiltration targets for terrorists.

I'm beginning to wonder, considering the article's comments from that ANSWER moron Becker and the clearly biased oversimplifications from Pena of the CATO Institute, if that's what it will take for the remaining naive fringe among us to wake up and smell the Sarin gas. Do you think ol' 'my speech isn't free unless I can sit in the President's lap while I run my mouth' Becker is prepared for his Jihadi 'recruitment'?

Adios MF,
