Anti-War protesters

LZMF1 · 03-21-2003, 03:26 AM

i remember a few weeks back before all of this shit escalated there was an anti-war demonstration in the town that i live in.

i drove past it just to check it out.....there were a bunch of them out there and it was a bit chilly and rain had been forcasted. the protest didn't last very long.the second it started raining all of them scattered across the street to starbucks or just went home.

now lemme ask you this............if you were that up in arms and opposed to something and wanted to get your point across would you plan accordingly and dress approprietly. obviously none of these people did. i think they all just do it to feel like they can make a difference or they're a part of something when in reality they don't make a difference. they looked really pathetic scurrying off like rodents when it began to rain.

it was really kind of sad. :disappointed:

Useful for creating dis-order. Then using your outrage to take away your freedoms without protest.

for some reason the fact they're not working really irks me. its not their lawlessness. just the fact that im at work and they're out "exercising their freedom". my fucking taxes are paying their unemployment. cocksuckers.

Why are the Beastie Boys pro-liberation of Tibet and anti-liberation of Iraq. Are they racists?

Anti-war protestors these days are glory-hounds trying to capture those halcyion days of the 60's. Whether they be old burn-outs trying to remind themselves when they thought they mattered, or that idealistic, painfully ignorant youth jumping the bandwagon. What is clear these days about protesting is that there is a serious lack of knowledge on the subject they are protesting.

This aside, I'd like to remind everyone that disagreeing and dissent towards a political issue does not equal not supporting troops.

Here's some blatant plagiarism, but it adequately explains the term:

USEFUL IDIOTS

Lenin called them "Useful Idiots," the intellectuals, writers, politicians and socialist activists in the West who, while not Party members, promoted the Bolshevik scheme of world revolution. His successor Stalin continued the use of the phrase and today, even after the total collapse of the communist system (estimated even by left-wing historians to have been responsible for over 100 million deaths over its 70-year genocidal run), the Useful Idiots don't appear to have received the word. They just go right on spouting the party line.

You know the people I'm talking about. They are for peace and always against war, even after September 11. They think patriotism is racist and abusive. They think people who achieve do so at the expense of others, that European-descended Americans purposefully deny education and income to all others. They fight religion on every front, most notably in the public schools. (Okay to teach Islam, not okay to have Christmas pageants). They think a free-market economy has ruined the environment. They say they adhere to the principles of equality while pushing for special status for certain groups.

They see Western civilization as racist, chauvinist and homophobic and strive to denigrate the reality of its success at very turn. They have no sense of humor and rarely let facts get in the way of their positions. They never stand and fight, preferring to retreat while labeling their opponents "abusive" for daring to air out the facts of the matter.

The Useful Idiots earnestly believe that human beings cannot make their own decisions about whether to smoke, wear a seatbelt, or eat the right foods. The people are the masses, you see, and they must be controlled by the all-knowing central government and march to the erratic drills of the advocacy groups that have created a cottage industry in this politically correct era. Today, a new federal state or local law is passed every hour to protect the citizenry from itself. Basically, the Useful Idiots hate America because it is constructed on the principle of individual liberty. The Soviet Union may have failed, they say, but its principles are still valid. The state knows best and the revolution must go on until America itself fulfills the socialist utopia that began with the Bolsheviks.

In the U.S. and around here, their policies dominate the public dialogue in politics. They even have their own Popular Front radio network (just like South American Marxist guerillas) called NPR that extols the virtues of their initiatives with no objectivity and certainly no criticism. Journalism schools have become anti-American activist cells, sending out brainwashed zealots to fix America, to get us to see the collective truth. Highlights of their successes can be seen in the abandonment of objectivity in news articles, the refusal to allow honest free speech, a persistent anti-Americanism and a general decline in the quality of political debate.

actually that sounds like a mish mosh of many different, and many times opposing political viewpoints.

Did anyone see the citizens of Iraq beating the likenesses of Saddam with their shoes today? Once again, everyone BUT the iraqi's are protesting this war. Atleast here we have the resources to make picket signs, they have to use their clothing.
