Our Friend, Skye, Was Physically Assaulted
By a peace protester. I told you those peace protesters were violent. That this happens at all is a disgrace - that it happened to Skye, who is always pleasant and reasonable, is a double disgrace. That it was a male striking a female is just even worse. We're behind you Skye - and so angry that this happened. We know that you have the support and strength of those who stand with you weekly in West Chester. We want you to know that you have our support as well. The perpetrator is not the sharpest knife in the drawer, as he committed this assault while obviously being filmed. I know that is small comfort to our Skye, who had to experience the abuse - recorded or not.
Troll and I have witnessed the nastiness and violence of the peace protesters. We have also heard some horror stories. Nothing has ever happened to us personally. Violent peace protesters are an interesting, if sometimes dangerous, breed. The irony of their actions is not apparent to them. This is what we face. Stupid-asses who can oftentimes be violent while screaming how they are for peace. Stupid-asses who will rip your sign to shreds while screaming how they are for freedom of speech.
Well - it is a free country and they can scream all they want. We do live in the United States of America, afterall. Our right to offend is still recognized (thank goodness), but we certainly have no right to physically assault another for no good reason. Thank goodness for that, too.
Thank you Skye - and thanks to all of you brave souls standing together in West Chester. Thank you for showing up every week to let the world know that many of us support and love our troops.

Wow. Hope all is safe with your friend. I havent been to Skye's blog before but I just might head over and see what she is about. Poor woman.
They just prove how the "Tolerant" Liberals are anything but.
Tweetey, Skye is intelligent and articulate. She is funny and compassionate. I think you would enjoy her blog. She attends many functions and protests and shares her experiences on her blog.
Abouna - most leftists are exceedingly violent and intolerant. The fight with them will never end.
Thank Skye for me, her own blog's too busy - and I hope she lawyers-up and takes all his "free" speech and makes some coin out of it - something they are unable to do because of their infantile behavior in the first place. Heh.
I went to her blog but hope i got the right one.. but off the topic i e-mailed you earlier when you get a minute. just hope it doesnt come up blank. I have been having troubles with e-mailing people and them coming up blank when opened..
Just amazing how hypocritical those loons can be and to think it was a dude who did this!?! Hopefully Syke will get a good lawyer and go after this coward with full force.
I will, DC. I think this guy gave the cops a hard time, too, and he's in some trouble for that as well. What he did was inexcusable.
Tweets - got your email and responded. I haven't had any luck finding my afghan yet. :-(
Mr. GG - unreal, isn't it?? I hope she goes after him, too.
Taking and destroying a sign is a form of Robbery, a felony which may be resisted by any means including the use of deadly force. Anyone who attempts to rob me should first make peace---With his/her creator. (I am NOT a pacifist!)
Good to see your comment, James! Many peace protesters are really awful - no respect for private property and no understanding of freedom of speech. They're terrible. They also leave mountains of trash wherever they protest...they'll just throw it on the street.
Hey, working girl, remember how relaxing it used to be to be able to go in any time you wanted to and dash off a post about whatever? This working really takes a lot of time, doesn't it? 'chuckle'
Here's something that might relax you a bit.

CA - I loved the video of you and your wife singing. You guys are great. Thanks!
I blogged about this too, Grizzly Mama!
We're all pulling for Skye, and we right conservatives are hanging together!
Keep up the good work!
Here's another assault by the "peace"-lovers.
Here are the updated links for the protest clashes I reported on in 2003.
