If I saw them defacing a veteran's memorial I would make a citizens arrest and let the police handle them. What a bunch of liberal losers.. disgusting
On another memorial outside the Capital they used their purple seiu chalk to write on it. Anyone who says these baboons were well behaved and did not cause damage needs their heads examined.
Actually, I suspect that our state's war dead would be appalled at the un-democratic, even anti-democratic depths that the state has sunk to. Especially those that died fighting fascism.
@bart1861 I realize you may not want to hear this. But people who saw concentration camps, death marches and the aftermath of the racial supremacy ideologies in both the pacific and european theatres would find the restrictions on public bargaining (that the American president of the time, FDR, considered essential and obvious) just a *bit* short of "fascism". Unfair? perhaps... unjustified? perhaps... partisan political point scoring? maybe... but "fascist"? surely you're joking.
@jtkeri, one of Hitler’s first acts outlawed trade unions. Then he dissolved parliament because it was inconvenient to rule through them, demonized his opposition, and suppressed free speech. Wis Repubs weakened unions, legislated in questionable ways to avoid the Dem minority, called opponents thugs and slobs, restricted the ability to peaceably assemble, and ignored the courts. You tell me what that looks like.
@bart1861 Yes, Hitler was also a proponent of gun control. I realize you may have missed this, but Walker's bill had nothing to do with 'trade unions'. FDR made this distinction, and Wisc public workers are now reduced to the dire conditions of US Federal employees. How will they ever survive? I can't believe you seriously wrote "legislated in questionable ways to avoid the Dem minority" about a minority which fled the state to illegitimately prevent quorum.
@bart1861 They called thugs and slobs... thugs and slobs. These slobs did hundreds of thousands of dollars of damage to the capital... all for the express purpose of causing disgust in anyone who actually watched the protests with a neutral eye (as I did at first). They didn't "ignore" the courts, they won in court. But facts are not the currency of this protest.
You know I`m not surprised that they didn`t see this as disrespectful. They are taught to hate our past heros of freedom that they are so blase about.
Those men died so we could express our rights guaranteed to us. Which is the freedom to assemble and petition. This is EXACTLY what they fought for. You're an idiot.
The capitol is turned from a place of reasonerd debate into a tacky carnival. There is no differential any more. Everything (except their message) is leveled beyond reason.
Really, you have to expect this sort of thing from parasitic liberals. They have no clue as to right or wrong. Liberal moral relavatism at its finest.
I'm sorry that older, hopefully wiser and more experienced citizens don't adopt a kinder "mentorship role" with obviously less wise, less experienced citizens when making a very good point. Helping these passionate younger people to see the mistake made, and even helping them correct their ways is appropriate and laudable. Shaming, embarrassing, threatening them is no way to help them understand the emotional sacred meaning attached to a memorial. I was there March 3rd: nothing around memorial.
Damn all the homeless vets, all the bodies double stacked in Arlington, and this is were you decide to make your stand.....in the middle of a protest? Really..... damn
I FUCKING HATE PROTESTERS OUR SOLDIERS FAUGHT AND DIED FOR OUR COUNTRY FUCK U HIPPIES WITH OUT OUR MILITARY OUR COUNTRY WOULD HAVE A FUCKING EXPLOSION EVERY DAY
Funny how people like Vicki McKenna take the same view as this guy... It is far more unpatriotic to unconstitutionally lock the Capitol and cover your body in the American flag!!
Well, there goes the last iota of respect I had for unions. I can't image what the families of those on the memorial are thinking of this. A memorial is made to honour the sacrifices thosr written on it made; it's similar to a grave stone. I wonder, if this memorial had been in a park or cemetary, would would they have considered sticking fliers on it?
Rather they appreciate it or not, the Soldiers honored by that Monument died so that they may have the right to be there. Not everyone appreciates Soldiers and the sacrifices they make, but it does not mean they are not allowed any rights no matter what anyone else believes.
Looks to me like the two that were confronted did not know what to say and started talking in circles. They were more concentrated on there cause and did not realize their mistake. I am a VET and and my wife is currently serving. They are exercising there right as are the two who confronted them, no matter what someone will disagree. I believe they should not have posted anything on the memorial but atlas they did not damage it.
yo, its a piece of stone. war is bad. that's all there is to this. you guys are heckling because you are angry at them personally. you don't care about the war memorial and if you think you do it is because your values are screwed up. if you care about the people on the war memorial you should fight against the war in iraq and afganistan and all the evil in the world, you should protect the soldiers from having to give their livesi n the first place. that is all.
Way to split hairs. It's not like these people are going to come down to the capitol on any given day and purposefully vandalize war memorials. It was a unique situation. There was nothing defacing the front of that memorial. If there was you should've filmed it.
@dijhili - I assume I wouldn't really care, since a piece of stone or rock will never compare or amount to the actual person I've lost, and the current cause for everyone outweighs emotions experienced by my individual self. I say "assume" since I haven't experienced a relatives death as of yet. Perhaps you shouldn't assume things, either.
I hope these people that did this and are soooo clueless take a long look at themselves....they are so out of touch with life....little borged bots they be....it is sad to loose your life and to become a bot of another....who would not check to see what they were sticking their stuff on, and the man said that there was junk all around the front of the memorial,..,.clueless ones...did you not notice the flags too...and why try and compare your cause whatever that be to your shameful disrestpect!?
Sooooo, peeps take the garbage off the war memorial....why did you not just do that, say so sorry that I am disrespecturl, instead of arguing and excusing yourselves....this is such a sad reflection on these people, goodness, heart breaking. And thank you to the man and woman who took a mighty stand for the heros and their loved ones, and our nation.
@62Flashback You do realize Wisconsin Criminal Code Sect. 943.017 does NOT make taping freedom posters to war memorials a crime, right?
Wisconsin Criminal Code Sect 943.017
943.017 Graffiti.
943.017(1)
(1) Whoever intentionally marks, draws or writes with paint, ink or another substance on or intentionally etches into the physical property of another without the other person's consent is guilty of a Class A misdemeanor.
Taping freedom posters is NOT marking, drawing, writing or etching
@keepemhonest2 That still don't give a person the right to post bullshit on a war memorial! You ever heard of respect asshole? Probably not.....Those men died for your Freedom, so at least give them some respect!!
Do you realize some War Memorials are buildings. Do you & hubby freak out when people go inside those war memorial buildings. Do you & he take your video camera to the door of those war memorial building and chastise & berate people entering?
Sometimes people stand on or sit on war memorials and have their pictures taken. Do you & your hubby lose it when that happens? Do you rush in with your video and make complete fools of yourselves
@keepemhonest2 taking a picture at a war memorial is completely different than putting posters and random shit all over one. Usually when when people visit a war memorial they are there to honor the fallen and those that serve. These people are not. I don't care what the cause is. It is disrespectful.
@VeTTeMaNC486 "respect" you don't know the meaning of the word. "Respect" is not taking your camera to a protest with the sole intent of picking a verbal fight you can have 15 min of fame on youtube
Every protester Ann & her hubby encountered were polite & reasonable with but Ann & her violent hubby weren't looking to be reasonable they were looking for a fight (hate much?) In fact, the were trying their best to CONJURE up a fight - it didn't work, the protesters maintained reason
If you think that the couple questioning these protesters were harsh than you would have hated to see me there. I don't care if there is limited space. Your construction paper/finger paintings don't fucking belong on a war memorial.
@3rdGarryOwen Too bad for YOU, oh violent one. NO laws were broken no laws were violated there are NO laws that prevent people from putting freedom posters on war memorials - deal with reality --- there's NOTHING you could have done except make a complete ASS of yourself - like Ann & her hubby did.
@keepemhonest2 I never said it was illegal. I couldn't care less if it was, I'd just punch him in the goddamn face. The ticket and lawsuit from this vagina would still be worth it. I see a reply coming back with..."OMG.... violence doesn't solve anything you neanderthal." Alot of Americans act like the care about their Soldiers, but the sad truth is you (as a nation) dont. Theres more news about some Justin Beiber fag than the fathers and sons that died this week following your President
1) You want to punch a person in the face when they are LEGALLY exercising their 1st Amend. right --and you called 'me" a neanderthal ... hahaha ... um ... oook
2) When you willfully, knowingly & with forethought & malice commit "Aggravated Assault & Battery" - you don't just get a "ticket" - because "Aggravated Assault & Battery is a FELONY -
Get an education - seek help 4 UR violent nature - before UR next home is called PRISON.
@keepemhonest2 Actually no, you stupid bitch. He anticipated you calling HIM a Neanderthal. (Which you actually implied) I don't care that they were "exercising" their 1st amendment rights. I cared that they did it on the motherfucking memorial. Put your protesting shit next to it. Fuck.
@Xcelerometer HA HA HA - Your comment (to me) made me LAUGH OUT LOUD!
1) I am not a female dog -nor female- so I guess you don't know what the word "bitch" means.
2) He anticipated WRONG - no surprise there.
3) So long as there is nothing illegal about taping freedom posters on the back of war memorials or any other "motherfucking memorial" you claim to hold so sacred (yeah right) I and others will continue to exercise our 1st Amendment Rights
@keepemhonest2 as long as douche bags, such as yourself, exercise your smuggness I'll exercise my need to see you cry like a little bitch. Remember, just like when you were picked on in high school. So now you run around with arguements like "Im not a female dog", no shit. Do the world a favor and suck-start a shotgun.
2) He didn't anticipate wrongly. "and you called 'me' a neanderthal" is implying that you're calling HIM a Neanderthal. The implication was pretty strong and obvious.
3) Once again, I don't give a fuck what the laws and amendments say at the moment. There's a virtue called "respect" that is being broken by the protesters. Protesting against whatever it is in the video is fine. However, disrespecting those who died to give you the right to, isn't
Why are all the people in the video labeled as 'liberal'? There are plenty of right-wings at the rallies, too. All upset about the abuse of power going on. It sounds like the people agree and were willing to take the posters down. The videographers were just out looking to stir things up. And they didn't succeed. As for the racist, and anti-sematic remarks, you should be ashamed. Go back to school and get rid of that hate.
@waliehs All of the jerk protesters wanting their "RIGHTS" to collective BLUDGEONING, should realize that the State is broke largely do to them. A LIBERAL is just that; usually a fat slob that can't get enough donuts, get enough pay and turns out to be a 'glutton for punishment'. Start laying off or firing the whiners; they do not deserve anymore than anyone else in the private sector doing the same jobs.
@BudWiser999 Sounds to me like you are a failure in life... couldn't handle your private sector job and you are pissed that for the first time in our nation's history it is safer and more advantagious in terms of stability to have a civil service job. And you prove what an uninformed jackass you by speaking of this as some sort of a liberal vs conservative fight. Eventually, this will reach private sector unions as well which is why the AFL CIO is involved in this fight. Dumbass.
@Knowyerfacts You are the failure because you are too stupid to do your own thing. If you had an ounce of a brain, you would see that the INDIVIDUAL is the key to success, not a Commie Union. It was Lenin that said, "The Unions will be the Schools of Communism", and that is the only thing that Commie said was true. Unions and their lazy "pay to play" goons (like you) could not survive without the "gang of thugs". It's over baby, and the Walker Bill is law. Read your Union newspaper and weep!
@BudWiser999 No Dopey... firstly, don't lump sum me into a group of goons because I do not belong to any union. Secondly, I can assure you that I am not a failure and that my standard of living is better than yours and you know why? Because I am educated and I, unlike you, understand what the fight is about in Wisconsin. This isn't about Lenin you dope, its about equitable treatment and this latest policy is not going to be enforced with equity which is why I can't support the gov't action
@Knowyerfacts Unions DON'T belong in the public sector. It IS all about Lenin and Communism and Collectivism. Why should public employees get more pay and benefits than private sector employees? And why should taxpayers keep giving them raises and fringe benefits? Who really represents the Taxpayer?? Scott Walker represented me and many others and got elected on his promise. He has done what he said he would do and has my complete support. A puke like would keep raising taxes to keep them happy.

@BudWiser999 WRONG AGAIN! Perhaps you should extended your knowledge beyond YOUTUBE and Wikipedia. For the first time in our nations history, it is better to be a civil servant than work in the private sector.. I suppose you never had a problem with civil servants before this phenomenon. Also, this newest legislation is flawed because it does not take aim at all civil servant posts equally but you would not know this because you haven't done your homework. What a good lil sheep you are!
@Knowyerfacts We Win, You lose. That is the result of the election. It is about time that the do nothing government hacks take a hit; they have had it way too good for too long. Gov. Walker and Supreme Court Judge David Prosser will carry the ball to your destruction, and I can't wait for it to happen!
@Knowyerfacts The Jews are behind the majority of labor unions. Andrew Stern, the former head of SEIU, is a Commie Jew. They love raking in the money from the stupes and stumblebums by pitching how much solidarity does, while they count the money (they call it the "Cream") every month while they sit on their Jew asses.
@BudWiser999 Dude you have major issues. And aside from that, its apparent that you dont even understand this latest wave of legislation coming out of Wisconsin. Get a clue. Get a life. Stop blaming jews for your miserable existance. And lastly, come back when you have something worthwhile to contribute.
Can you say, 'Red Herring'. Nice work of turning the focus of the real purpose of the protest. It seems as though those people who are doing the taping of this don't understand the purpose of the protest. They should be pissed at the capital officials who allowed the signs to go up in the first place.
well memorial or not - the cameraman is taking an extremely fallacious position here; discrediting their cause and what they are there fighting for. i believe its called a "Red Herring" or "Straw Man" (though i could be wrong) these morons seek to mislead viewers from the true purpose of the protest and focus on an irrelevant matter. instead of representing the protesters true argument; this memorial issue is used to distract us.
I think if you would have shown more respect to these young people, you would have gotten better cooperation...You came across as bullies and that out weighed the whole point you were trying to make...
.....uugghh.....dirtbags. "We didn't look at the other side".... this is what America has to offer nowadays. I think I'll just stay in Germany. The old Wehrmacht soldiers respect us more, and we were here to kill them originally.
First of all, you two started out ok. Then you got all rude. I would have treated you the same way. They are trying to do something in this corrupt country and you're stupidity is adding to it. Who cares if she doesn't know the rules. How about acting like a human with empathy and a brain...say something like "Hey did you know it's disrespectful to bladhy...." then ask how you can help them fix it. Don't be a jackass. And before you get all mighty, hell yes I'm a veteran, don't speak for me!
I fully believe in respecting all memorials, but seriously, hypocrites of the world unite. How about all the Native sacred places us lovely European immigrants have desecrated with our fantastic WalMart parking lots? People piss and moan when we have to do anthro studies to protect our own historical sites from destruction by commercial development, but then you all throw out the nastiest names you can think of when young people screw up by posting signs where they don't belong. Crimany.
Go get them! I'm glad someone finally made a stand against a bunch of mindless college kids. Go back to your grassy campus to spout your opinions based off other people's thoughts. Most protesters today actually know little to nothing about what they are picketing for other than their friend does it (who is doing it for the same reason)
this just enrages me beyond belief. How dare they desicrate that memorial. To disrespect my brothers and sisters in arms. Try that mess down here in NC, we would've taken care of it for u, TRUST in that. We fight, we sacrifice, we give our lives so some assholes can pretty much spit on us. Because that's what those ppl were doing, spitting on us.
Wow! I've seen all I need to see to know what side I'm on! These protestesters are are the scum of the earth ! This proves it to me beyond a shadow of a doubt.
Desecration, posting of bills or notices, or obscuring of Service Memorials in any fashion are ALL either state and/or federal crimes...Where are the police???
Excuse me WantsHerHeartBack but people who wok very hard to be where they are don't go and wipe their feet on others. People who do work hard have a tendency to respect the sacrifices or others. That memorial is an engraved reminder of that respect.
Well, there's been comments supporting this wretched, fake video that have included racist, anti-Semitic, homophobic and anti-worker remarks that crossed the line into violent vigilante fantasies. I hope everyone posting here realizes that those comments do more to desecrate this memorial than any pieces of paper (which have long been moved) could possibly have done. This includes the silence of all these phony "indignant" commentors--their hypocrisy stinks to high heaven.
@purblind1 What you had to say is so true, but this is YouTube where many cowardice people say rude things from behind their computer. If more people voiced their opinions intelligently than politicians might have to work on issues instead of congenial votes.
Thank You for taking action. No respect it's that simple. Kinda like the lack of respect they have for the tax payers of Wisconsin who voted for Scott Walker. It just shows their greed. Maybe the leftists should read about FDR's thoughts on public service unions and y he was against them.
According to a cursory check of Wisconsin law this is a possible violation of Wisconsin Criminal Code section 943.017. The offense, graffiti, is a Class 1 felony punishable by up to 3.5 years in prison and up to a $10,000 dollar fine.
@alross18058 Do you think that fat slob Capitol Police Chief and his fat slob policeman were interested at keeping order? They were concerned about how many donuts they could gobble down!
"But I personally know one of the men in this video and I know that he has worked VERY hard to be whom he is and has worked very hard to get to where he is in life" --- Umm Others have worked equally hard. Joseph Stalin, Mao Tse Tung, Karl Marx, Jimmy Hoffa, Pol Pot, Jane Fonda .... all heroes of your 'hard-working' acquaintance. Please give us all a break and simply log off.
I'm interested to know whether or not they moved the stuff. If not, I swear by everything holy, I'll go down there with a few of my friends and remove that stuff myself.
@SIG551P Most people like you are ignorant disrespectful pieces of shit and don't deserve to be in this country, so go back to were you come from!! Your mothers cesspool of a vigina ....
3:36 way to maintain the liberal hippie look. I can't believe the rough and tumble Harley driving union folk put up with the flaming lib hippie infiltration of their cause.
@RULAZY2- These are NOT "spoiled brats of the privileged liberals". I'm not saying it's right that they have things posted on the memorial... in fact, I know it's completely wrong to have done so. But I personally know one of the men in this video and I know that he has worked VERY hard to be whom he is and has worked very hard to get to where he is in life. Don't insult the people in the video because you don't know them personally.
THANK YOU for confronting these ignorant, selfish people. I can't believe they would even attempt to justify this disgusting act. Absolutely shameful. That guy trying to say that it was okay because he was "passionate" about his "cause" and using the fallen veterans' as part of his argument to say that they would be in favor of this disrespect....unbelievable. Thank you for being the voice of those who served our country. You are a true citizen.
These are not "workers" these are spoiled brats of the privileged liberal. These idiots have never worked a day in their lives, this is not about workers it's about getting democrats elected and keeping union bosses in the loop of governing the rest of us.
These nut case liberal kids knew they were using a War Memorial as either a backdrop or whatever for their stuff. Do you really think they cared until they were shown they were being exposed for who they really are. I would have at my very best, called a Police Officer over to please speak for me, and tell these kids to clean their crap out NOW!!!.
All you people who don't have a problem with this need to think about your position a little more. What these people did to this memorial is incredibly disrespectful. Imagine you find a loved ones headstone vandalized...imagine that and say it's okay.
This gentleman and his lady friend is being extremely rude. He's not asking them nicely to pull down the display, he's telling them what they did is disrespectful. What is going on is our state is WRONG! And people are getting bent out of shape extremely over displays set up on memorials instead of NICELY asking them to move it.
@lilbp7 Let me ask you something: if I'm found by you at your parents or grandparents grave site and you found me taking a piss on the head stone would you ask nicely for me to stop? What these two people did and the way they approached these dimwits was quite appropriate with a level of temperance I don't think I'd have had. My family has 5 generations of military service and I would have approached this with a degree of anger not seen by these two want to be hippies.
This has now become nothing but a circus. These people are making fools of themselves. Booths? Really? Is this a legitamate protest or a Las Vegas convention?
I grew up in Madison, I am a Viet Nam Vet. Stupid is and stupid does. It reminds me of the protests back then. They are so excited they finally have something to protest they completely disregard their surroundings.
Check out the fat-fuck, donut-eating badge-wearing bastards in the background doing nothing about it. And "purblind1" can kiss my ass. I'd like to get my hands on you, you fucking puss-head.

@purblind1 You've got me confused with somebody else, fuck-world. Go back to your hole. Our deceased Vets will sleep better with your gay-ass friends a few feet away, instead of on top of them. And, "punk," you better consider yourself lucky I, and other Disabled Vets, are not available at your location right now to kick your commie ass, cause I don't talk shit. I was trained by the best to end problems, fucker.
@AmeroJockey You are a punk. And since you got into this by defending Nazis, I gotta remind you that a whole generation of REAL vets already kicked your guys' sorry asses. They would regard you as an absolute disgrace today--that's just how it is. And I don't believe you ever served shit, either. Much less ended any "problems."
@AmeroJockey Yep, purblind1 is a Commie foot soldier, and one of the Obumma ACORN crowd. He can't stand see his mob of cockroaches threatened when the Walker bill goes through and the lights go on. These cockroaches will be sprayed with RAID!
@AmeroJockey Yes, aren't those fat PIG "Capitol Police" a bunch of donut turds. They were'nt interested in keeping the place clean of taped-up posters and graffiti, and arresting anybody, only interested in filling their fat bellies with all the donuts they can eat. What a sickening Commie town!
By the way, the woman they interview, he calls attention to her name tag. 'CELTY WWSS' The WWSS is most likely a spinoff of the 'World Workers Socialist Party'. In other words, the Communist Party of the US. These people are absolute scumbags.
@justonefirefly1 Here's the rest of the quote from the article you used:
"Now, aside from the factoid, if true, providing no real insight into whether collective bargaining is good or bad for education -- there are myriad variables at work other than collective bargaining, none of which does this control for -- but the factoid itself is highly dubious.
Sometimes half truths are more misleading than outright lies.
Once an idiot always an idiot. These people act like ignoramus. They actually look like college educated kids who pretend to be ignorant or uneducated. What's missing? The marijuana, the long, dirty hair, dirty torn shoes and pants.
I have my freedom. I'm not told what to do by some union boss. Try and leave your union and see where that gets you. Your idea of freedom is completely different then mine.
Once an idiot always an idiot. These people act like ignoramus. They actually look like college educated kids who pretend to be ignorant or uneducated. What's missing? The marijuana, the long, dirty hair,
Reasonable or not it doesn't change the fact that they didn't even consider it an issue. This shows the amount of respect these people have for those that have fought and died for our country and for them to be able to protest, NONE-ZERO! How depressing and sad is that?
I actually thought the protesters were more reasonable than the persons recording the video. The protesters were trying to be reasonable. And were understanding how it could be conceived as disrespectful. It was an unintentional error.
The worst part is that the signs posted on the memorial are not even slogans or statements! Its all stupid little signs about "if you need a ride, call..." or "call so & so if you need a place to stay" etc.
So sad, wish that I could of been there to help confront the protesters. This is why teaching history properly showing respect to vets should be a new focus. Never seen such disrespect.
unreal.. and that chick who said she makes war memorials but didn't know this was one.. what a liar! It's plain as day and I bet they didn't even bother or care what it was but just some random object to trash their stuff with. The minute this was known as a war memorial they should have taken their stuff down ASAP. But rather they stand there like immature idiots who cant even speak.
Thanks for posting. It shows their true colors that they don't give a crap about anything but themselves.
I've been a State Employee for over 20yrs, and support the cause in every way. But I also respect the voice of the people, and if one citizen found this offensive I would have taken it down in a heart beat. In Solidarity!!
@BudWiser999 coming from an uneducated and very misinformed youth your comment doesn't really mean anything to those of us that have a real belief in what is happening in State Goverment. Your only worry now is if you have enough zit creme to make it though the week
This should have been an easy fix. Rip all their CRAP off the Memorial and pray they want to try and stop you.
This is yet, another example of the Cry Baby Losers

@bart1861 They called thugs and slobs... thugs and slobs. These slobs did hundreds of thousands of dollars of damage to the capital... all for the express purpose of causing disgust in anyone who actually watched the protests with a neutral eye (as I did at first). They didn't "ignore" the courts, they won in court. But facts are not the currency of this protest.

Shaming, embarrassing, threatening them is no way to help them understand the emotional sacred meaning attached to a memorial. I was there March 3rd: nothing around memorial.

Well, there goes the last iota of respect I had for unions. I can't image what the families of those on the memorial are thinking of this. A memorial is made to honour the sacrifices thosr written on it made; it's similar to a grave stone. I wonder, if this memorial had been in a park or cemetary, would would they have considered sticking fliers on it?

Rather they appreciate it or not, the Soldiers honored by that Monument died so that they may have the right to be there. Not everyone appreciates Soldiers and the sacrifices they make, but it does not mean they are not allowed any rights no matter what anyone else believes.

Looks to me like the two that were confronted did not know what to say and started talking in circles. They were more concentrated on there cause and did not realize their mistake. I am a VET and and my wife is currently serving. They are exercising there right as are the two who confronted them, no matter what someone will disagree. I believe they should not have posted anything on the memorial but atlas they did not damage it.

yo, its a piece of stone. war is bad. that's all there is to this. you guys are heckling because you are angry at them personally. you don't care about the war memorial and if you think you do it is because your values are screwed up. if you care about the people on the war memorial you should fight against the war in iraq and afganistan and all the evil in the world, you should protect the soldiers from having to give their livesi n the first place. that is all.

@dijhili - I assume I wouldn't really care, since a piece of stone or rock will never compare or amount to the actual person I've lost, and the current cause for everyone outweighs emotions experienced by my individual self. I say "assume" since I haven't experienced a relatives death as of yet. Perhaps you shouldn't assume things, either.

@keepemhonest2 taking a picture at a war memorial is completely different than putting posters and random shit all over one.

@AmeroJockey Yes, aren't those fat PIG "Capitol Police" a bunch of donut turds. They were'nt interested in keeping the place clean of taped-up posters and graffiti, and arresting anybody, only interested in filling their fat bellies with all the donuts they can eat. What a sickening Commie town!

By the way, the woman they interview, he calls attention to her name tag. 'CELTY WWSS' The WWSS is most likely a spinoff of the 'World Workers Socialist Party'. In other words, the Communist Party of the US. These people are absolute scumbags.

Only five states do not have collective bargaining for educators and have deemed it illegal.
Those states and their ACT/SAT rankings are as follows:
South Carolina -- 50th
North Carolina -- 49th
Georgia -- 48th
Texas -- 47th
Virginia -- 44th

@justonefirefly1 Here's the rest of the quote from the article you used:
"Now, aside from the factoid, if true, providing no real insight into whether collective bargaining is good or bad for education -- there are myriad variables at work other than collective bargaining, none of which does this control for -- but the factoid itself is highly dubious.
Sometimes half truths are more misleading than outright lies.

Once an idiot always an idiot. These people act like ignoramus. They actually look like college educated kids who pretend to be ignorant or uneducated. What's missing? The marijuana, the long, dirty hair, dirty torn shoes and pants.

I have my freedom. I'm not told what to do by some union boss. Try and leave your union and see where that gets you. Your idea of freedom is completely different then mine.

Reasonable or not it doesn't change the fact that they didn't even consider it an issue. This shows the amount of respect these people have for those that have fought and died for our country and for them to be able to protest, NONE-ZERO! How depressing and sad is that?

I actually thought the protesters were more reasonable than the persons recording the video. The protesters were trying to be reasonable. And were understanding how it could be conceived as disrespectful. It was an unintentional error.

Freedom is not free and does not include free stuff. When the free pizza is gone, these pseudo-intellectual protestors will be too.

The worst part is that the signs posted on the memorial are not even slogans or statements! Its all stupid little signs about "if you need a ride, call..." or "call so & so if you need a place to stay" etc.

So sad, wish that I could of been there to help confront the protesters. This is why teaching history properly showing respect to vets should be a new focus. Never seen such disrespect.

No, little freak, I don't think you give a crap about the vets. I think you would spit on a disabled vet and laugh.

unreal.. and that chick who said she makes war memorials but didn't know this was one.. what a liar! It's plain as day and I bet they didn't even bother or care what it was but just some random object to trash their stuff with. The minute this was known as a war memorial they should have taken their stuff down ASAP. But rather they stand there like immature idiots who cant even speak.
Thanks for posting. It shows their true colors that they don't give a crap about anything but themselves.

I've been a State Employee for over 20yrs, and support the cause in every way. But I also respect the voice of the people, and if one citizen found this offensive I would have taken it down in a heart beat. In Solidarity!!

@BudWiser999 coming from an uneducated and very misinformed youth your comment doesn't really mean anything to those of us that have a real belief in what is happening in State Goverment. Your only worry now is if you have enough zit creme to make it though the week
