Tacoma Shuts Down Military Recruiting Center

i wish a soldier would just come up and POP that stupid reporter in the face.

[StoogeWatcher]

I find it funny that the same liberal fascists who protest against the military have no problem with the radical Muslim groups who kill people for being gay.

[jakedasnake231]

So if were invading them and killing innocent people in an unjust war, what was 9/11? Cause I'm pretty sure that the terrorists attacked us first

[USA9431957]

i just want to beat the holy shit out of the "reporter" and they dont send troups their because they will beat the shit out of those hippie fuck nuggets.

[sammycdog]

There you have it, the future of journalism in---Doh! I mean the NOW of journalism in America...MORONS!!!

[fanuvgod1]

If people want to protest the war, fly overseas and protest at an Al Qaeda or Taliban training camp. Ask for peace there and see how that goes....

[ammoMtaFoY]

"Conservatism has always been compassionate . . ."

Hahahah, that's a good one. Nothing more compassionate than killing hundreds of thousands of people, taking people's rights away, and then locking them up or torturing them for no real reason. The only empathy they have is empathy with the corporate elite. Conservatism is the antithesis to compassion.

[poop121]

horribly fake accent!

[proudtoserve1]

I love people like this. They like to think that their happy little lives are not the result of brave men and women dying for their freedom. Pieces of shit.

[kingofthebrittains]

War has NOTHING to do with Freedom, never has. Google "War is a Racket" by Maj Gen Butler USMC and "Zeitgeist Addendum" You've been lied to all your life and just don't know it. Just like the rest of us. Question ALL assumptions and you will become free to think for yourself. Who makes the billions off of Your service? Do you resent that? Do you believe that War can bring Peace? Can Death bring Life? Can Hate bring Love? Can Sex bring Virginity? Violence Solves Nothing.

[Sporkmater]

Have you even been in the military at all. If not then why do you think you can tell what our service is worth?

[kingofthebrittains]

I'm not making a value judgment about the worth or quality of anybody's service. I'm stating the fact that their service is being used to make billions for a few at the expense of many. I support people as PEOPLE, not the corrupt systems that use them. People have inherent worth & the tragedy of them not recognizing that worth is what causes most of the suffering in the world. When you don't value yourself, you're easily manipulated by advertisements & social or military conditioning.

[Sporkmater]

But here is the thing. Your assuming what our motivation for wanting to be deployed across the world.

I have manged to help many people directly and indirectly while being deployed to Iraq. I know there is corruption. but I do this for the person to the left and right of me more then anything else. So dod it assume that we all just joined after playing modern warfare 2.

[kingofthebrittains]

I'm not assuming anything, you seem to be projecting your thoughts onto what I'm saying. Be responsible for your own feelings. I said Nothing about motivation at all. There are many motivations for joining, but one horrible outcome.That's what I'm talking about, the bigger picture of the motivations of those who use the military as muscle to get what they want. check out war is a racket, you'll see what I mean. We just need smarter solutions to our problems than killing and destroying.

[Sporkmater]

War is a reality that is not going to go away. Despite the efforts and ideas there will be those that will use violence to achieve their goals. Look at the Taliban and other terrorist organizations that deliberately go after civilian targets. That is why there will be a need for people to stand up against them.

Also it is easier to say that what should be done when you do not have to face the dangers personally.

How are you going to bell that cat?

[kingofthebrittains]

You're not getting it. You're looking at the problem form a hilltop, I'm looking at it from orbit. Widen your perspective. Watch "Zeitgeist Addendum" The term Terrorist is all spin. The Americans were terrorists to England in 1770. Terror is a Tactic, you can't fight it with guns. Plus, they killed 3000 on one day we've killed 100's of thousands, occupied 2 countries, tortured POWs & displaced millions over 9 years, who's the terrorist here? Compare ACTIONS not words.

[Sporkmater]

You know there is a difference with military against military compared to deliberately attacking civilian targets.

We punish those who break the laws of war, the enemy seems to go out of their way to see civilian targets get bombed.

Iraqis a place where you have a better understanding from the ground then any where in the sky. People are displaced regardless of what we do or not. You need to talk to the people there before judging who is in the wrong.

[kingofthebrittains]

Quit being so naive. Who dies when a WHOLE CITY is Bombed? We justify it as "Collateral Damage" but it's Civilians in their homes who die.

Laws of War? Like the Geneva Conventions we're still breaking? Laws are bullshit made up by the rich to control the poor.

I was speaking metaphorically about seeing it from orbit.

Millions leave their homes "just because"? Please.

You're missing the whole point here & distracting yourself with trivialities. Watch Z.A. & then talk to me about it.

[Sporkmater]

Have you been to Iraq or have talked to anyone that been/lives there?

Also what about the UN giving us mandates until the Iraqi security pact took over? Or the UN mandate for military action in Afghanistan?

No, I have seen the conflict up close when I was hit by a IED, why would I want to read from someone else?

[kingofthebrittains]

Yes, I know both soldiers & nationals & have spoken at length about it. Have you talked to the bankers who profit from War?

Fuck the UN - it's run by the same bankers as everything else & it's "decrees" are disinfomation.

So b/c you went to war you know everything there is to know? A wise man will gather all the info he can b/c knowledge is power. I think you're just afraid to face the facts.

As Goethe said: None are more hopelessly enslaved than those who falsely believe they are free.

[Sporkmater]

From what area and when where they there?

Also you assume that I am making the claim that there is not any corruption with this or any war. Wealth attract corruption. I know there is, but it does not cancel out the work that we did in these areas.

The way you write sounds more like back seat driving. You want to be the one telling others how they have it all wrong, yet you have not offered up anything that would show you making a effort to help.

Do something besides just talk.

[kingofthebrittains]

I provided some answers in my 1st post, please watch the videos I suggested.I can't say much in 500 words.You say I'm "just talking" but you won't even watch a video about change. Don't believe me, find out the answers for yourself if you care about having an accurate picture of reality. My whole purpose in life is to spread awareness of a better way to live & I'm doing it right now.

I'm working hard with the Zeitgeist Movement & the Transition Movement to bring real change. How about you?

[poop121]

cuz we're paying your salary and pension with our taxes.

[belewscreekfiredept]

dude,you sound like bruno.

no war=nothing worth fighting for.

[thesuperbosses]

stupid hippies its like freekin woodstock

[Nzander]

You want to know why troops from FT Lewis are told not to go counter protest your little pow wows. I will be blunt.

WE FUCKING HATE YOU AND ALL OF YOU. We hate you lazy, weak, ignorant hippy retards. And what happens when there is a bunch of college students mixed with very angry soldiers. Violence and lots of it. So we avoid the situation and keep our honor and let you all make fools of yourselves. You all can protest all you want but YOU WONT STOP SHIT! Quit wasteing your time.

[unversedelysium]

Joe le Sac!

Have my babies!!

[joewildomar]

What an idiot!!

[TheTreemeister]

PUSSIES, shut up you faggots. You have no balls.

[martthesling]

Don't you people understand we need a standing Army as a determent against greater threats. You by your actions are making it harder for the military to serve and protect America and the rest of the world. You are putting many people more people at risk. A weaker America is a weaker less safe world where evil people can harm people.

[TexasStar3737]

Had no time for anythign else. Please educate yourself other than the news don't think that protest infront of a recruiting station is going to get you much all your doing is blocking a door that your makeing more visible with your protest. A soldier will not stop to mak ehis or her mission regardless of the foe the American people would not expect any less from us. Please understand that im not pro war but I am pro education..

[raouldeming]

It's Dieter from from Sprockets (Saturday Night Live).

The Australians have a saying, Stupid on stilts" now I understand what they mean.

Not how INDYMEDIA Lies...

[HeeroGundam12]

What a Fuckin joke. These people are just a gethered freak show not really protesting anything. They're all just saying give us more money for other stuff.

[dakkerx]

nice guy with a good intelligent video

[krag30]

So Joe, did your parents teach you to lie like that? Is that the type of ethics that a "journalist" strives for? You are a person of zero integrity and zero character. Your parents should definitely be ashamed of you.

You also interviewed me, Joe. I was the guy with the Caterpillar hat. Remember? Why didn't you play that interview. Perhaps because I knew what Indymedia was and did not fall for the fake accent.

[Acumensch]

Krag - I talked to you in the American accent if you recall. Anyway, I'll write you a message so I can respond with more than 500 characters. But I'll add that this video was also done with themelononline(dot)com - it's opinion and punditry with a left slant, and we also have a Republican writer on board. So that automatically makes it "fair and balanced".

[phantastickyle]

Liberals should get out and should be charged with treason. this is an outrage.

[soulhunter59]

The founding fathers were very liberal for their time. Guess what; protesters and businessmen founded this country. Pissed off the protesters to much and BAM we had a revolution. Oh and if the founding fathers had lost the war they would have been hanged for treason.

[martthesling]

How is stopping a sovereign nation from protecting itself by recruiting soldiers similar to the founding fathers. The 2nd amendment clearly states that "A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed." By infringing recruitment you are going against the constitution.

[soulhunter59]

The second amendment was made so each state could form their own militia. The founding fathers were scared to have a organized military. They didn't form a military until after the two tax rebellions. Now also don't forget the right to protest and free speech.

[martthesling]

I'm sorry, the Second Continental Congress was held to raise an Army, Navy, and Marine Corps for the common protection against the U.K. Even before Independence the u.s Military was established and to say that the founding fathers were against having a standing military is flat out wrong. You don't have a right to stop or hinder the U.S Government from recruiting. That's the closest thing to treason as one can get besides aiding an enemy of the state.

[soulhunter59]

I think you need to do some reading my friend. The second amendment was made so a military would not be needed. I know this because I'm a history minor so I work with historians all the time. The revolution started when agry protesters started when angry protesters started taking shots at red coats. I know this because I had to study where they were going and how they didn't make it back.

[buffaloSabrespommy]

hahaha a history minor your a fuckin loser stfu

[Dogmeat1950]

the Militia became the Guard dumb ass.

the U.S had a military well before the Tax problems

[Dogmeat1950]

wow soulhunter don't talk about history lol

founding Fathers many of them owned Slaves,

they set up the USCG an the USMC, Federal Marshall's, went half way around the world to kick the shit out of Pirates in the Med.

also the ppl supporting the troops doesn't make you pro war, keep in mind damn near every soldier who has seen war is very against it. but knows it has to be done.

also the Estonia Student is dumb.

[PeaceProfit]

F-E-A-R

whats that spell ?

come on all you dumb down kids, uncle sam needs your help again & again & again

got himself in a hell of a jam, way down yonder near the promised land

put down your game controller, pick up a gun, woo-ha, the real thing is way more fun

1-2-3, what we fighting for, we know its oil but we don't give a dam, our next stop is holy land

5-6-7-8, open up Wal-Mart gates aint no time to wonder why, woo-ha, theres plenty of shit to buy

(((( Critical*Mass ))))

[PixelFool]

Holy crap I am totally in love with this guy. Great production as well. I love when he slips from one accent to another in the same conversation - ha!

[SlowRideCT]

Excellent video. Estonia - great! It's encouraging to see that this young man has surpassed the intelligence and knowledge of some of the old guys. I have no salami with that :-)

[jpespey]

"Why do you cover your face?" Response: "Because they are cowards."  And then he runs away. Or how about the part where the guy says everyone that wears black is pretending to agree with freedom. Well I mean except for he and his friends. They know the real freedom, before MTV made it commercial and uncool. Like nuns, they only wear freedom colors because they saw it in a movie once.

[frado2jr]

you know what im glad we live here i hate but i will still defend your right

PFC Washington

1-182 Field Artillary

[Trishnmac]

Make fun of the great country we live in. Make fun of our brave men and women in uniform. Make fun of people who support the troops. Make fun of Christians. It's a great country where you can make fun of everything you are not. You really should not take that freedom for granted. And there is nothing fair and balanced about regular media, tbone. You are the one being close minded here.

[concerned00citizen]

Proves that if you tell Americans often enough the same thing - they will believe it! Fox - fair and balanced!!! Idiots for the war. Believe everything on TV.

[deadringerfelix]

Wow. He tries to be funny. But fails miserably.

[Mav3ricK1219]

what is this shit? "yay! we have successfully opposed our country, who is trying to protect us, from an imminent threat! yayy, they're christian terrorists!" liberals are as dumb as they get, seriously.

[MalcolmTodd66]

I'd punch that coward in the face!

[NotSoOldHippy]

Joy! Shut down the Christian terrorists for a day, that's at least _something_. It's a damn shame that every one of these Christian terrorist baby killers who invaded Iraq can't be hauled off to prison or be executed for their crimes against humanity.

[MalcolmTodd66]

Wow what a peaceful resolution... fuckin faggot liberal

[ToddBoyle]

Thanks for the vid! But it is kind of sad, to mock the persons of density. Their ignorance is so deep. They think the aggression against Iraq is self defense. Huh? When did Iraq attack America? The bullhorn lady thinks opposing war supports terrorism. Somebody has to get some help or services, for these KVI people.

[FredBear13]

this kid is such punk...i bet his parents are so proud....

[beatsforthemind]

i like very much. this video makes for presenting funny interview with protest and with war.

[ipsut]

great Vid, I wish I could have been there. As a interviewer you are first rate. Keep up the good work against this illegal and immoral war. It looks like everyone was able to have a good time as well.

[143tbone]

Excellent! Good job. Except your interviews show us what we're up against. How can you fight that kind of "intellect?" Fair and balanced? Yeh right. Funniest damn thing I've seen in a long time. Thanks J.

[Acumensch]

maybe our team needs louder motorbikes.

[Jerichowaters]

This is great, post it on The Melon.

Also, take my name off CockTales...:)
