[QUOTE="Nraman, post: 1474303, member: 10001"] You refuse to see what the a$$holes do for what it is. You only see it as disrespect and pain to the family, which it is. But it is more than that, it is also political speech. Those people did not protest against the soldier because they believed that the soldier had done something wrong, they used the opportunity to protest against government policies. Should the entire nation, for ever lose the right to speak against the government unless such speech is consider "proper" by some? I think that these people can be forced to find another way to do their thing without further diminishing the Bill of Rights. BTW you talk about airports, how much of the Bill of Rights means anything at the airport? How many rights do you think you have when you return from overseas and you go through customs? How many rights do you have when FEMA declares an emergency? What part of the Constitution gives the Government the right to suspend the Constitution when they want to. How much does the Constitution mean if it is conditional, depending on the mood of the government? Perhaps we should be more concerned in strengthening our Constitutional rights instead of finding reasons to weaken them. [/QUOTE]
