And I thought Peace Activists were....well....peaceful
From the Gateway Pundit:
An Iraqi War Veteran and his family were pummelled by "peace" activists in Pennsylvania this past week.
Gathering of Eagles in New York sent this:
Peace Fascists, Professors and Hillary Supporters assault Iraqi War Veteran and Family
Citizens do nothing to intervene.
Edinboro, PA, Apr. 22
For the second time in as many weeks, an Iraq War Veteran and his family held a Support the Troops rally across the street from the weekly “peace” protest in this college town. This week the true nature of the ‘peace’ activists was revealed for all to see. When the veteran’s 14 year old son crossed the street to videotape the protesters and their signs, the protesters became agitated and began harassing the boy. The right to record video in any public venue is long established in law and any attempt to interfere with that right is a violation of civil rights.
Seeing the escalating tension across the street, the veteran and his wife crossed over, leaving their three youngest children on the other side for safety while they went to retrieve their eldest son. Two of the female ‘peace’ protesters then attacked the veteran’s wife. When the veteran pulled one of those attackers off his wife he was jumped by four or five of the ‘peace’ people and knocked to the ground where they held him while beating him and smashing his eyeglasses.
The son pulled the remaining attacker off his mother, but the attacker managed to get in one last kick to his mother’s head with her boot. She then punched the son in his face while his mother called the police.
I keep hearing from the local Peace and Justice group that violence never solved anything. I guess that P&J group decided it wasn't working and was trying "peace through strength" (and forgetting about the "peace" part...)
