		<description>&lt;strong&gt;in your video.&lt;/strong&gt; Was the person who yelled thank you to the PIGS one of your party, punk? &lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;I&#039;m calling you a coward here every bit as much as I did when I faced your COWARD mob on the streets that day.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;What will you do about it, coward? Turn your pig buddies on me again? Try to talk somebody else into assaulting me because YOU aren&#039;t man enough? There were a few of you punks in the crowd, probably enough that you could have actually taken me out. As you said &quot;by any means necessary&quot; right? But you were too yellow to do it then, and I strong suspect you would be too yellow to do it the next time you see me.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;strong&gt;Taking pride in evil doesn&#039;t make it moral.&lt;/strong&gt; If you or your friends are a part of the Bush Murder Machine that does not automatically give you the privilege of denying other citizens the right to speak against that Evil. Even by proxy, as in your Nazi PIGS beating up on peaceful marchers who paid their ticket into the parade, legally and legitimately. &lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;YOU demand that you can take OUR country back from us? It was never YOUR country to run the way YOU and YOUR PIGS want to run it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;I suspect you are one of the loudmouth punks who was trying to incite further violence. Hiding behind your PIG buddies because you were to YELLOW to take the actions you speak of in your post. You, sir, are a bitch.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;strong&gt;if you stand for freedom,&lt;/strong&gt; Then why didn&#039;t you stand for freedom at the parade?&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;Were you one of the ones calling for us to be run over? I spoke to a few of those &quot;patriots&quot;, politely yet very firmly. Your children saw what &quot;freedom&quot; means to you. You can spin it all you want, but they saw...&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;We had a permit to march in the parade. So did paramilitary and pro-war groups.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;The ones who tried to incite further violence against us, sir, committed a crime. We committed no breach of the peace, we did not call for any acts of violence.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;Your friend from Iraq, and yourself, have never fought for American&#039;s freedom. You did not even fight for Iraqi freedom. You were pawns in an unGodly (literally) corporate sponsored war. There has been no war for American freedom since 1814. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;To suggest, sir, that you or your Army or Marines gave us our freedoms is a blatant propaganda LIE. Americans like myself TOOK our freedoms at gunpoint from first the British and then the American governments.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;The reason there is freedom in America today is because there are people willing to stand up to the Fascist police state the Army seems to want to put on us.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;strong&gt;worse than disgusting, eggregious, obscene, sociopathological behavior&lt;/strong&gt; I am a Springs resident.&#160; I have seen this type of sick prejudice in restaurants and schools also.&#160; I teach here and the soul sickness extends to parents and their progeny.&#160; Many -- and there are many, who disagree with the &quot;prejudice and cruelty toward others with impunity&quot; Nazi thugs that parade behind &quot;GOD&quot; are not well loved in the Springs among those who are capable of higher order thinking and there are many here that fit that description.&#160; The prings is a beautiful place and the lower primates that will eventually die out, (because they are too stupid to live) will leave behind a legacy that us survivors will laugh about later when the preposterousness of their existejnce reminds us of our own fallibility.</description>

		<description>&lt;strong&gt;One question...&lt;/strong&gt; I was at the parade with my young son, right in front of the &quot;peace&quot; protesters and I have to laugh at many of your comments.&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;I have a video recording of your so-called &quot;police brutality&quot; and I believe that a) it wasn&#039;t very brutal, and b) it was necessary. 99.9% of the spectators came to watch the floats, bands, fire trucks, etc., not a protest. In my video, someone in the crowd is yelling, &quot;Thank you, Colorado Springs Police!&quot;, while the crowd cheers. That sums it up for me.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;Second, I believe you have a right to your opinion, whether I agree with it or not. I believe that my good friend who was killed in Iraq in July &#039;03 would have supported your right to your opinion. That&#039;s one of the reasons he was willing to put his life on the line. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;I am a Christian, and apparently that means I believe in fairy tales and have a &quot;teeny-tiny little mind&quot;. Apparently the only requirement for being open-minded is that you must be closed minded toward those with beliefs that contradict yours! That&#039;s fine. Just don&#039;t expect me to respect your views if you can&#039;t respect mine. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;If you don&#039;t like the politics or religious beliefs of the people of this city, you have options! You can get involved in politics (vote, gather petition signatures, run for office). If your views are accepted by a majority, then things will change in your favor. If not, well, then maybe most of the people in this city don&#039;t agree with you. Does that make us fascists? NO. It makes us Americans.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;By the way, &quot;my father&#039;s America&quot; believed in supporting our military, our leadership and our right to religious freedom, and my father was a proud Marine who fought to ensure that our country remained that way. My grandfather was at Omaha Beach on D-day (fighting AGAINST the Nazis, by the way) and my great-uncle was in the Battle of the Bulge. My father&#039;s America was a proud, God-fearing place, and I&#039;d be GLAD to take it back &quot;by any means necessary&quot; from closed-minded hate-mongerers like you.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
