We need a buffer zone

Comment(s) (7) | TrackBacks (0)

New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg vowed today to track down and prosecute the people who set off a small explosive device in front of the military recruiting office in Times Square early this morning. "We will not tolerate these kind of acts," he said adding that the apparent targeting of the famous recruiting station is "an insult to every one of our brave men and women serving around the world."

The damage thank goodness was minor and no one was injured but the Creative Minority Reporters are now urging a slew of federal laws protecting military installations that promote the right to choose the military. CMR urges that federal extortion and racketeering laws be used against protesters at military recruiting stations -just as they were against pro-lifers. CMR hopes to bankrupt the anti-war movement by using federal anti-mob laws against protest groups, claiming that such organizations were violent criminal conspiracies.

CMR is hoping a conservative senator will sponsor a bill designed to protect military recruiters and anyone who utilized their right to choose the armed forces from violent acts by anti-military extremists. The bill will make it a federal crime to attack or blockade a military installation. The bill is called the Freedom of Access to Military Entrances Act. Anti-military protesters will also not be allowed within 150 feet of any military installation or anyone in the military for that matter and even those just wearing a uniform of any kind.

CMR worries that such anti-military violence will create a climate of fear around the country preventing men and women from their right to choose the military.

Sometimes parody is a thing of beauty and the Jester's hat is tipped to Matthew for this brilliant bit of parody commentary.

I once was a military recruiter in the state of Washington for the Navy and we certainly for the most part were not treated very kindly. I had the tires on my government car slashed and the people working in the public schools pretty much did everything they could to not be helpful. The contract we had for our office in a small retail place prohibited us from placing a sign that the recruiting station was there in the front where the other entry signs were.

Earlier this week Creative Minority Report also came up with this video.

There are some graphic scenes of the results of abortion. This is the second time that I have seen the song Mad World from the movie Donnie Darko (which I really liked) used in a pro-life video.

Shoe's on the other foot here?

Does that mean that Sen. Clinton is a wee bit more pro-life (and therefore more palatable to a Catholic) than Sen. Obama? Well, I never thought I'd say that.

What an amazing video. Thanks for posting it.

I'm glad this video was submitted, but the part about Hillary could be misleading. In fact, as much as Obama has tried to court Planned Parenthood, I read that it is Hillary Clinton to whom the Mother of Lies looks for leadership.
Both Obama and Hillary have swallowed and promote every PP deception. So, to say who is more dangerous to the lives of the unborn, you'd have to weigh Obama's intention against Hillary's effectiveness.

Video comes up no longer available - any other sources?

Yes the Greek Captcha is a joke

The Curt Jester

A former atheist who after spending forty years in the wilderness finds himself with both astonishment and joy a member of the Catholic Church. This blog presents my hopefully humorous and sometimes serious take on things religious, political, and whatever else crosses my mind.

Blessed Miguel Pro, S.J.

Known as "God's Jester" was a martyr for the faith and a man of wisdom, fun, tricks, poetry, song, and dance. Thus seemed an appropriate Patron Saint of this blog.
