Anti-war protesters turn to looting


A California High School anti-war protest turned into a looting spree, as some students robbed a local gas station convenience store. Five of the truant children were detained for suspicion of vandalism and theft.

Other truant kids who left school grounds to protest the non-war in Iraq had some interesting things to say. Insisting that they weren't cutting class just to get out of school, one bright young lass said, "We're doing this to get our voices heard." Another girl whose at that age where she knows everything claimed, "It's a statement -- a lot of people are against the war. America is the one who looks bad."

I can only hope some day they'll look back on all this, and have learned something. I have hope that they don't turn out to be like 42 year old Fred Greissing, who thinks that "Protesting is more patriotic than going to war, I'm supporting the troops right now -- they are being used as cannon fodder for an unnecessary war."

Well, gee Fred. Why don't you go down to Camp Pendleton and protest in front of the Marine barracks then?

That's priceless. 'Pacfists go on looting spree.' It sounds like something out of the Onion.

See? All that happened NORTH of here. I'm telling you.....it's a conspiracy by those who don't live in Paradise to make the rest of the state look idiotic
