I heard a DJ say yesterday that he couldn't believe that some of the fellow comrades of fallen patriots that attend these funerals had not put actions to their anger for this group. It is actually a great statement that no harm has come to these guys.

That is so very wrong......go protest the movie, but not the actor's funeral.

My goodness!
