Army of Dog

Maybe I would if I suspected, even for a moment, that most of these ant-war morons actually gave a damn about the Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen, and Marines in harm’s way. Some of them certainly do, but most of them seem to be living a self-centered fantasy world where barbarians who saw the heads off their hostages are simply a product of disagreement with U.S. foreign policy. That, and they’re attention whores. Case in point:

Chicago Police Arrest Six Iraq War Protesters for Squirting Fake Blood on Easter Churchgoers

Six Iraq war protesters disrupted an Easter Mass on Sunday, shouting and squirting fake blood on themselves and parishioners in a packed auditorium.

Three men and three women startled the crowd during Cardinal Francis George’s homily, yelling “Even the Pope calls for peace” as they were removed from the Mass by security guards and ushers.

One Mass attendee, Mike Wainscott of Chicago, yelled at the anti-war protesters.

“Are you happy with yourselves?” he said. “There were kids in there. You scared little kids with your selfish act. Are you happy now?”

The group, which calls itself Catholic Schoolgirls Against the War, said in a statement after the arrests that they targeted the Holy Name Cathedral on Easter to reach a large audience, including Chicago’s most prominent Catholic citizens and the press, which usually covers the services.

Kevin Clark of International Solidarity Movement told the Chicago Tribune that he attended the Mass to serve as a witness for the protesters.

“If Cardinal George is a man of peace and is walking the walk and talking the talk, he should have confronted George Bush and demanded an immediate end to the war,” Clark said.

Let me make something clear, if you run into a room that I happen to occupy and start throwing any substance on people that is even remotely suspect, I’m going to chase you down and knock the shit out of you. It’s my policy.

Now that we have that bit of information out of the way, let me ask an honest question. Other than bringing attention to themselves or their stupid little group, what could these protesters possibly hope to accomplish with this kind of childish shit? Do they really think that a single person would change their position on the most significant issue of current American foreign policy based on retards throwing blood during an Easter service? Furthermore, if they really believe that Iraqis are dying by America’s hand, is using that sad reality to gain attention for themselves not a ghoulish act of self-promotion?

I strongly suspect the reality is that the morons don’t possess enough capacity for self-examination to feel any shame about this kind of stunt. Besides, aside from anti-war protests and vegan conferences, how are poor pasty white guys with bad hygiene supposed to get laid?
