The Protesters In Olympia Are Using Children Like Human Shields To Stop Traffic…..

.....and one mother of the year drops her baby on his face while doing so.

Michelle Malkin has more on this, including some photos of a group of them with their kids blocking a semi-truck. And a picture of the screaming kid who got dropped on his head.

One interesting note in this chorus of insanity is that you’ll see that some of the kids are wearing bandanas on their faces in the finest tradition of leftist protesting.  My, but we’re teaching our children well, aren’t we?

By the way, when I looked at those protesters in the pictures I had to ask myself…..where do they all come from? I don’t mean to make light of these dangerous fools but every time we see a picture of the anti-war bunch no matter where it’s taken - they all have that same look about them. Are they all related?

I generally view protests with some degree of bemused - if impatient - tolerance but this is over the top. These people need to go to a federal prison.

So how is this any different than mothers and fathers picketing with their babies in front of planned parenthood?  I once say a summer christian children’s camp daily activity calendar that actually listed under “fun activity”  picketing at the abortion mill. 

So pot meet kettle.

Sorry, Puzzle, but there’s a bit of difference in walking with your kid and carrying a sign and actively having the kids sit in a roadway blocking traffic.

Your comment was actually similar to a point I meant to bring up in the above post but because of things happening around me right now I flaked it.

A federal prison?  What federal law did they break?  Why should the federal government impinge on the state’s sovereignty?

Two big differences: the anti-abortion picketers aren’t endangering anyone, and they are demonstrating to preserve life and to protect it from the corporate welfare-supported killer “Planned Parenthood”.
The thugs in Seattle, like the violent pro-union strikers, are there to practice violent intimidation to force their views on the majority.
Let’s put abortion to a vote by the general population, and remove govt subsidies from the abortion killers and the union thugs!  Apply anti-trust legislation to everybody.


If govt control of the economy were the way to go, the Soviet Union would be the richest, most powerful nation in the history of the world.

Thanks to Obama, America remains the only country where it is illegal to drill our own oil!

so typical of R108, I’ve seen anti abortion picketers with their children blocking the driveways when cars were trying to get in.  so puleeze, R198, you can try all you want to differentiate between the two but they are the same.  If you call these people thugs then the protesters in front of a legal medical facility are thugs as well and interfereing with commerce.  I don’t agree with your terminology but that’s just you being you.

Oh and Anna, I ain’t a “he” and I don’t need reality check, I’ve seen children holding antiabortion signs bigger than they blocking the driveways and running in the streets.  You are the one who needs a reality check.

So that, of course, makes this ok.

Puzzled never gets tired of the “you did it too” defense.


The purpose of government shouldn’t be to do good, but simply to refrain from doing evil.

Rob on November 15, 2007 at 08:40 pm

Oh I get tired of it Rob, especially when you guys thinks its ok when you do it and no one else can, then you cry about the “you did it too defense”.  What’s good for the goose…..

Puzzlefeet on November 15, 2007 at 08:44 pm

The feigned outrage is what is tiring, Rob. Oh mi god, they’re using children as “human shields”.  Oh how could they, what horror!  I guess it all depends whose ox is getting gored.

I’m not sure I’ve ever supported people who block access to abortion clinics.

I think abortion is murder, of course, but free speech rights don’t trump other people’s rights.  Not the right to an abortion, of course, which doesn’t actually exist outside the minds of certain liberal judges but rather the right to go about one’s legal business without being harassed.

So before you go accusing “you guys” of supporting something, maybe you should check and see if they actually support it.

You show me a bunch of pro life protesters putting their children in front of traffic and I promise to be equally outraged.

Fair enough?

Opps… my apologies Ms. Puzzlefeet for the gender mistake. (although I don’t ever recall you making note of it when others refer to you as a “he”...but such is life!)
Now, as for reality check? Placing your child in front of an eight ton vehicle and “hope” all goes right for the sake of some righteous belief is outright child endangerment and the parents should be called on for that crime. As for your anti-abortion issue .. nothing can be said to justify this child shielding blockade.

Dannyboy:

How about trying to damage railroads? How about blocking shipments of federal material? And there are nimerous violations that don’t rise to a federal offense level.

And Puzzle:

The feigned outrage is what is tiring,

Nothing feigned here. This is absurd. Further, the lefties squeal like pinched schoolgirls anytime anyone anywhere does something that offends someone’s sensibilities.

Feigned outrage? You guys should copywrite it.

You are absolutely right, just pointing out the hypocrisy of the feigned outrage of some who think it is ok when it is an issue they are passionate about.

Let’s see - what other group puts their children at risk while doing their dirty work?  Hmmm, I got it!!  Islamic terrorists!! One more thing the left have in common with the enemy.  Wake up America!!  The enemy is in your midst!!

And the pro-life groups as well DD

Puzzlefeet on November 15, 2007 at 09:36 pm

the protesters in front of a legal medical facility are thugs as well and interfereing with commerce. The “commerce” of killing the innocent unborn for political purposes, and doing it with our tax dollars.  Thought you were against “corporate welfare”, P.  Why the double standard?

You’ll need to prove that with some photographic evidence, P.  I have never seen anti-abortion protesters using children as human shields like the thugs in Seattle are doing.  They use the children to show the abortionists what they are killing.  Big difference.
On the other hand, the Seattle thugs and the terrorist thugs are doing exactly the same thing.

If I recall correctly, there was a case several years ago where some leftist idiot lost his legs when he was “run over” by a train carrying some sort of DoD weaponry which he was trying to stop by blockading the tracks with his body.  As I remember no charges were brought against the engineer of the train and the civil suit against him and the railroad was also dismissed.

There’s also the case of little misguided Rachel Corrie and the Caterpillar D-9.

People who place themselves in front of cars and trains and 18-wheelers, for whatever reasons, deserve what happens to them, and their deaths only serve to improve the gene pool.  But children of these idiots do not deserve to be put at risk by stupid parents.  And parents this callously self-righteous ought to have their kids removed from their care as quickly as possible.  Kids ought not to be placed at risk for the sake of proving their parents’ idiocy.

Puzzle approached the argument from the premise of belief.  In my opinion, here’s how it works:

-The Leftist protestors use children, as shields, to block interstate commerce and disrupt military supply lines.

-The Leftist then justifies the actions based on the belief that their political opponents will, and do, the same thing when protesting.  They project their values onto others, and reinforce it with belief.

-No proof is necessary for the Leftist to make such an arguement.  According to the ‘scriptures’ of radical socialist thought, it is the TRUTH.  And because they hold the sacred ‘truths’, they are entitled to use any means necesary.  The ends justify the means.  It is all very narcissistic.

Ain’t Collectivism grand.

Sluggo on November 16, 2007 at 12:33 am

I fail to see any connection between these “people” and Pro-Life protestors.  Protesting on public property is legal, blocking traffic is not.  And blocking road traffic with your children is not only endangerment, but insanely stupid.

Puzzlefeet: show me a photo of pro-life protestors blocking street traffic and I will condem them for being idiots too.

Gang, puzz enjoys seeing other people’s children killed for her ideology, thus her support for anti-American protestors using children as shields, and her support for Muslim terror groups using children as cruise missiles.

puzz? you never posted that list of the thousands of pro-life suicide bombings. We been waiting a year, what is the hold up?

Come on, you know she doesn’t have anything other than strawmen. Yeah, sure puszzle, you saw some pro-lifers using their babies and kids as shields at abortion clinics *wink, wink*.

That’s how weak and chickenshit the left is: they have to use kids to protect and insulate them. Pathetic POSs.

Hoss,

They may well be pathetic POSs… but their intentions are noble, and for Democrat dolts that is all that matters.  Liberal apologists like Puzzlefeet can rationalize the sun out of the noonday sky, oblivious to the paradox of their own wretched sanctimony.  Absolutes such as truth or right and wrong don’t matter.  Which is why religion in general and Christianity in particular are so frightful to them.

Thank you, Anna, dear.  I just love this sort of stuff.  Fact is, I believe I’ve seen the guy holding up the bulldozer sign doing the same sort of thing in pictures of other protest rallies.
