It's like when you don't agree with the president - you can tell him he's wrong, but you can't buldoze the white house. Got it?
Secondly, what you said about waving signs around when the war is already happening not making a difference - wake up and remember Vietnam.

I was refering to his comments on the board, not his actions. His comments and his opinions on this "sign toter" was him expressing his FREEDOM OF SPEECH....
You have your opinions about Vietnam and I have mine and I disagree with you. I don't think the protests/free love/etc. helped with anything.
So, we can just calmy agree to disagree.
.....and all I'm doing here is expressing myself so I don't appreciate being talked down to like I'm ignorant.... I just have different views than you. I am well aware of the difference between action and speech. Got it?
