Michelle Malkin has been posting some stories about a group of anti-war protestors in Washington State. These people have been trying to stop the movement of military supplies to and from the port there. They have even gone as far as to use children as human shields.

This is no longer a protest. When you prevent the movement of items needed to conduct a war it is sedition and treason. These "protestors should not be allowed to continue and not face the consequences. Part of living in America is actually supporting America, or at the very least not try to prevent our brave troops from getting the supplies they need.

uh, er.....friends, lol.
I doubt it.
Americans protesting our government's actions is not considered treason or sedition in our country. It is considered exercising free speech, which is truly American. Unless protesters engage in actual sabotage or violent action OUR constitution protects their right to gather and protest; and even allows them to bring their children along (although I'd never do such a thing).
It sounds like you want to line these Americans up and shoot them for protesting (or at least lock them up and put them on trial), but that's not the way things are done here. They only do things like that in countries like Iran or Iraq when it was under Saddam's rule.
They put their children in front of them to stop a truck that is a human shield if I even heard of one.
What surprises me is that the protesters could not understand why the police officers resorted to using pepper spray, pushed back with batons, and arrested even though they were repeatedly warned to to clear streets and stop blocking traffic. I am sorry, but lash out because you disagree with what is going on in the world today without considering the consequences, you deserve to pay the price for your actions and behavior.
I am greatly opposed to this illegal war, or better described, Occupation, with Iraq. However I would never begrudge one MRI or one cartridge for our troops. I would love to see a few of these "protesters" stand trial and pull about 20 years manditory for their actions.
It is normal in the US to have war protesters. There were war protesters during WW2, and every time the US has gotten into some problem since. It is one thing to protest a war and it is quite another to try to stop the shipment of supplies to our troops.
Put me in the sedition/treason camp.
When are the liars in charge to be charged with treason in the causing the mess that is Iraq.
bush / cheney inc , now that is true treason .

Reign? Hell, I don't even have reign of my own house! Just ask my wife.
Rudy or Fred will be sworn in and we won't have to be subjected to pondering what Hitlery will do next.
Darn Hitlery is good: I've been calling her Billary but Hitlery is better.
So, who's left or right?
Anytime you cross that line by interfering with getting the supplies, that the troops need to them. You should do some serious jail time. It is against the law to obstruct a police officer from doing his job. The military are trying to do a job as well.
