A real brave soul threw an explosive device outside a recruiting station in New York this morning at about 3:45 am. I hope the sick coward who did this get's caugt soon. If this was a protest of the war and the military it is a cowardly way of protesting.

I was just about to post this too.

I agree with you very cowardly. I don't undestand protesting your dislike for war by killing people isn't that what they dislike to begin with?

Still post Chris I only has a short time before work to write this.

That really urks me!! People need to have respect for our military personel.. They don't even realize how many of their freedoms these men and women fought to give us. They need to have respect!

Once again I find I must agree with micky d. "Peace activists." Mimic Islamic Terrorists and Hammas tactics "If you do not agree with an idea, set of a bomb, to demonstrate your peaceful agenda and views.

Oh I'm sure that to the extreme left who preach about how we need to get out of Iraq will see no problem with using the same tactics against the military here as is being used in Iraq. But thankfully no one got hurt in this blast put next time someone might not be so lucky. I mean don't like a house burn it down. Don't like a lab destroy it.
For me it's been one of those days when I wish that everything got blown up. If I were in the building, oh well.

Why?

Well I guess that came out wrong. I meant that some are willing to go to the extremes to push there agenda and they seem to be played down.

Things seem to be escalating. I hope that this doesn't turn out to be a protest motivated action but either way it's a horrible act of violence that could have hurt or killed someone.

Now it's being reported that eight of the New York Democrat congressional members received letters with a photo of a person standing in front of the station with a message stating "We did it" and a manifesto attached to it as well.

This was an act of cowardice. I'm disgusted that anyone would do something like this against our men and women in uniform, who are in harms way for us.
