Carlos was pulling a flag-covered coffin with the boots and photo of his son, Alexander, on it. Alexander was killed in Najaf in 2004 and since then, Carlos has participated in many protests without incident. It is a heart-breaking sight.
This time, one of the bird brains was so upset by the display that he grabbed the photo of Alexander off the coffin and ran with it. Carols tackled him trying to get the photo back and then several other bird brains rushed in, kicking and punching.
It takes cowardly men to gang up on someone like that.
Why did the bird brain feel justified in stealing Alexander's photograph? This is among the long screed he posted on the GOBB site (no links to hate group):
...The captive Marine was not among his own. He was surrounded and outnumbered by those who shamelessly exploit his image and memory, disgrace his uniform, his brothers in arms, and his willing sacrifice. He would never choose such company. He needed a rescue…
There was no 'captured Marine'. It was a photograph of a dead Marine displayed by a grieving father. Somehow, the bird brains regard objects such as photographs to be more human than the real people with whom they disagree. That's just stupid and crazy.
Why not work instead to 'rescue' the real Marines who are fighting, getting maimed and dying for no good reason in Iraq? Why not work instead to 'rescue' vets who are homeless and/or suffering from PTSD?
Sadly, No! has a better response than I could ever write, so go there.

Methinks this is all a wee too pat of a situation... No one in their right and thinking mind would ever be, "pro war"... It makes no sense...
Unless...
You work for or are somehow involved in, the military/industrial/info complex or, the government...
I believe the term is,
"agent(s) provocateur"...
And the police's response to this crime of assault and battery, of which there are several videos? Nada. Zip. Zilch. (And at least one of the attackers has blogged about committing the attack!)
In a place where peace activists are routinely arrested for standing in one place for too long? Gimme a freakin break...
Granted, they did stop the assault, but the attackers not only did not get arrested, they were honored at the white house by our benevolent dictator guy!
This all stinks to high heaven, people... It smells of a new tactic by the psyops folk, to begin the programming of the already mind numbed masses of, "it's ok to attack peace activists!"...
And it doesn't look as if it will be too difficult to implement, what with the total non-defense of Carlos' attack... Watch the videos that are all over youtube... Don't watch the assault though, watch the people around the assault... Watch how many of them just raise their hands or shake their heads as they turn away from the assault! It's not just sad, it is sickening to watch...
It will be very interesting to see how many more peace activists will be attacked in the coming months... And what, if anything is done to the attackers...
And whether or not there are criminal charges placed against the attackers, there is always the path of the civil court system...
Anymore attacks on anyone, much less peace activists, should be handled with zero tolerance...
This is all getting curiouser and curiouser...
