Thank God Spokane has people that speak their minds. I love that city! I will be one of "lefties" to watch out for. Another year or so and I will be living there myself. Those kids most definitely have every right to speak their mind. There should be no war. Its all about oil. We all know that. However, that is beside my point. Im glad we all have out right to speak our minds. If you don't like that, you're not truly proud to be an American. There are places like Russia and Saudia Arabia where you'd be happy living if you don't like people speaking their minds.

Thanks.

Randy

Thanks everyone for your responses. We decided to move to Colorado, though it might be a bit more expensive its seems to be a better fit for us.

Like many of you said those people did have the right to protest and they can dress however they want. It is a free country and we wanted to like Spokane, but got a better vibe elsewhere. Thanks again

I just think some people get paranoid about stuff like that(granted, mostly little old ladies, but they're people, too...). That's all.
Hopefully soon we'll be some of the righties keeping Spokane on an even keel and not turning it into another Seattle.
Good luck in Colorado, Bluesfan! :~) D

Their publicity and actions on their behlaf does indeed constitute support for the message. How could it not?
