FEAR!!!!! thanks bushco :(((

Now this really torques me. The repercussions of the Bush/Cheney/neocon scheme to get people to buy into the Iraq war after 9/11 and Afghanistan just go on and on and on and this is the kind of thing that results. Just infuriating. See this from the AP:

Police Called To Church Because Bald Marines Attend Services
Authorities Notified After Veterans Attend Twice
POSTED: 5:38 am PDT May 4, 2005
RANCHO CUCAMONGA, Calif. -- The strangers with shaved heads weren't skinheads -- they were leather necks.

Parishioners at a Catholic Church in the Los Angeles area were a little nervous when three tough-looking guys showed up during services the past two Sundays.
Sheriff's deputies were called to the church after the men visited the second time.
But San Bernardino County sheriff's Sgt. Frank Gonzales said there was nothing to worry about. The three men are Marines who had just returned from Iraq. He said the men were very polite and explained they were just looking for a friend.

So the men were obviously not doing anything wrong. They just "looked" wrong. Way to go, Christians!

I thought only the Talibaptists behaved that badly.

I thought the same. Man, that was pathetic behavior...but what really made me furious is knowing those Marines' feeling had to be hurt.
