I dunno.. It's a scary precedent the authorities are setting here. Don't get me wrong I don't agree with anything the Westboro people say, but they should have the right to say it. Perhaps the police were trying to avoid any more beatings.It's not right, but if you are going to say hateful things, you should expect violent repercussions.

A couple of days before, one of them (Westboro protestors) ran his mouth at a Brandon gas station and got his arse waxed. Police were called and the beaten man could not give much of a description of who beat him. When they canvassed the station and spoke to the large crowd that had gathered around, no one seemed to remember anything about what had happened.

you have no idea if that soldier killed anyone.
Doesn't need to have killed anyone. But firstly, someone killed 1.5 million Iraqis. Secondly have you seen videos of the training a soldier gets? It's on video and it's anti-god. The war is about oil. Thirdly, if they are fighting so you and I can have freedom of speech then shut the hell up.
