Now, I’m no lawyer, but I know I hate hippies and I know that whenever they claim their first amendment rights it’s so they can trample someone else’s rights. That’s the case before the Supreme Court now. The LA Times<\/a> reports that stank-ass hippy, Dennis Apel has taken his case to the Supreme Court, or, more accurately, the Department of Defense has taken his case to the Court when the Ninth Circuit (who else?) ruled against them when Apel claimed that he had a right to protest in front of Vandenberg Air Force Base. Apparently, the command there had an area set aside for protests and when Apel violated the boundaries of decency during his protests there, they banned him;<\/p>\n

Apel had been barred from Vandenberg after his earlier arrests, which led to convictions. But he believed he could legally protest in the designated area across Highway 1 from the base.<\/p>\n

“I didn’t reenter the base,” he said on the court steps Wednesday. “No one should be arrested for protesting on a public highway.”<\/p>\n

The justices, however, said he was mistaken. The property agreement with Santa Barbara “makes it very clear that the military commander has authority to exercise control over the easement property,” said Justice Anthony M. Kennedy, referring to the part of Highway 1 that runs through the base.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

While I agree that hippies do indeed have a right to protest, no matter how distasteful their protests might be, there are boundaries, and throwing your own stank-ass hippie blood on a base sign is outside those boundaries, especially since some airman will have to clean the sign and expose himself to whatever biological hazards are contained within said stank-ass hippie blood.<\/p>\n

The military goes out of it’s way to accommodate hippy protests without affecting or hindering their mission and the hippies should be appreciative of that fact. But, they want to push the limits of those accommodations – like the Code Pink and labor union protests at Walter Reed celebrating the casualties of the Iraq war. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
