Military family under attack by Peace Thugs

Military family under attack by Peace Thugs

This is exactly what I am doing this for, to document cases of intolerance and brutality by the “peaceful” anti war activists.

Here we have a military family who has been harassed and attacked.

Be proud peace activists:  your true colors are showing.

From What Bubba Knows and Melanie Morgan (reformatted for clarity):

Wonderful.

This particular family has been under attack for almost a year by the ‘peace thugs’. Their home was attacked in the night on 2 occasions, once breaking windows out of their car.

 This is a military family and they deserve better. The GOE has been very patient in dealing with these thugs, I dont think that patience is going to stretch much further.

The first hand account:

 The AAR for Saturday’s Iran-mobile counter in Meadville will be delayed. Our video camera has been confiscated by the Edinboro PD.

We had a counter protest today in Edinboro. It was an Iraq war protest put together by Richard McVay. He was not present but there were about 10 college students, a couple professors and a group of Hillary supporters.

Anyways, Andrew went to the their protest site to videotape a couple odd displays they put up. They were beginning to get aggresive with Andrew simply because he was recording their protest. Jason and I went over to make sure he was ok.

Long story short one girl attacked me which turned into 2 girls attacking me. Jason pulled one off of me and then he was attacked and held down by 4-5 people getting punched in the head.

Meanwhile Andrew pulled the other girl off me and then she kicked me in the head with a great big boot. I called the cops and while we were waiting on them the girl that kicked me in the head went over to Andrew(14 years old) and punched him right in the face. My 12, 9, and 7 year olds were standing across the street witnessing the whole thing.

Here’s the kicker. The cops watched the video at the scene and no arrests were made. One of the cops was very aggressive toward us.

The girl later spit on Jason right in front of the cop and nothing was done about it.

Amazing! Right now I have a huge headache and knots coming up all over my head. Jason has scratch marks on his face not to mention someone stomping on his glasses when they fell off. Andrew has a red cheek.

So we’ll get a AAR for this event and Saturday’s maybe tomorrow night after we get our camera back.

This pissed off woman won’t back down to terror! And next time I will fight back!!!

  1. I had the honor of meeting the Swartouts; Jason, his wife Carrie, and their son Andrew on 3/15 at the Eagles Up Pro-Troop Rally amd March in DC. Jason is a brother OIF Vet, and knowing he was attacked is bad enough, but knowing his wife and son were assaulted as well just sent me over the edge!!!! We Soldiers will tolerate attacks on us, but when these gutless, hate-filled, anti-military extremists physically assault our families, then ALL BETS ARE OFF!

    In my obviously biased opinion, I hope the Swartouts use every legal avenue available to them to bring justice to those who assaulted them, and to the law enforcement who were present, saw the evidence, and DID NOTHING!

    A STRONG MESSAGE needs to be sent to these gutless, hate-filled, anti-military extremists, and that message is “DON’T SCREW WITH REAL PATRIOTIC AMERICANS, OR ELSE!”

    Sounds to me like I need to visit Meadville sometime to stand with the Swartouts

  2. This is outrageous. I hope complaints have been lodged with the police department’s internal affairs or other department charged with oversight of police officers. I hope a complaint should be made to the state’s attorney general as well as the federal counterpart. Have not their First Amendment rights been trampled on by the left-leaning scum? If they have the names of the cowards then they should immediately seek legal representation and sue the bastards.

    What in the hell is wrong with this country? The lawbreakers, aka the scum of the earth, seem to have carte blanche while the patriots, those who love and care for our great country and bear the brunt of supporting her, are demonized and hung out to dry by those sworn to uphold the law.

    What I really find disturbing is their children had to witness this. Should they sue, I hope like hell they find deep pockets so they can be recompensed for the trauma of seeing their parents and older brother being beaten by those who espouse “peace”. My prayers go out to the Swartouts.

  3. It’s called “anarcho-tyranny”: government action (or inaction) designed to oppress common, law-abiding folk (or designed to manufacture complex laws and regulations to make common, law-abiding folks into easily-oppressed faux “outlaws”) while turning a blind eye toward–or even actively supporting–outlaws.

  4. Seeing that the cowards in DC and other cowards within the law enforcement agencies have been indoctrinated with PC and the other social diseases, we just may have to take the law into our own hands…if that is what they want.

    How many more examples of the non-peaceful peace-niks actions are needed until the “authorities” start cracking down on these morons?

  5. Slap a uniform on these aggressive and violent thugs and airdrop them into Basra.

  6. I was at Eagles Muster too and although I didn’t get introduced to the Swartouts, I do remember them. Here’s yet another assault of a person, this time, Andrew, a teenager, who was simply videotaping the proceedings. Another person that I met at Eagles Muster, a lovely young woman named Skye, from the Midnight Blue Blog, was assaulted while videotaping the “peace” demonstration in West Chester, PA, a week after Eagles Muster, Easter Saturday, March 15:

    The moonbats aren’t about peace, love and tolerance, they’re about forcing everyone to believe what they do and obviously have no problems assaulting kids, women and veterans who disagree with them! They are clearly demonstrating “the ends justify the means” socialist axiom that they live their lives by.

    Watch out for these people, they’re getting desperate now and are lashing out. Let’s learn from Andrew’s and Skye’s assault. If you’re going to videotape the moonbats, make sure you have at least two people accompany you. Never confront them solo.

  7. i have seen this so called military family many times provoke
    elderly women and get away with it. its nice to see some real patriots kick the crap out of them. their last altercation was
    with a 82yr old women she kicked him in the ass and he filed charges and she had to pay a fine.
    the gathering of eagles must be proud of them!

  8. Assault is assault, no matter the age, ed. It seems you advocate violence over tolerance - how very peaceful of you.

    Everyone has the right in this nation to freely and openly express their opinion on any matter. You are also free to disagree - you are NOT free to hit.

  9. Question: Why was their camera confiscated? There is NO LAW that gives anyone the right to either prevent photography or confiscate photographic equipment. Any photographer whose equipment is confiscated and damaged in any way could and SHOULD have charges filed.

  10. These peaceniks maybe need to have some batting practice down on them…

    and the Local cops.. they need to be put out of a job…

    allowing folks to be assaulted, and then harass those that got assaulted, for being assaulted.. all in the name of Peace????

    how stupid do these self righteous assholes get????

  11. The common thread between the two areas where people were attacked is the Veterans For Peace.

    Sanford Kelson is the guy in NW PA and John Grant is the guy in SE PA.

    Veterans For Peace’s leadership is full of VVAW cockroaches hiding under the VFP rock.

  12. It’s time for the silent majority to take action against these thugs and the people who are supposedly put in positions of protecting the innocent but lack the guts and are only followers of a pacifist society. This country is becoming no different then the third world countries we are fighting! It’s time to organize the true patriots and do away with these fascist pigs and I am not talking about peaceful means. It takes extreme measures to overcome violence!!!!

  13. It’s time for the silent majority to take action against these thugs and the people who are supposedly put in positions of protecting the innocent but lack the guts and are only followers of a corrupt legislation which create laws protecting the guilty. This country is becoming no different then the third world countries we are fighting! It’s time to organize the true patriots and do away with these fascist pigs and I am not talking about peaceful means. It takes extreme measures to overcome violence!!!!

  14. Ho can we meet some of these peace thugs? I have something for them.
    Last time I met sh*t like this was in SF Airport when welcoming Viet Nam soldiers home. We had to show those “peaceniks” something also.

    Its time again to clean up the scum.

  15. This sounds like it may have an effect.
    Bombard them with emails & phone calls.
    I sent mine to the Mayor & Chief.

    Sent one to the Gov. of Pennsylvania too,but his staff says its a local problem,but flood send him an email anyway & he can twist the Mayor.s arm.

    Might I suggest that we contact the various Borough Officials and let them know about the publicity they are getting?

  16. HEY SWARTHOGS THE NEXT TIME YOU GO TO A PEACE RALLY TO TAUNT ACTIVIST LEAVE THE CHILDREN AT HOME THIER IS NO REASON TO SUBJECT THEM TO THE VERBAL ABUSE THAT YOU GIVE OUT.
    ITS NOT PATRIOTIC ITS PSYCOTIC.IS IT ANY WONDER WHY A 82YR OLD WIFE OF A COMBAT VETRAN KICKED YOUR ASS.MAYBE THE GATHERING OF EAGLES CAN GIVE YOU A PURPLE HEART FOR THAT!!! AS A PEACE ACTIVIST I RESPECT THE ELDERLY AND ALL COMBAT VETRANS AND WOULD NEVER TAUNT THEM AS YOUR FAMILY HAS.PEACE ACTIVIST ARE NOT ALWAYS PASSIVISTS LIKE THE WOMEN IN BLACK I QUESS YOU FOUND THAT OUT!!. YOU GOT WHAT YOU ASKED FOR –REAL PATRIOTS–

  17. How sweet.

  18. thanx leo just calling em as i see em

  19. Uh huh.

    Amazing how you had to “call it” with name calling and rudeness.

    How very Thuggish.

  20. Anyone who condones a fourteen year old ,getting his face smashed in by 22 year old adult is as bad as the perp. Thank you Mr Swartout for defending your son, and defuseing the situation . Wish you were my pops.

  21. I am a former commander of A Company 1-67 Armor. I travel through the Edinboro area about twice a month. I should start driving by campus to see if any “peace” protestors want to spit on me? Funny they like attacking kids and women why not a warrior leader like me who served their corrupt imperial government and represents everything they hate? My suspicion is they are closet cowards whose stengths come from the mob mentality and would have the gumption to fight me. I on the other hand love fighting. I can honestly say that after the first time I saw a soldier fatally wounded I actually wanted to fight even more. No tears, no fear, just rage and a burning desire for revenge. I know if you live by the sword you die by the sword and I accept that. It actually saddens me that I might die some frail old man in bed one night instead of in a real struggle. What a waste that will be. I can’t wait to get into a scrap so it seems like lovely Edinboro might be a good place to stop for lunch. So next time these wanna be holigans start running their mouths be aware it might just be me next time and I am looking forward to it.

  22. This is garbage. Why don’t you tell the truth?

    You’re up on charges and the Police have a tape of what really happened. How about you and your group harassing the girls at their homes?

    I find it hard to believe the police showed up, took the videos and charged you and your husband just because. Seems fishy to me. I saw you on TV, you couldn’t even tell the truth there.

  23. its just like you to leave your 7-9-12yr olds on the other side of the street alone while you attack a guy in a wheelchair and 2 girls as they cried .
    hopefully child services will step in soon to stop them from seeing altercations that you have provoked!!!

  24. hey why dont you get in a altercation with richard simmons
    he is anti war and he not elderly or a female or in a wheelchair like your last victims

    ahh maybe you better not he works out!

  25. Ed has a crush on Richard Simmons! hahaha

  26. Watch the video: http://www.erietube.com/kickapps/_Peace-rally-fight/video/198337/3766.html

    The girls are attacked first. You stupid jackasses started the altercation and got your asses kicked by 2 girls. I’m guessing that would be why your trying to attack them on the internet now.

    Pathetic.

  27. hey just seen the latest video
    what a bunch of sissy ass cowards i bet that 82yr old could kick all your ass’s
    hey jason i seen your boy andrew take a swing at a girl
    like father like son way to go pops
    keep it up and someday some girl is going to realy kick the
    crap out of both you

  28. I hope the Swartouts are printing out all your comments here Ed. In fact I think I’ll email them and suggest it.

    :)

  29. Ed- I must say, I have never seen someone act as juvenile as you. I’ll say it now. I’m a teenager and I’m calling you out for the most ridiculous, juvenile name-calling, ignorant trash-talk that could only come from a garbage heap, not a human mouth.

    Timmy- I watched your video. Miss White Dress provoked the family first, took their signs, and I saw clearly, threw the first punch to Mrs. Swartout, after she pushed back the girl’s friend who was getting in her face and harassing her. Next time you decide to post ‘evidence’ supporting your claims, make sure it actually supports what you’re saying, because you just made yourself to be an ass. I watched the clip over and over, and each time, the first punch was thrown by the girl. The first provoking action was also from the girl, who harassed then took the signs. Besides, Timmy my dear, if you’re so against the ‘corrupt government’ and their military dogs, then why don’t go back to that ‘corrupt goverment’? It’s not just one side, love, it goes on every spectrum. Including police officers who refuse to stop a violent act.

    It is a police officer’s job to stop any violence and insure the safety of all individuals, no matter who started it, no matter who through the first punch, no matter their political beliefs. A police officer leaves his beliefs, his politics, at home and serves the country in neutrality and fairness. The police should have stepped in earlier, stopped the fight, and seperated both parties before those savages lunged in for another punch.

    Hm, that makes me wonder too.. these girls aren’t to blame, then why is it that everytime someone comes to break it up, it’s the girls that are charging in for another round, not the Swartouts? After all, if they were, supposedly, the offended party and the Swartouts struck first, then why didn’t they follow the cardinal rule when you’re a victim? Incapacitate (i.e., a gut punch or a groin kick,) and run, do not continue to fight, otherwise you’re as bad as the attacker.

    Oh, right, of course, the Swartouts came to counter protest. I’m sorry, but I thought that this was a country of free speech, where anyone can go to say what’s on their mind without the fear of being oppressed by other individuals, the militia/police force, and/or the government. The only time the police force should ever stop a protest is when it has the intentions of physically assaulting, vandalizing, and/or preventing the constitutional rights of another person(s).

    Free speech doesn’t just apply to you. It’s people like these peace thugs who forget that. Free speech is for everyone. Not just peace activists.

    Why, if I wanted to protest the selling of tomatoes, well damn straight I could. I’d look like a fool, but I could. If I wanted to counter protest something, including counter-protesting a protest of the war, then I have every right to, with the protection of the police force as long as I do not intentionally provoke the other side to violence or prevent them from their own demonstrations.

    Whoever raised these girls to be such violent, ignorant savages should be ashamed that they took two possibly brilliant minds and twisted them to a mindless hate and a tendency of violence towards anyone who doesn’t agree with them, and stands strong in a differnet belief.

    Remember, folks, everyone has the right to protest something. And if someone doesn’t like it, well then, tough shit. Get out of the U.S., because that’s the constitution. The Swartouts were using their constitutional right to make a say in their beliefs without intentionally causing violence. They stood out there to say, “We believe in this.” And they were attacked for it.

    I hope you ‘peaceful activists’ and you police force members that were out there that day are proud, because it’s people like you that would say no one died in Tiananmen Square.

  30. Mc Cormick is usually so stoned in public even the protesters asked him to leave on more than one occasion. We saw in one video he was actually foaming at the mouth. Nice Huh? What is it with drugs,booze and peace activests? Guess it makes them brave . Remember what Tommy Franks said..Look the female anti-war protester in the eye and smile, because she knows her boy friend is a wimp , and is probably wetting her pants over you …the soldier.

  31. As a impartial party that has been following this story and compared videos the girlie in the white dress was provoked and the blonde girl was pushed and manhandled by Mrs. Swartout.

    How about you take the time, pull the video source down and watch it in Slow Motion and most importantly PAY ATTENTION.

    I realize this is probably all too advanced for your pay grade so I’ll tell you what you’ll find out. The Swartout’s started this altercation.

    Maybe you could also do a little background check on them. You’ll find out that this isn’t the first time this family has been in this type of situation. They have a history of starting and provoking fights.

    Perhaps next time they’ll run into a protest that is organized and ready for them. One with hidden cameras and microphones catching them in the act and exposing them for the trouble makers they are.

    So Yunie, before you even attempt to address me, get your facts and an education and then maybe I’ll be so inclined to listen to you as if you were a peer.

  32. Yunie I am sure will happy to continue her debate with you Timmy, but I do have to intervene to point out how wrong you are.

    She was never provoked at all unless you regard being videotaped as provocation.

    In fact, the claims you and Ed make regarding the Swartouts all boil down to one thing, that they go to the protest rallies and observe, video tape, and vocally disagree.

    Is that really the standard you hold for provocation?

    Asid from the wheel chair fellow’s bumping people in the leg to annoy them, the girl in white made the first provoking moves. She took Jason’s sign and threw it in the street, she then stood on it to disallow his recovery, both of which are are clearly provocation. Then when he pulled the sign from under her (jack) boot, she got in Jason’s face, advancing on him in a threatening manner.

    The Vet’s wife tried to separate them, at which point the girl in green grabbed her by the jacket, the first actual assault.

    There is no compelling evidence in either video that the Vet’s wife ever touched the girl in white before the girl in green showed up and grabbed her.

    In fact, in this video at the 3:50 mark, you can see that the vet’s wife never touched her once during the lead up to the girl in green’s assault. Her hand never touched her, she was putting it between them to seperate them.

    http://www.motionbox.com/video/player/a098dab21a19e328/efebc983982e7c79

    The girl in green ran up, grabbed her by the jacket, the wife pushed the girl away and the girl in white assaulted her.

    All through this altercation, all the physical violence was initiated by the peaceniks.

    And if you honestly think that the girl in white was justified in kicking a woman in the head while wearing boots, than you are hardly the neutral observer you claim.

  33. first of Karl, your the one who’s wrong. WATCH & PAY ATTENTION. The girl in green came in to separate everyone and was shoved to the ground. If you’re going to tell me that she’s an aggressor then you’ll have to say the Vet’s wife is just as guilty because according to your claim she tried to separate them.

    Now if you’re talking about first altercation, I will ask you this. Can you hear what the vet is saying to the guy in the wheel chair? Yea didn’t think so. Now why if someone is protesting against what you believe would you go up to them and confront them and not think anything was going to happen?

    You wouldn’t. Nobody in their right mind would. Like it or not they have the right to protest. Personally I hate just about anyone who protests but it’s their right. I don’t agree with them but I wouldn’t go right into the middle of their rally and start a debate with out thinking I was going to offend someone if I did, I would go in expecting something to happen.

    I see that you choose to ignore that this family has done this in the past. That alone leads me to not trust anything they claim to be true and when there is compelling evidence that proves them to be the aggressor it should make one question what their motives are.

    Perhaps they should stay on the other side of the street and protest against the protesters. But seeing as how the Vet went into their protest that makes him the aggressor. Now before you attempt to ask how one can come to that conclusion, I’ll answer that for you with one simple word Harassment. The Vet had options. 1. leave, 2. stay away but protest against them, 3. watch from a far and keep his mouth shut and 4. confront them.

    Which one sounds aggressive to you? Yep you guessed right 4. Confront them. Now do you know why it sounds aggressive to you? Yep you guessed it again, because it is.

    Where you are correct is that nobody deserves to get kicked in the head, but then again the girl in green didn’t deserve to get shoved to the ground for trying to separate everyone, just as much as the guy in the wheelchair didn’t deserve someone confronting him and harassing him.

  34. The minute the sister in green grabbed the jacket of the vet’s wife it because assault. Period.

    You do not have any right to initiate physical contact. The vet’s wife had every right to push her away if she felt threatened.

    No matter how you parse it, the girls made the first aggressive moves in this dance.

    Should the Swartout’s not have been on that side of the street? I will debate that with you as a fair question.

    Initially only the guys son, the 14 year old was there. All he was doing was video taping.

    How was that wrong? The protest was in a public place, in a public park. There were no boundaries, and there is no evidence that he was there taunting them with his camera.

    He did argue with them when the girl in white, again one of the aggressors, began to harass him.

    Should he have stayed with his own family? Perhaps. The question is, why? What about their protest were they afraid of? Why not let him showcase what they are doing and saying? Where is their passion for their cause?

    Why block him, why hide their actions?

    The vet only came over after they kept harassing his son, blocking him from walking around and surrounding him.

    Should he have stayed away? I would have done the same if I was concerned about my son’s safety.

    Bottom line is that in all the videos, and I have downloaded and replayed both, none of the Swartout family initiated any violent actions with one exception, and that was when the vet pulled his sign out from under the girls foot.

    Yes they argued, but the violence, the physical assaults all began with the two sisters who apparently now are getting anger management and conflict resolution training.

    In other words, they lost their tempers and they made an argument into an assault.

    If you question the right of the Swartout’s to go to these rallies, I expect you to say the same to Code Pink and the people at this rally who also go to rallies and deliberately provoke reactions from witnesses with outrageous comments and behavior.

    If the girl in white and her friends were really non violent, and really wanted to avoid confrontation, all they had to do was be calm, and call a cop. Let the authorities sort out the boundaries.

    They didn’t.

    Leo, I agree that the Swartouts should have the right to protest. You say the protest was in a public place, in a public park, so true, BUT,
    even in a public park there is a right and wrong way to behave. For instance, I would not take my top of and sunbathe in the grass. Even though the 14 year old used his camera, there is also a right and wrong way to behave IMO. If the girls did not want him to video tape, why not just leave and go back to the other side??? Nothing would have happened.
    His MO is well known, he likes to argue and harrass the other side. I have stated before,
    go protest, but can the people not stay apart??? What is so wrong with that idea????
    Now, if the girls would have gone across the street and took their “showcase” to the Swartouts, putting it in their personal space, that we all treasure, I would have to agree that this was wrong. But why always try to instigate. I do not know how old you are, but I still say, a younger person should show respect to an older person,
    ( see the Pleasantville Video). This all could have been avoided. Conneaut Lake could have been avoided. Carrie clearly stated “we drove around Meadville looking for them” ( the WIB)
    WHY????? This is not a hateful group in Meadville, believe me, I would be the first to tell you, they are hateful, I would not want anything to do with people like that. But the ones I know, ARE peaceful.
    The Swartouts have tried real hard through their son, to FINALLY make some headlines. WHY??
    Now CODE PINK, they ARE over the top, or the Family in Kentucky who goes to Soldiers Funerals. THEY NEED TO BE PROTESTED!!!!!!
    Please look at the Video at the Diamond, and watch it without taking sides. Jason is yelling and screaming about him being a Soldier, and taking a bullet for that lady, and that he is going shortly back to Iraq, kept asking, am I a Terrorist???? The answer from the Lady was not
    smart, but then neither was Jason’s, he does and will not take a bullet for her. I know he likes to present himself as a FRONTLINE SOLDIER, but clearly he is not. But I still would not call him a Terrorist, perhaps if he screams long and loud enough in my face, I would call him something different, but not a Terrorist. This is exactly how the whole argument happened on the Iraq Forum. He would gladly take a bullet for ME. My son will be more than willing to do that, I explained, he is in Iraq right now. He IS dodging bullets or rpg’s, whatever you want to call it.

    I still believe that there is enough room in Meadville for two parties to co-exist. You go
    on this side of the street, and we go on this side of the street. So easy, in my mind anyway.
    UNLESS one side is looking for trouble.
    His hate for me is very great, first, I believe because I am a german citizen, second, I looked a little closer at this Soldier and found that he presents himself as a former paratrooper,
    being in Iraq, NOW, smashing someones face and pleading PTSD, and probably getting away with it. Yes EAGLES you can be real proud of him.
    Oh yes, he also called me a TRAITOR, because I do NOT like the war. I support the Soldiers, wherever they are, but not this unjust war IMO.

    And I have explained to Jason, WHY I do not like war period. I thought when my son joined the Military, he joined to protect us, the USA,
    not invade another country and blow up innocent people. Why the boy who so much respected life, all living creatures, the boy who built Bluebird houses, so I now can watch many bluebirds we have gained over the years. Somewhere along the way I have failed him. I raised them both to respect even a little bug, they ALL have a place in nature. Humans forget, somehow WE ARE ALL CONNECTED WITH NATURE. I got sidetracked, sorry. wish for Peace, but NOT THRU SUPERIOUR FIREPOWER.

    P.S. Please overlook my mistakes in writing.

  36. One thing I forgot to say, you are all Soldiers former Vietnam
    or wherever, yes???? Why oh Why can you speak so mean to this Soldier, who is fighting right now in Iraq, because of his Fiance. It is not his fault. Why you speak so terrible to him.
    And still he replied with kindness. You would not want anyone to talk bad about your wife/fiance???/Mom (since tomorrow is Mothers Day). We all have feelings, some can hide them better than others. And obviously this girl just had enough. I can understand her. I live by the Golden Rule, I always try to put myself in your/or whoever shoes!!! How would I like that?????
    No, I would not like this or that, so I think, neither would you.yes???
    And obviously this Soldier in Iraq is under terrible stress,
    a stress that Jason will NEVER know!!!! Plus this young man has
    truly PTSD. I can only feel sad, that you treat your Brother in Uniform with so much hatred. Are we not ALL ONE HUMAN BEING???
    In this smal ball of EARTH??? Think about it, whether you like the war or like me NOT, but as HUMAN BEINGS, AMERICANS, should we/you not STAND TOGETHER?????? Together you are STRONG,
    apart, you will FALL. This is not written with hate in my heart,
    actually only sadness. I tried very hard to speak that way to Jason and Carrie. I knew since I joined the Forum there was hatred, but I never believed it would be THAT BAD, for your brother or sister, if you believe in GOD. Turn the other cheek??? Love one another??? Should we ALL not learn from the
    Fanatic Muslims???? Are we not better than them???? I still hope for peace, I grew up with much hatred around me in my Family, all over Religion and something personal. So I always
    thought, when I grow up I will make Peace everywhere!!!
    Dream of a child. I told Jason also, he needs not make himself look bigger. Why the need, I do not know. But his job is not less or more important in the Military than yours yours and yours, and my sons. UNITED STATES MILITARY??????? Call me simple, but to forget ones importance and you focus on your brother/sister in GOD, all can not be so bad??????yes?? no????
    My heart goes out to this Soldier, to read your replies. And also remember, THERE ARE ALWAYS 2 SIDES!!!!!! It always takes 2 to fight. I will apologize for you, for my son, I need to, as I feel so much sorrow for him. Will you apologize?? And wish him
    the best and this girl who went out that morning, I am sure not thinking, I feel like fighting today. What will the Magistrate think if she sees that, even the young man is getting, “ready
    to go hippy bashing”. And many more things. Why???? Have we as humans not more evolved. If there would be great hunger in this
    small Meadville, would we not and SHOULD we not share our food??? Not exchange bad words. There is still peacetime in the US, let us all live like that.

  37. Leo, Leo, Leo…you’re so far off from the truth it’s sick…I have done my research and let me tell you this…the sisters are not getting any training nor are they going to anger management.

    If you’re telling me the blonde started the aggression when she touched the vets wife and that the she (the vets wife) had that right because she was threatened then I have to tell you that you’re wrong and sorry, stupid (I’d rather not get into name calling and am sorry for that). You can clearly see the girl in green stepped in to break up the altercation and in return was shoved and assaulted.

    I have kids myself, and there is no way I’d let them go over to a group of protesters to film them. Most people that protest are very passionate about their beliefs and that lends itself to altercations.

    I think it’s funny that none of you have addressed this family’s history for being involved in such altercations. I’m sorry, but if this were the first time maybe it’s easy to believe them, but it’s not.

    I’m not saying anyone was right, I feel both parties were wrong. But I also can see what happened and this family needs to be punished for staring this. This doesn’t mean that the girlie in white shouldn’t be punished for her retaliation.

  38. I was a little confused by Lori Harmison,s posting and much of it didnt make much sence. Well at least it didnt to me. It also says something about her being educated? She seems to know the Swartouts personally.

    Lori Says: I thought when my son joined the Military, he joined to protect us, the USA,
    not invade another country and blow up innocent people. ??????
    Major says: Like al qaeda does? So you are saying your son blows up inocent people? I dont think so .I believe he must be a brave man, and you should be proud of him.

    Lori Says: One thing I forgot to say, you are all Soldiers former Vietnam
    or wherever, yes????
    Major says: No! ( or whatever??? ) Many of US are mothers, children, friends, neighbors, and yes, even foreigners.

    Lori says: So I always
    thought, when I grow up I will make Peace everywhere!!!
    Major says: No ..you are a trouble maker! You copy and paste others comments to incite hardships between party’s. Just like you are doing here. If you are going to quote someone, get your facts right also. Like you said, the girls boyfriend is in Iraq.. Wrong!!! He is serving in Afghanistan.

    Lori says: And also remember, THERE ARE ALWAYS 2 SIDES!!!!!! It always takes 2 to fight.
    Major says: Two ??? Whos the guy with the tattoos beating on Mr Swartout and professors laughing and not helping to break up the assault. The professor in the wheel chair is clearly bumping his chair into Swartout trying to get him to retaliate, than probably scream …he’s picking on the crippled guy… Help…Help …

    What will the Magistrate think?

    A father went across a street in the United States of America, to defend and protect his 14 year old son. The boy did not break any laws, and was only using his constitutional rights as a United States CITIZEN to film and document someone else’s right to assemble ALSO , and he was attacked by adults . What happened before or after this incident has no bearing on the judges decision.

    The only thing worse that not having any rights, is not knowing what your rights are.

  39. The Swartout’s have participated peacefully in hundreds of counter-protests in the past year. The only incident has been the Dewalt case in which an old lady decided to kick Mr. Swartout because she didn’t want him at their protest. She was charged and found guilty of harrasment. That’s as far as these supposed “incidents” go. Nice try Timmy….. Keep researching…

  40. haha…nice but don’t be so quick to dismiss.

    How about you try again.

  41. Happy Mothers Day, to ALL YOU MOMS.
    Major I think you have me all wrong. I do not like to incite Hate. But after several months of trying for PEACE I had to accept that there will be no Peace. I copy and post LIES
    when I see clearly I am dealing with a Bully, who wants to take bullets FOR me. Look deep inside Jason, you are a GOD LOVING Family you say. Then please act accordingly and let your light shine in a positive way. I have no hate in my heart. I do not
    like Bullies, a person who belittles other people to make himself look BIG AND STRONG. Wrong, that is so wrong. You can call me a lot of things if you wish, but hateful I am not. And if the man in the wheelchair “touched” Jason, I think you all heard what Jason yelled, “you fu… touch me” I have a right to defend myself, how sad is that?? Walk away and thank your GOD that you CAN WALK. He was no threat, The whole scenario could have been avoided. Respect each others personal space. We all have that, I am sure you do also Major. Paint me as a troublemaker, the people who know me, also know that I am and have been for Peace, I will never waver on that. I am aware that perhaps I am dreaming, but at least I can hope for that, And EDUCATED I am not. It does not need education to be kind, loving and have compassion for your neighbor, even if he thinks different from me. No, Sir, I am not educated, Walk away from a confrontation, do not seek it out, such is my thinking. The only thing I know about the Swartouts what they let everyone know, by their words, deeds and actions.
    And just because something is MY RIGHT, does not mean I have to act on it. To send your children into a crowd of people who just feel as passionate as you are about your cause, right or wrong)
    is bad parenting. So this Soldier is in Afghanistan, that makes it less dangerous??? He should not plead PTSD??? But Jason Swartout can plead that, if necessary. You do not know me, I never have been nor will I be a troublemaker, I am for PEACE,
    in case you did not understand me.
    Carrie Swartout also had the same trouble as you, Sir, she could not understand me either. Or did not want to. Do you want to read how this Family thinks??? For the young man to get ready and go “hippy bashing all weekend”, and Jason was asked why did you have to stand infront of the older Vet in CL, “because I can”. And “we are a military family who abuses
    Hippies, what is wrong with that”??? It just gives the Magistrate an inside of the mindset of this Soldier. Yes all this sounds very peaceful to me. Like someone on the Meadville Forum said, “why can you not all shut up, you KNOW THIS KID’s MO, yes we do. Does not make it right. And if my son at 36 would have spoken to Mr. DeWalt like he did, he would have received a kick from his Mother. I do not even need to KNOW MY RIGHTS, I have a basic understanding how we should treat each other. I live by the Golden Rule. And I never had a problem in all these years. But when you quote the Bible, claim to be loving GOD, and tell LIES, belittle people,
    well, Jason should not be surprised that these lies would catch up with him. If you are an Eagle, telling lies are acceptable???
    I only have met one Eagle, and come away thinking the EAGLES are good and kind and fighting for their ideas, which is their right, but stay with the TRUTH, if you lie, you make the GATHERING OF EAGLES look not as credible, and you Sir, by overlooking this “Paratrooper” with a bad back, you do not look so credible. Makes me think about your group in a very different light. Both sides should be able to stay on the other side of the Road, to me that is so simple. Go by the Golden Rule. However this stops when I am attacked walking in a park, I will defend myself. But the Swartouts where not attacked, neither in CL nor in Edinboro. They sought action and they received it, and the Law had the last word, as it will be in
    Edinboro also. We all have our invisible “fence” around us, every single one of us, and to respect that, is not that hard to do, if you love peace. If you look for trouble, well you have a scenario like Edinboro and CL. You stay on your side,
    they stay on their side. Does it really need be written as a law, what peace/law abiding citizen should know, and teaching their kids???? Throw the FBomb at me, it does not bother me,
    LIE to me, to make yourself be important belittle other people, make fun of their spelling, do not respect a Major in our Forum, that bothers me to the extend that I will look a little closer, AND I DID!!!!

  42. P.S. Major, your heavy sarcasm was truly noted, but not taken
    seriously. Where you get the idea I am EDUCATED, I will never
    know. But since there are not just Veterans, to all the Mothers
    MAY YOU BE TREASURED AND RESPECTED, not just on this day, but THRU OUT THE YEAR!!!!!!!!!!.

  43. Lore Harmison is one of the Meadville Women in Black. Nothing she says is credible. I heard she may have a libel suit brought against her soon…..

  44. I thought this was you, lol. LORE HARMISON is NOT one of the WIB, NEVER HAS BEEN. But I do know some of them, and the ones I know are peaceful, have always said that. I can only speak for the ones I know. HM bring on a Libel Suit if you think it is
    necessary to clear your name. I have no problem. My main plea
    was for PEACE in Meadville and you know it. I have been to two
    vigils, are Friends of the WIB, but here you go again, saying I belong to the WIB. That is how this sad, underhanded scenario
    started. Believe what you want, You are a disgrace to the Gathering of Eagles, and need to teach your oldest son, some manners. No means No, leave me alone,
    Go by the Golden Rule, and you can never go wrong. I only judge
    people by their words, deads and actions. Their clothes, title, big homes, big cars or what their good standing in a community is, does not impress me. Show me how you feed the hungry and clothes them, especially if you quote the bible, now THAT impresses me.
    You are hiding behind the Gathering of Eagles, would you stand alone, you still would be a Coward with a bad back from too many jumps as a Paratrooper, now to that I have to say, ha ha ha. I AM surprised you did not mention my Depression. And Lore
    Harmison is very proud that she has credibility in all she does.
    No need to brag, we are all equal, some are just more fortunate than others, where they are born, their time and in what circumstances. I think we all should be thankful for what we have. After all, the only thing you leave behind IS your good name. All the other things are just that “things”, that can
    be destroyed in a second in water/fire/tornado etc. But people will always remember your name. There is NO need to fight against each other with so much hate. And if there are a few rotten apples on either side. Well lets deal with them, both sides should be able to weed them out. HATE BEGETS HATE, and America is already hated in the World, so why not stand TOGETHER and be PROUD AMERICANS. The man who went after the girl in the wheelchair, should have got a beating, so he could spend some time in a wheelchair to realize how it feels. There are certain circumstances where one NEEDS to fight, for your life or your friends, loved ones life, but never just because someone has a different opinion than you or I. I have a best friend who is a pentecostal, we never talk about religion, but she and I have other things in common, and we treasure these things we can do together. But one must be willing to bend a little. So call me a WIB, which I am not, but if this is the worst you can find out about me, I am still very proud.
    And I am proud of my reputation in this small town of Meadville,
    treat people like you wish to be treated, you can NEVER GO WRONG.

    haha on May 11th, 2008 at 9:14 pm
    Lore Harmison is one of the Meadville Women in Black. Nothing she says is credible. I heard she may have a libel suit brought against her soon…..

    See, this alone tells me something about you. Hiding behind this haha. And you talk about credibility. I have NEVER DONE ANYTHING BEHIND SOMEONES BACK, I come from the FRONT and TELL YOU MY NAME, that was instilled in me and that is what I instilled in my 2 boys. To talk about people under a cover is about as brave as the insurgents with their face covered up
    when they killed Nick Berg. You all have a nice day, enjoy the present. Lore Harmison, Saegertown PA 16433. By the way,
    now I know what Major meant by EDUCATED, that is part of the AVITAR. Did not chose it, but liked the picture, it shows up
    in the Meadville Forum, where I will stay, as I have nothing in
    common with anyone here. To save me more grief, I will not post here anymore. You enjoy your BRAVE SOLDIER, who dodges bullets and has a bad back from to many jumps as a Paratrooper. How sad is that. Oh wait, there is NoWorries, who is in Iraq right now, has 4 little children all under 4 and a paralyzed mother in a wheelchair. THANK YOUR GOD, THAT YOU HAVE HEALTHY CHILDREN AND A MOTHER THAT IS HEALTHY AND CAN WALK!!!!!!!!!!! And you talk about CREDIBILITY!!!!!!!!!!!! SHAME ON YOU.

  45. I’ve heard all about you…. Like I said I think you might want to watch what you’re saying on the internet. It’s hard to take back libelous statements once they are recorded.

  46. That is the worst part??? Is it not. And especially on Topix.
    Once you brag on there how GREAT YOU ARE, it stays there.
    Once you brag how bad your back is, that you have wear stuff in your boots, lol. But most of all your bad bad back, from too
    many jumps.
    See, I do believe that there are not very many people who built
    themself up like you, or Jason Swartout I should say. In Germany we have a saying, the beggar rides more proud on a horse, than a king, when he has a chance to ride.
    How you guys steel the signs, I give the rest of the EAGLES
    more credit, than to write about how you steel signs. Put it on the WEB. SUE ME. I told you before. SUE ME. You are not worth
    to hide under the proud name of GATHERING OF EAGLES. You give them a bad name. While you are at it, Tim Lucas can do it.
    Shame on you, PARATROOPER, and portray yourself as a Soldier in the Diamond, yelling and screaming at a women, I will take a bullet for you, I am a Soldier, and I am going back to Iraq and take a bullet for you. I am very well aware, that once you write something down, you cannot take it back. I really thought you had learned your lesson. Protest all you want. Even scream across the street. But sending in your boy, that is plain stupidity. Those young people are as passionate as you and your family is. That is why I do not go to Peaceprotests. Since I have a son there now for the last 12 months, my nerves are a little freight so I just write letters, write cards to my “adopted sons and daughters” and go shopping to put packages together and visit WWII Vets who can no longer walk, but I love to hear their stories. You have no ideas what a great feeling it is, when you take some old Veteran out and let him smell the spring flowers and let him see the sun. That is a wealth, no money in the world does compare with that. Not only do they enjoy it, but what they give me, as a human being, they will never know. Thas is WEALTH and RICHES for me.
    I am for Peace, call me a dreamer, but I will not give up. So far you have not attacked my Depression and called me schizo,
    that is kind of you, Jason. And I still believe, if we all could sit together we would understand each other, we even could be kind to each other. And this all started, because you believe I belong to the WIB!!! That is sad. I do my own thing.
    All alone. Someone mentioned CYS, and that is where I draw the line, THAT is wrong. Not for one minute do I believe that you both are not good parents and love your children. Nobody could convince me of that. And this is exactly my point about this horrible war. The children, the innocent children who will never have a future. Oh well, I tried. Do what you have to do.
    I can never convince you that I had enough hate in my young life, that I wanted to life in Peace and spread Peace, Blessed is the Peacemaker??? I guess I am not as peaceful as I thought,
    by replying to you. I read all the posts from different people who wanted to come to Meadville and kick some a..! I went to ask for someone to help keep peace. That was before Christmas.
    Easter came and went, nothing has changed. As A PEOPLE we should ALL STAND TOGETHER, protect each other, NOT FIGHT EACH OTHER!!! THAT WAS NEVER MY INTENTION!!! And you know it. I HATE THIS WAR, BUT SUPPORT THE SOLDIERS, do what I can for them, even in Germany, my daughter in law still has a Mother and her
    young children staying there while her husband is in Iraq. One is american, one is german. one is catholic, one is evangelical. This girl needs to pay no rent, it is the least my
    daughter in law can do when you have a big home. ALL think on this. As a PEOPLE, if everyone does a little, gives in a little, try to make a better world for our children and grandchildren. Is this so hard. I do not need any Laws to tell me how to behave towards you!! I look inside, what would I like. I guess we all have lost, like I said, we all have lost in Conneaut Lake and Edinboro, a little of our humanity toward each other, and this still makes me sad. A TRAITOR I AM NOT!!!! I just do not like this war.

  47. Apparantly you don’t know who I am. But Carrie has told me about you. You read some posts by several different people on an Erie Forum and swear it is Jason. If you only knew these two you would not that is not their style. The problem is when you go all over the internet ranting about this it is making libelous statements about them. That’s not cool lady! Would you like someone to do that to you. You talk about treating others the way you want to be treated. Walk the walk chick!

    No one stole any signs anyway. Call the state police and ask them if it is ok to take down the anti-war signs that are left on public property. Go ahead and call them. They are the ones who gave our group the permission to take them down. They said we would be doing them and PennDot a favor.

    Actually the quote from the Diamond was “I’m going back to Iraq and I don’t hope to die but if I do I do it for you” No one said anything about taking a bullet. It’s sad though that you don’t realize that combat soldier or not he is still volunteering to enter a war zone for your freedom. He sacrifices time from his wife and kids for you. You’d think you would be a little more appreciative.

    I know that Andrew is a great kid and is passionate about his country and the military. He’s also a great student who is working on an awesome project with his video camera.

    The Swartouts do all the stuff you said. Their kids spend lots of time around Veterans. They do stuff for them. They pack boxes and gather donations for those currently serving. Andrew has been to Walter Reed. Have you? Don’t talk down to this family like you are so much better than them. They do just as much as you and probably more. The best you can do is to belittle them and try to cause public hatred toward them.

    The Swartouts want peace as well. They just feel it is attained through strength. Do you honestly think Carrie and the kids want Jason to go back to a war zone? come on lady get real…

    I think too if you talked to Carrie and Jason you would think differently of them. They only problem they would have is these lies you are telling about Jason. Whatever forum you read that crap about paratroopers and bad backs was not Jason. Like I said that’s not his style.

    Maybe the peace can start with you. The Swartouts decided a while ago not to respond to anymore of your posts. I got mad when I saw you posting away and they were not defending themselves. That’s not right. So maybe you can create some peace and just stop posting about them. Maybe someday they will sit down and talk to you. I know Carrie would live to send your son a care package. Maybe one for his wife as well. But she can’t call and ask for an address when you are treating them like this in the public forum.

    think about that for a bit….

    AMERICAN’S ARE BEING BETRAYED BY INCOMPETENT LEADERSHIP

    There is a cry, more of a whimper, asking American citizens to standup and be counted, to take account of what’s happening to each of us, recognize the “sell-out” of America to greedy opportunist….to confront a worthless Congress and Administration that takes us to war, waffles, hesitates, back-tracks, cries the “war is lost”…to demand leadership work on
    issues affecting citizens right here in America……so far it’s ho hum…yawn…

    What’s it going to take………gas to reach $8.00 per gallon? Milk at $10.00 per gallon, bread at $6.00 a loaf, a small can of beans at $3.00, eggs at $5.00 per dozen, another 20 million illegal aliens to endanger our highways, clog our emergency rooms, over-crowd our schools, fill our prisons, empty social programs? Think about it…….will we continue to sit at home and whine while politicians, corporations, wall-street and others bleed us dry. The prices and conditions above are coming unless American citizens demand an end to corruption and insist on leadership and accountability throughout America for America.

    In case America has forgotten, nearly everything we consume, need, use, comes to us via truck. Are you aware of diesel fuel costs today? Over $4.00 per gallon and rising everyday…….you know what that means for American citizens that need to eat, put fuel in their vehicles to get to work, put clothes on children, go to church? It translates to being gouged, betrayed, abandoned by leadership in America and an outside enemy.

    Worse yet, in addition to cowardly American leadership, it should be obvious where the basic gouging occurs. Middle Eastern and other nations are feeding on the blood of our warriors and the dollars being stolen from us at our own gas pumps.

    If there was ever validity to the “trickle down effect”, it is a reality in America today……when gas prices increase a penny, so does your milk, eggs,meat, butter, bread and beans…do you realize milk and egg price has nearly doubled in the last year..farmers are impacted by fuel prices greatly…take off your blinders my friends, we are caught in a vicious cycle. The terrorist and those that support them have us where they want us. We sacrifice lives, body parts and blood, spend billions in treasure in a tangible fight for freedom in Iraq and Afghanistan while Muslim countries and enemies of America drain our pocket books through American gas stations. It will take courageous leadership to untangle the mess.

    So what about American leadership? Hear of any new oil wells being drilled anywhere in American soil? Any new refineries being built? Any serious efforts on alternative fuels? Any action on the billions being spent to care for illegal aliens? No, the Administration and Congress come up with some ****amamie scheme of rebate which may fill the tanks twice. They ignore the basic problem because to fix it would cut the profits of the greedy corporations, speculators, politicians, and oil producing countries…

    All we hear is the insane, disgusting, rhetorical insulting nonsense from presidential candidates who are filled with a selfish, personal power agenda…one candidate suggests taking the gas tax off for the summer…no one ever accused a politician of deep thinking…….none of them worth the crotch sweat of one American warrior who they use as cannon fodder.

    Folks I’ll tell you, I think I know how to get the attention of those who have accepted leadership responsibility…it will require action from tens of millions of Americans that love our nation, what it stands for, willing to sacrifice and put America before personal need. I used to think the ballot box was the answer, but it isn’t.

    We must step onto the street, put “boots on the ground” in massive numbers throughout America and bring America to a halt for a few days….in short send a message that “we’ve had enough and demand solutions for America, not the world”…or worse is to come.

    Many of us have spent some time in the fox-hole and we have men and women in the fox-hole today…politicians of both parties sold me and America out by surrendering a war we won in Viet Nam and I see a great deal of comparison in Washington that reflects another sell-out attitude.

    Today, the sell-out reaches well beyond military impact. If we honestly examine conditions in America, we can only conclude a disaster is in the making and our very existence is in jeopardy.

    I am only one, but Friday from 4 PM to 6 PM I’ll be on the street in my town…it’s not enough, but it’s something and I can do more.

    This man could not have said it any better.

    Now here is a man WE ALL SHOULD LISTEN TO, INSTEAD OF FIGHTING.
    We should stand behind him, listen to him, as perhaps he has some good plans, that BENEFITS ALL AMERICANS, not just left or right.

    The WIB and VFP are hypocrites and liars.
    I will never stand with them peaceably because I know their desire is to undermine the military, lose the war, and to shame our President!!!! I will continue to find them where they protest and demonstrate to the public that they hate America and our military. This is my right and my duty.
    And I am more than willing to waterboard a WIB to find out where they are meeting next week!!!
    We do not protest the Hippies. We COUNTER them because they protest against the military and our country. As far as going at separate times, it’s pretty hard to COUNTER someone if they aren’t there isn’t it!

    No school today ma’am, have to get prepared for a weekend of nonstop hippy bashin’. Got to make sure that the camera is charged and my American flag is ready. Can’t be too prepared! Just thought of something when I protest the hippies there are many things you learn in school tied into the mix. There is history, logic, science, phyical exercise.

Bush & Cheney lied to get us into this war in the hopes that they could make big $$$ for thier buddies. As a result the dollar is in the crapper and the price of oil is at a record high. Thank you to all the stupid and blind republicans who followed, like sheep, GWB to slaughter. Maybe you should send you sons and daughters to Iraq to die for GWB and his ‘oil war’.

    NoWorries REPLY:
    So it would appear that I am being to vulger for Topix to post my comments, hmm, must be a lib monitor.
    My son and daughter’s are all under four years old, so your silly request to send your children to die is obsurd. Afterall, I thought we lived in a country with a volunteer military, not a you are being sent military.

    Ok, so let me try this one again, yet this time I’ll leave out all of the words that hurt the libs feelings.

    It’s funny how my wife has to sit through safety briefings that are informing her of all the dangers there are out here because of her having a husband in Iraq. It’s funny that the gov is telling her not to put any support ribbons on her van because they are being vandalized. It’s funny how my wife cannot hang a service star flag in the window of our house because homes are being broken into and vandalized by cry baby libs that think they are making a STATEMENT in the name of peace by ruining military wives lives.

    It’s funny that you think when I come home you will be able to look me in the face and tell me I was wrong for the profession I CHOSE, not you or the Pres. I CHOSE IT…

    What is even more funny, is when I kick your face in for talking your smack, I will plead Temp Insanity due to PTSD. Oh and I’ll bet I get away with it. Better yet, talk to my wife or kids about what it is to be an American, I guarantee it’ll be the last conversation you have.

    Oh, but that is so typical for a crazy repub to say this stuff. I am not a republican, I AM A SOLDIER. Any vet, be it a combat vet or not, has given their country more than any of you cry babies. You should be thanking this country for letting you parasites stay here, you should not complain. You are lucky that we let you partake in what we fight for.

    My wife, my children, and my paralyzed mother have served their country more, and with more honor, than any of you bleeding heart liberals. Tell my wife you aren’t satisfied with the war in Iraq, she might agree. Tell her you disagree with what her husband does, and I guarantee she’ll smash you in the face. She and all the other wives are the first to critisize, yet they are the first to support everything about us.

    You people are sick, and really have no right to live in a country that has and is fighting so hard to keep this country real.

    Can you maybe call a friend and complain, cause we really are getting sick and tired of hearing you cry about the same thing every single day of your fat and pathetic lives…

    Now Major, am I being a Troublemaker by posting this????????
    IF this is NOT Jason SWARTOUT ( NoWorries) I will apologize,
    and furtermore I expect them to take me to court for slandering
    and libel. My Home, everything we have, will be the SWARTOUTS.
    It is very easy to find out if you have connection higher up,
    otherwise you would have to have a Judges approval to do so, since the Swartouts feel this is not them. You are a big Group,
    I am positive there is SOMEONE who can find out within 1 hour who is behind what poster. Because there are more.
    But since I am NOT a troublemaker I will be quiet now and let you do your work. And still I have NO ILL WILL towards Jason and Carrie. I say it again, there are 2 sides to every story.

    This is just to present another side. And peaceful it does not
    sound.

    I am not going even to print about the Paratrooper. I did not want to put this here, but You keep calling me a troublemaker. Not so, Sir. I do not like people who brag, make themself bigger so they can talk down to “peons”. I find this
    not becoming for a Soldier.
    Jason can tell you how to go to that Forum. Actually, it is
    Go.Erie.com Topix

    Lore Harmison is one of the Meadville Women in Black. Nothing she says is credible. I heard she may have a libel suit brought against her soon…..

    and this haha, the LIE that I am a WIB is my response. I have
    nothing to lose with a libel suit. Nothing. I have tried to make PEACE.
    I pride myself by telling the Truth, even if it makes me look bad.

    My Son’s and Daughter’s are all under the age of four. Even with a wife and three kids, I still found it to be my duty as a soldier to volunteer for this “senseless war.”
    How about a sign that says, “Support the Troops, Finish the War!”
    I can tell you though that we are having safety briefing after safety briefing on what our families can and cannot say or do while we are gone. It would appear that vehicles with the support ribbons on them are getting scratched and ruined, homes with the servicemember star flags are getting broken into and vandalized. As a matter of fact, our higher ups have sat with our wives and told them that for thier safety they are not allowed to let on at all that the man of the house is away fighting in this war that you call senseless. So not only am I going to be in Iraq fighting, but now my wife has to fight here at home to keep my family safe because you liberal fuckers are taking **** way too far.
    Don’t let me come back and have one of you lib fucks stand in front of me and tell me that I was wrong for the last year of my life. I am a soldier, I am not the government and I will **** your life up quicker than you think. Just test me on if PTSD is a real **** illness.
    One thing I will say, if you are a vet, rather a combat vet or not, you have done more for this country than any of you bleeding heart lib **** that attend noght school at a freaky little lib influenced college such as Edinboro.
    My wife serves this country more than you ever will. So cry about your little feelings getting hurt by the Bush admin, but realize you haven’t done **** for your country, so to me all you are is a pathetic, overheard piece that really needs to shut your pie hole before my boot does.

    Your vulgar language speaks volumes, as well as the comments of your supporters - Ruth, citigirl, WIB

    Major, TWO SIDES, TWO SIDES to every story, EVEN THIS STORY!!!!

    Why the Hate for Edinboro, I will never know, perhaps the Magistrate can find out.

  50. Lore, why on earth are you even on this website? As with most peaceniks, I am seriously offended by your tactics. There’s “getting the message across” and then there’s being an obnoxious pain in the ass. At some point, the right to make your message heard is impinging upon the rights of people who have heard it already and don’t agree with it.

  51. Sarah, this came right on top of the credibility statement.
    If you wish, I gladly take this all off, because it does not
    help anyone. And you can call me an obnoxious ass, that I can
    live with, but call me a TRAITOR, that makes my hair stand on end, lol.

    So, I be glad to take all this off, tell me how,
    and perhaps we can all go on and forget about it,
    and have to agree, that we all have faults. Yes???
    Some are not bigger than others. I will take this
    off and wont come back on your Forum, deal????

  52. Whoever said, you are not a Peacemaker, obviously is right.
    Before all the GOE looks bad upon Jason and Carrie, let me
    say, NoWorries, is not Jason. I made that up, and I also faked
    the other writings about Jason, and Andrew. I could not go to
    bed, knowingly make someone look bad, so Jason and Carrie, please forgive me. A Peacemaker does not act in such a way. And it is sad that my son in Iraq had to impress on me, Mom, that is not you. You had a perfect chance to make friends with a couple, and could have invited them someday when I am back, to Germany, especially since they have children. I do not understand you anymore, Mom!!! He is still my brother in Uniform, no matter what rank. I just hung up with him and pondered over my actions. But I will not let the sun go down, without apologizing. All the good I do, does not mean anything,
    when I speak ill of my fellow human being.
    So again I apologize, hope you can forgive me, to put that name on you, knowing very well, IT IS NOT YOU!!!! To Carrie, you have a brother Reno, no matter how much we argued, I was always
    amazed, that he never cussed me out.
    Before we can have PEACE we all need to work a little harder on
    “Love one another”. I know I do!!!! But a Traitor or a WIB I am not.

  53. So lore, WHEN are you goinhg to try some LOVE instead of the gutless HATRED you continuously spew?????

    By the way, have YOU ever been to Iraq??????

  54. Lore, I’m going to interject with some common sense. It may be foreign to you but I’m quite comfortable with it.

    If you’re going to rebuttal, try to at least make sense. Assuming all of those posts are by Jason Swartout and not by some other one of the hundreds of Jasons in the armed forces with a family is like assuming that the funny pictures on a beer bottle is talking to you.

    Not to mention from your posts, it looks like you’re trying to add three, four, five more sides to this. I thought you said there were two?

    Honey, make up your mind. I’m a freaking high school teenager and I’m less confusing then you. Sorry, but that is really, really sad.

  55. haha on May 12th, 2008 at 7:54 pm
    Apparantly you don’t know who I am. But Carrie has told me about you. You read some posts by several different people on an Erie Forum and swear it is Jason. NO I CHECKED IT OUT!!!!!!
    Carrie: remember I always said, I read carefully:

    Coincidence???? Does not matter anymore, I was even trying to
    make all this, like I was making this up. FOR PEACE.

    What do I get this morning, GUTLESS HATRED?????????
    No, Sir, you are looking at the wrong person.
    Take a good look at one of your EAGLES NoWorries aka Jason Swartout.
    I have tried. I have failed, now it is up to you to believe what you want, and if you want to help him. And yes there are always 2 sides!!! Lets be fair on this!!!!!!!
    But trust me, Jason Swartout IS NoWorries.
    And do not worry, I wont be back here anymore. And now
    NoWorries can really sue me.

  56. Lady you are a nut!!! I copy and pasted Carrie’s post on here to repost it, obviously. You seriously should take your sons advice and cut this out. Do you have a life???

  57. Oh Lore, Lore, Lore, please stay and prove me wrong, otherwise I will forever shake my head and know that you’re nothing more then a fraudulent, big-talking peacenik.

    That is the worst part??? Is it not. And especially on Topix.
    Once you brag on there how GREAT YOU ARE, it stays there.
    Once you brag how bad your back is, that you have wear stuff in your boots, lol. But most of all your bad bad back, from too
    many jumps

    Pardon? Most of that doesn’t make sense, but I do have to notice something… It’s the fact that all this time on this blog post, you’ve been puffing up your feathers and strutting about how ‘great’ you are and how horrible the rest of the Americans are and how they should follow your example.

    Shame on you, PARATROOPER, and portray yourself as a Soldier in the Diamond, yelling and screaming at a women, I will take a bullet for you, I am a Soldier, and I am going back to Iraq and take a bullet for you.

    I’m sorry, I thought you were a mother of a soldier, or something of the like. I suppose I’m wrong because your posts were so confusing and so chopped up.. Why.. it’s almost like you stole from other people’s posts instead of trying to write something yourself!

    You know, it seems like you’re just posting a lot of random political posts to just try to push your political ideas on other people, instead of trying to prove your facts and sources and give yourself credibility.

    Anyways, just had to state those few point. Now onto my major point.

    Lore Harmison.

    You are one of the people that turn my stomache and make me curl my lip in disgust.

    People like you have no imagination, and a puffed up ego of their own humdrum existence. You’re fanatical in your beliefs and illusions, and you lash out insanely at anyone who attempts to disagree with you.

    You sit all day on other people’s blogs, journals, and spend your life searching for any chance to interject how great you are into something. Over and over in your posts I kept seeing allusions to ‘how great of an American [you] are’ and ‘how sad [you] are for seeing the Americans not as great as [you] are.’

    All you ever do is sit there like a peacock, fluffing out ridiculous feathers, loudly declaring how wonderful you are. You sit in the proverbial right-hand chair, shaking your head sadly at what you call ridiculous people. You forever condemn those around you while refusing to see your own faults. You even go so far as to make excuses for how much money you have and your large and wonderful home.

    Instead of talking politics on here as you should be, as this is a political blog, you sit there and look for excuses to interject yourself in.

    So let me say this.

    Grow the fuck up.

    Once you put on your big-girl diapers, then why don’t you come back and start proving me wrong. In the mean time, go ahead and strut your feathers and make the people around you hate your guts and detest your very existence. Right now, if someone told me you were a leader of Code Pink, I would probably believe them, despite you calling out against that group in an earlier post.

    So, back onto the Swartouts…

  58. All you ever do is sit there like a peacock, fluffing out ridiculous feathers, loudly declaring how wonderful you are.

    Instead of talking politics on here as you should be, as this is a political blog, you sit there and look for excuses to interject yourself in.

    So let me say this.

    Grow the fuck up.

    Excuse me. BIG HOME, A LOT OF MONEY????????????????
    Where did I say this???????????????????lol
    I said IT DOES NOT IMPRESS ME. NoWorries aka Jason Swartout
    should grow up. If I would judge you by your language, well I would say, you a not very nice, and then no wonder a NoWorries
    aka Jason Swartout can be using his filthy language under your
    GOE COVERS. But I do not believe YOU SpEAK FOR ALL EAGLES.
    I have way to many faults to even start posting, but I am who
    I am. Does it not bother you, you have one among you like
    NoWorries????????????? Who lies????? Is that why are you so angry?????? I think that is the real reason, why you use language like you do. You poor soul. Do not like to see the truth, blame it all on the LIBS, lol. Go ahead, that is truly working towards PEACE. You just showed me, you are NO BETTER THAN THE PEOPLE YOU HATE, THE LIBS!!!!!! Perhaps NoWorries could
    be your LEADER. Lies, story telling!!! Are you not ashamed!!!!!
    Obviously you do not like the truth. You can cuss all you want,
    NoWorries has the same language. SHAME ON ALL OF YOU WHO THINK THIS SOLDIERS BEHAVIOUR IS RIGHT!!! Poor man, 3 little children all under 4, lol. Amazing how you can justify this, UNLESS YOU ARE NoWorries!!!!!! I do not need to make myself look big. Because I am not. A title, home or much money does NOT IMPRESS ME. DID YOU GET THAT NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! READ, READ AGAIN
    WHAT I SAID. There are many people who read this blog, and using filthy language young people do not need to read, in my
    opinion. You have a good evening, NoWorries, careful, your anger is showing again. I just scrolled up, and yes it is you,
    lol. Anger management????? Would help a lot. If you are big enough man to belittle people on other Blogs, and tell what a wonderful FRONTLINE Soldier you are, than you should be man enough, to take it, when the truth bites you in your behind.
    You can disagree with me, no problem, I have friends and we do
    disagree on a lot of things. BUT WE DO NOT PRETEND WE ARE SOMEONE ELSE ON A BLOG!!!!! This is what really hurts you, yes,
    NoWorries??????? You can have your Blog back, I just got a tip
    that there is a sweet note for me, lol. I could care less how big a persons home is, how much money they have in their account, did you not understand that???? And a TITLE does not make a decent Human Being. A honest Human Being. Nor does a lot of money, nor does a BIG HOME. And ALL THREE I HAVE NOT!!!!!!!!
    One more thing, I told you before, NoWorries, I am neither left nor right. May the best man/women win to become President.
    Good night, Sir. :)

  59. Little birdie called and told me Mrs. Harmison isn’t even a US citizen….. What say you Yunie? I say, “Hey Lore, how bout you shut your mouth cause we’re tired of hearing it!”

  60. I’m inclined to agree with you, Haha, there’s only so much I can enjoy from the spewing mouths of babbling idiots before I want to chuck a chair at them. However… I must address a few things before I tell Lore to take the stick out of her ass.

    But I do not believe YOU SpEAK FOR ALL EAGLES.

    When did I say this? When did I ever say that I spoke for the Eagles? You know who I speak for? The mother-fucking people that can’t get their voices out because you keep shouting over them.

    If I would judge you by your language, well I would say, you a not very nice

    Hun, you don’t even KNOW me. My friends at school, people I don’t know, my family tell me that I’m a generous person. I’m an honest person who truly cares for her friend, and I say this with pride. But to call me not nice because I’m not afraid of swear words? You know what my take on swear words are? They’re only as insulting as you make them believe. In reality, swear words really don’t have that bad of a meaning in our reality. People like you just freak out over them.

    Bastard = A child out of wedlock
    Bitch = A female dog in heat
    Fuck = Fornification/Procreation

    Consider that, my dear, before you start calling people out for ‘bad’ words.

    Who lies????? Is that why are you so angry?????? I think that is the real reason, why you use language like you do. You poor soul. Do not like to see the truth, blame it all on the LIBS, lol.

    Swear words, see above.

    Don’t pity me, don’t call me poor soul. Don’t give me your pathetic, false emotions. I’m proud of who I am and I don’t need someone pitying me because I am an individual.

    I’m not blaming everything on the Libs, dear, I’m blaming the idiots, whether conservative, liberal, or green, or none of the above. I’m speaking out to the idiots who use politics as a basis for their petty arguments, who refuse to see the other side. People like you who twist words to suit your meaning.

    In fact, when you get right down to it, I’m really neither liberal or conservative. You know what I am? I’m patriotic.

    You have a good evening, NoWorries, careful, your anger is showing again. I just scrolled up, and yes it is you

    Excuse me while I burst out laughing. Are you accusing me of being Jason? That is rather hilarious. Though I must say, it is an honor to be thought of as a soldier who has fought and defended this country. But alas, I am merely a seventeen-year-old girl sick and tired of the bullshit the adults spew and try to brainwash me with, trying to make me feel like a fool and horrible for my own beliefs.

    Well, forget that. I’m proud of who I am. I don’t go back on my judgement, unlike you, Lore, since you seem to be changing sides all over this place. I support the soldiers, I support the military, I support the local fashions, I support theatre, I support this country and everything in it, not just bits and pieces like you.

    So Lore, take that and stuff it down your piehole. And take that stick out of your ass.

  61. Dial it down a notch folks, or I will moderate comments.

    leo

  62. Psssttt..Crazy lady gone yet? Just checkin. Be back in a little bit. Till than. God Bless the Swortouts and their wonderful children.

  63. yes, everyone can know i am not an american citizen.
    That never kept me from working and paying taxes.
    So what is the point???????
    Perhaps that my writing is chopped up???? Well, at least what I put down is truth. What NoWorries put down are lies of a Bully.
    I am neither left nor right, do not like to be attacked by the Bully, and talk about feathers fluff up, lol. Just reread what
    NoWorries did write. PTSD?????? Wife briefed and briefed again?
    What a story teller!!!!!! You all be real proud of this Soldier.
    He is fighting hard, even if it is in his head!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Give him help and he also needs some anger management, not just
    the Sisters. What is with the dislike about Edinboro??? It takes a big man to stand infront of a man in a wheelchair and yell, if you f….g touch me, I have the right to defend myself.
    For Gods sake, walk away and be grateful that you can walk away.
    You all enjoy this summer, and for the ones who have to go back
    to Iraq, may God protect you and bring you back home safely.
    A GERMAN CITIZEN.

    Sounds to me like Ever spends way too much time debating “CNN FACTS’ at a college coffee shop. I am really impressed with your gramatically correct comments, I am happy that all that money you spent in college went to something. We have all learned a lesson from you; No matter how much money you spend, or how much you expand your use of the english language, you cannot buy common sense at a university. Good job trying though.

    Keep up with your mindless theories guys. I want you to know that I leave for this GREAT war for oil in a month. I will take a piece of you all with me rather you like it or not, because everyone that this INFANTRY SOLDIER gets in his sights, I will be thinking of you, and it will be your will that pulls that trigger.

    Truth is, the world doesn’t look at Bush or any other political leader as the criminal, they look at all Americans as the criminals. So everytime I squeeze my trigger, I hope you realize it is just as much your finger as it is mine. Talk about how much you hate the idea, but the fact is, WE ARE GOING TO HAVE A LOT OF FUN THIS NEXT YEAR.

    You are???? Having fun killing people???????
    There IS SOMETHING SERIOUSLY WRONG WITH YOU!!!
    And you claim credibility?????? Not you, you say???? Sue me!!!!!!

  65. Lore, why do you seem to have so much time on your hands? If you spent half as much time learning English as you do posting unintelligible dribble on the internet than the rest of us would be able to visit this site without needing an aspirin.

    And I hope Spc King does have fun killing the bad guys. Lots of them.

    Did you just speak to me about learning english???????? L O L

    You all have a great summer and may GOD KEEP OUR SOLDIERS SAFE.

  67. A thousand apologies, O wise and powerful master of grammar and foreign policy. I was distracted by the abundance of question marks in each of your posts. Is it English or German that employs that technique??????

  68. Reminds me of a situation here in Tucson AZ

    “Peace” thugs overturned a trash can on the grave of a soldier who was killed in Iraq.

    The dad is himself a veteran and has had it out for these people since the incident. He holds himself back.

    He knows who it was from statements made by that person.

    God help the peace thug if he is ever alone with this guy.

    Well looky here!!! Miss Andria is sporting some new tatoos. Brass knuckles on her hips. Just what I figured a “peace thug” would choose. Nice Myspace name too. Andriafacekillah Just has that peaceful ring to it doesn’t it? Your momma must be so proud….

    Leo I think you should make Andria the all-time poster child of the Peace Thugs website. Like the queen peace thug or something.

  70. to Liberalism is a Mental Disorder(aka The Family):
    Why are you so obsessed with this girl that you have to stalk her constantly, check up on her profile and attempt to (as you say) “publically discredit her”? If you feel she is so guilty, her actions will speak for her credibility. The fact that you are now going over the top and spending all of your time watching her activity, digging up ‘dirt’ to post about her, and violating her privacy is a most disgusting way to get across whatever point you were trying for. In fact, it only weakens whatever credibility you might have had to begin with, and makes YOU look like the losers. Seriously stop, it is unhealthy and borders on criminal.

  74. What a joke. The Swartout family obviously did everything they could to antagonize and disrupt an otherwise peaceful protest, including putting their hands on one of the girls first. Nice try, acting completely innocent after the fact. Why don’t you tell us how you harrassed and threatened a man in a wheelchair, or how you cowards sent your son over to harrass the protesters. You got your asses handed to you by two girls… girls that appear to be about half the size of Carrie Swartout. Bet it was a big surprise, when they fought back and beat the shit out of you!!!
