They truly are anti-democratic.

NEW YORK — Groups planning to demonstrate against the upcoming Republican National Convention will have some unfriendly company outside Madison Square Garden.
Members of a new group of young GOP conservatives plan to protest the protesters.
Tom Paladino, who leads the New York chapter of Protest Warriors, a nationwide organization, said members want to show the protesters that “there are Republicans that will protest them right back.”
Added Jason Sager, a member from Brooklyn: “We are the right-wing freedom fighters. We are out there and are just as animated as the protesters can be.

Right-wing freedom fighters, indeed. Freedom from what? Democracy?
I guess it doesn't occur to them that they are protesting free speech and the right to peaceful assembly.
It's all kind of funny if you don't think about it as the demise of your country. It reminds me of a Vincent Bugliosi book about one of his trials in which things got heated between the defense and plaintiff's attorneys. After one especially escalated exchange over an objection, the opposing attorney screamed at him in exasperation: "What I'm objecting to, counselor, is you!"
La Belle wants those "freedom fighters" to get their butts down to the recruiting office. I'll second that.
....but hey, do what you want....you will anyway.
