The morons in the peace movement are at it again.
Authorities say there were a handful of arrests as protesters and counter-protesters gathered at a Northeast Philadelphia mall over the presence of an Army recruiting center that features combat-simulating games.
Dozens of protesters marched into Franklin Mills mall on Saturday to demand the shutdown of the Army Experience Center, a military pilot program. And dozens of counter-demonstrators, many of them Vietnam veterans, also filled the courtyard outside along with about 90 Philadelphia police officers.
The two groups shouted and pointed at each other, separated by a line of police.
Bill Deckhart, coordinator of the BuxMont Coalition for Peace Action, says he doesn’t want his tax money used to expose teens to violence. But Capt. Jared Auchey, a recruiter who works at the center, calls it the modern equivalent of the “Uncle Sam” posters—and he says the same types of games are available at a nearby mall arcade.
