This is from my hometown, which is pretty much chock full of radical leftists and leftist Dems... :crazy:
GREENFIELD -- A West Springfield man will stand Saturday mornings for the next year across the street from the Greenfield peace vigil, offering another point of view to passersby.
The Board of License Commissioners granted Richard Sorcinelli a one-year license to stand along the north side of Main Street between Federal and School streets. He is allowed to have signs, but must stay out of the path of pedestrian traffic.
Earlier this month, the man showed up across the street from the peace vigil with signs that read, ''Deluded Misguided Peace Protestors Won't Keep Us Safe'' and ''Save the World, Kill More Terrorists.''
''I think it's fair to have another side represented along Main Street,'' Sorcinelli told the three board members. ''I know I don't live here, but neither do many of the people on the other side of the street.''

Yay for free speech, but at the same time... :eyes:
