Logic Anyone?

Comment comment by gnifyus on 15 November 2007

I'm trying to understand the logic. At first after a sort of 'not-paying-attentiony' reading I was ready to go into a tiny tirade about the activists keeping much needed supplies from our soldiers who are always in need of anything no matter what anyone thinks of the war.

Then I reread:

demonstrators blockaded the Port of Olympia and halted military trucks carrying equipment from Iraq bound for Fort Lewis.

What possible good (besides publicity I suppose) does it do to block things coming from Iraq?

One: I messed up the news post, as it should have read as you pointed out "coming from Iraq and Afghanistan."

Two: The equipment coming back, one presumes, is stuff that needs to be repaired, maintained, etc. By attempting to block stuff coming back, they are in-a-roundabout-half-assed way screwing up the supplies that will eventually go back, I think. Either way, at what point isn't this sedition?
