Army of One: ‘Soldier’ billboard that CBS nixed finds new home

I'm sorry, but is this what anti-war protest has come to? A bunch of artists making artistic, non-messy anti-war statements that they then go pay to put up on Corporate Amerika billboards. Its no wonder the U.S. is in the tank.
Whatever happened to rock-throwing, flag-burning, storm-trooping, jack-booted, tear-gassing, billy-clubbing, ass-kicking, building-burning, shit-kicking protest. Now, we have artists depicting the military as some sort of drones-filled fantasy land instead of the French Foreign legion it really is, following illegal orders from a moron of a president and a snake-handling VP. With this artistic type of activism, John McCain is a shoe-in.

Since the media won’t show flag draped coffins and report on the fact that there is a war that our country is involved in, artists and other activists get their messages out to the public any way they can. Besides, there is plenty of the “rock-throwing, flag-burning, storm-trooping, jack-booted, tear-gassing, billy-clubbing, ass-kicking, building-burning, shit-kicking protest” going on, it’s just being done by the police and hired guns at protests like the affair at the recent RNC. Okay, maybe not the rock throwing or flag burning, but there was certainly the rest, all orchestrated by the government and implemented by storm troopers in riot gear. Let the people see the image of a dead person who was killed in the war zone. Expose the public and remind them that this is going on and happening in real life and affecting millions of ordinary people worldwide. Let them see the reality and not Paris, Britany or the Runaway Bride. Until the public is informed and then they, in turn, pay attention, you’ll keep getting what you’re paying for, that is, a bunch of pablum designed mask the truth.
