Can anyone answer this question?? I have noticed that if an American does not like the views expressed by another American (in this case usually a response by a Bush/administration admirer vs. a war protestor), a reply I often hear is "If you don't like it, move" or something along those lines. Aren't you all American? Why should a proestor have to leave their own country for sticking up for what they believe in? And where are they supposed to go??? How does that makes sense?

I thank God for not only her safe return but for her obvious warness of Him and the thousands of souls that were with her in heart. These people who did this to her and killed an inocent man are wrong and need to be brought to justice, but if Jill can still feel good towards them after all this than she is amazing and I am ever more impressed.
