.......... & you forgot to ask for the "Grey Poupon" mustuard.How much more snobbish can you get ???
Maybe you would prefer the sound of the T bus exploding as your riding it to North Station.
That is the types of sounds you hear in places without a Military protecting your undeserving *** .
It was the only thing I hated about my years in the Service. People who did not earn it got freedom of my back and my brothers blood.
The Herald is a bunch of wankers editing the author's name out of this harassment of our Military Men and Women.
If the Mayor had a pair like Curley the sidewalks out there would be ripped up all winter.

wow...im usually disgusted by the liberals and theyre "holier than thou" antics...but this is over the top. im wondering if they can even tell me the age of the Constitution??? and how long its been there...im guessing it was there LONG before they were...since they thought it would be so "cool and trendy" to live in a former navy yard where otherwise they would never step foot on if it wasnt overpriced million dollar condos...get over yourself, do us all a favor and kill yourself!!
i think i speak for more than the majority of the public when i say i wish the Constitution would load live rounds and fire them into the overpriced condos filled with obvious un-American a@@holes living there...
Sorry, but the post that was in this spot has been removed as it did not follow our guidelines.

Why does hopenchangelol assume that these self-indulgent yuppies are liberal? Given the level of income or trust fund needed to afford to live at the Navy Yard and their attitude that the rest of the world exists to indulge them, it is much more plausible to assume that they vote Republican, especially given their evident lack of respect for the brave men and women who defend our country now and who had worked and lived in the Navy Yard for some 200 years.
Morning and evening salutes have been a tradition in our Navy (and in many other navies) for centuries. Possibly when they moved in, these people thought that they were a quaint amenity offered to amuse trendy residents and that the officers and crew of one of the world\'s oldest commissioned active-duty warships are really basically just cast members. But they\'re wrong. And I\'m sorry (for them) that they think that the Star Spangled Banner is too loud.
They knew, or should have known, what they were buying into when they bought into it, and certainly no one is forcing them to stay, especially since they have no respect for the significance of their surroundings.
The sound of the morning and evening salute and the sound of our National Anthem are the sounds of the brave men and women, volunteers all, who are prepared to sacrifice all for our great nation, as far too many have. If these people don\'t appreciate that, as they obviously don\'t, then they haven\'t been brought up right, and it obviously shows.
PS. My own politics are between Barney Frank and Bernie Sanders.

Hey, you guys bought those condos, you knew about the Constitution and now that you live there you want others to accommodate you! You must be related to those folks in Hingham who bought houses next to railroad tracks and then when the trains became active demanded they stop because of the noise. I saw shoot off the canon every hour and drive these folks back to Newton and Wellesley.
Liberal moonbats who would use rubber bullets to fight terrorist tooo ..take a trip to the country and list to the cows fart then complain to.
what balls! writing letters to complain is your right as an AMERICAN! That right was given to you by the men that served on that very ship, and is continued by the men and women wearing the uniform, putting themselves in harms way for YOU, you ungrateful pigs! We are the "Land of the free" because of the brave, now say thank you, and why not try ENJOYING the sound of the cannon and anthem. It should remind you how lucky you are to be able to sit there and enjoy your freedoms!
