I live in the United States of America. Soldiers fight for me everyday to live in a country where I can do whatever I feel like doing, and even write my opinion freely in this blog. Looking at other countries I feel we are all very lucky to have this privilidge. So, I don't understand why so many people feel that veterans are just old people, the national anthem is a last minute chance to get your texts out before the game, and patriotic parades are just annual events that block the roads. People hate our government and are completely detached from any sense of nationalism, because it isn't part of thier agenda or doesn't really effect thier daily life.
I believe the protests at the funeral of fallen soldiers are illegal. What would compell you to go to a funeral and yell at how their life was wrong? About how the way they died was not worth it? How dare they even have the kahones to show up and even think it would make a bit of difference. I think they should go to jail.
I agree.
ReplyDeleteThey have got to be the leat Patriotic people out there. They apparently can't hold their views privately but must disgrace the rememberence of those who gave their lives defending the right they have to freedom of speech. It's disgusting. They deserve to have pro-war protesters come to their funeral- rude but true
