For those that died just so you can have that say.
    Well said.

And I will agree that it is their right, problem is that the majority of them are bashing and speaking ill of the very people who died to give them that right. Same as MMC said, this disgusts me to no end.

    Even if they do not agree with a view, they should at least be thankful for the people who sacrificed it all in a gallant effort to provide them the choice to be a communist in this country.

    Well to be honest.....I am not against all liberals, Democrats, and or conservatives. Even tho I was raised up around them my entire life and have thorough knowledge of Democractic workings and strategy all from the Chicago Machine. I note the difference in those who have served and gone into combat. These libs and Demos know exactly the Cost of the Price paid. They do not act or talk like some of the fools we have around here. So respects from these types are not even a concern.

    As far as Free Speech is concerned. Truthfully I think that law is overhyped. As anyone can say whatever out of their mouth. IMO I think most believe they have this right. But in truth.....they do not. As evidenced by those in the street module. Which do make up for more than 1/4 of the American Population.

    I have never been involved around those that burn American Flags. Not much of that goes around by me. Those that do this, talk $#@! about those who sacrificed all so people could have their liberties. Put us down. Now these our the ones I take issue with. As they believe for some reason they are entitled to say whatever they want out of their mouths. Without thinking of that thought.....as to what the consequenses are for them doing such.

    Cheers to all our vets. Bottom line: it takes guts to sign up for a job that can get you killed or maimed.

    Good comments, and I commend all my Vet comrades and all those presently serving.

    I served from 1966 to 1968. I got one of those letters that started with, "Greetings, you are hereby ordered-----."
