Well...I wasn't gonna post this but..

I'll try to put it into somewhat of a perspective. True, they are crazy people who are clearly out of touch with reality. Where I take offense, is because I was friends with several of the Marines who came home in a flag draped casket. If you've seen someone you were good buddies with get blown apart by a mortar or suffocate by getting hit in the lung by a 7.62...or hell say if you saw your friend get killed by a drunk driver; and someone spouted off "Thank God your friend is dead!"

Would you not feel anything? Some of these guys were like brothers to me. But...I wouldn't expect anyone who hasn't lost anyone close to them to understand that. No offense intended..Im just saying that's why some of us get 'emotional' over shit like that.

To the best of my knowledge, this particular nasty strain of pogue hasn't been sighted anywhere near Fort Hood yet, but I will say this: mock my unit's dead to my face, and they'll have company in that grave. Nowhere in the rules does it say that someone gets to keep on enjoying life after spitting on someone else's sacrifice. It takes a lot of guts to say that God wanted someone dead when they're already dead; I'm more than happy to even up the debate field and the claimant can state their position and why to the intended directly.

the lady is just plain sick, like all of her followers, and she's absolutely not Christian. The "God" that she believes in is a completely different being than God, that Christians worship.

Any real Christian should remember that we are called not just to follow and serve, but most importantly to LOVE. Harboring hatred in your heart, and then acting spitefully out of anger and hatred, is a direct contradition of the great calling of all Christians: "Thou shalt love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the first and great commandment, and the second is like unto it: Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets."

also, this is a case of sweeping generalizations for the win. "You will not obey, blah blah more bitching and moaning." Right, so somehow she knows that I condone the homosexual lifestyle (which I don't, really, although simply being homosexual isn't wrong and I have several friends who are gay), that I support the war (which I don't, really, but I absolutely 100% appreciate the sacrifices of all that are involved. I just wish they hadn't been asked to make the sacrifice), etc. when she hasn't even met me. gotta love ignorance....

And I agree entirely with Matthias and Zeonfiend in saying, anyone who mocks anyone who was killed or injured in any war in my presence is asking for it. Few things will make me more pissed off. First off, it's disrespectful to the one who made the sacrifice. And second, it causes intentional pain to me, or others, who are friends or family or fellow soldiers, which is CRUEL.

I agree with what you guys are saying whole heartedly.

I was just wanting to point out the bikers in the video, I'm not for sure but I beleive that is a group of bikers that when they get word that there is going to be a protest near a soldiers funeral they show up and basicly run interferance for the family, keeping the protesters at a distance and keeping them from following the family or causing other problems. A similar group showed up near a funeral in my home town because of similar protests and helped keep the protesters at bay as they tried to follow the family to the grave side services.

a great group of people those bikers.
