[QUOTE=JetsFan24;2758867]I would fight to the death if I thought the right to sit in the comfort of my home was being threatened, but it hasn't. The danger in your mindset is that there can never be an unjust war because to call into question the justification for war is to call into question the troops. So I'm not going to be bullied into lying about these wars to make everyone feel rosey. War is a waste and every soldier's life that was lost in a war since WWII was wasted. If that offends you I apologize, but I'd rather offend you than play along with the politicians who exploit the respect people have towards the intentions of the troops.[/QUOTE]

That was pretty well said. I only disagree with you that every life lost in a war after WW2 was a waste. After 9/11, it was absolutely necessary for us to go into the Middle East. That said, i think we've been there too long and we need to pull out most of our troops. There should have been a plan in place to make it happen. I'm not gonna comment on Vietnam because i wasnt around when it was going on.

I have zero problem with people not respecting the anthem so long as they have respect for our troops. When someone says "F*&% the Anthem" or something like that, i'm sure the last thing on their mind is hating the troops

And apparently the decision to run 3 times with Goal to go was heavily influenced by bill Callahan.

[QUOTE=Aten;2758900]Implicitly conditioned on his never actually exercising said right, of course.[/QUOTE]

He's exercising the crap out of it as far as I can see, and if he wanted he could go right to ground zero with all the other weirdos and talk the same crap with an army of cops to protect him.

My disagreement is not muzzling, its merely disagreement.

Get over yourself.

[QUOTE=JetsFan24;2758892]I wonder why that is.



[/QUOTE]

Yeah, because of the imperialistic U.S.?

Right.

These Neanderthals and their barbaric twisting of the Muslim religion pre-date the existence of the U.S.

Read a book.

Amazing that it took them until 1994 to start attacking us then. Maybe you should read a few yourself.

ahh..sorry, I just read this whole thread so I am commenting on a lot of things, and the quote I snipped from your post was just a good place to start for me, not exactly a direct post to you..sorry

some guy at the top of the thread tried dragging in that tired footage of Obama with his hands folded below his waist as a slight against the country.

My only point is people like to talk about how much has been sacrificed for our freedoms, but then bristle when people use that freedom in a way that offends.

People didn't die to protect polite speech, they died to protect offensive and impolite speech, they died to protect unpopular thoughts, they died to protect the worst of free speech, not the best of it.

Interesting to see which side has consistently resorted to insults here. Pretty much sums up the level of intelligence we're dealing with.
