"Astonishingly Disturbing" - Endless War Across the Globe

[Jim Hackett II]

Memorial Day weekend. Makes me ill. Here's to all the idiots who "faught the good fight".

Dawn

What are you saying?Please,do not call those who have fought and died idiots!These people could have been your father,uncle,or good friends.And,If that was the case,I would guarranty,you would not be calling them idiots,you would be laying flowers at their grave today.....

Peace Out..

Stopping Fascism was the right g*d damned thing to do.
Some of America's better people threw their own lives in the bet as the ante to fight that mess.
If not your male fore-fathers, then mine.

Or the Mothers and wives and Fathers and brothers of those men working to build the weapons to defeat Hitler and Hirohito in the hands of their family members in UNIFORM.
They paid a huge price too all the while worried and praying daily for the safety of their family members and friends.
Gold Star Mothers used to mean something.
They still do to me.
Their sons didn't come home.

I'll not be part of dishonoring Memorial Day in any fashion.
I'll be decorating a few graves of vets that I knew tomorrow.
Decoration Day is the original name if anyone bothers to recall.

I'll hold my silence and remove my ever present baseball cap when "Taps" is played tomorrow.

Then I'll celebrate my freedom protected and preserved by others by cooking some burgers and drink a couple of Guinness while I listen to the Indy 500.....
and remember what the day is about.
To Remember....
