Anyone have a time machine I can use? I want to go back in time to when the younger generation respected their elders & one could punch somebody in the mouth for disrespecting a vet,not to mention a wounded one & nobody would bat an eyelash. Hell they might even give you a pat on the back & buy you a beer after they get done helping you knock their teeth out. It's times like this when I wish they would bring back the draft. Maybe then they would show more appreciation toward a vet who was shot 11 times defending their right to be punk ass pussies.
I'd like to know how you arrived at the idea that this veteran, wounded in Iraq, was defending the right of those protesters to be "punk ass pussies." Please explain.
You say you want to go back in time. How about back to the sixties and the Vietnam protests. Do you believe the American sons and brothers who were needlessly killed and maimed in Vietnam were defending the protesters' right to be "punk ass pussies?" If so, please explain.
I submit that if you wish to go back to a time when our troops were
legitimately deployed in the defense of America and Americans you need to go back to the 1940s.
What I'm getting at is the Iraq invasion and occupation came about as the result of calculated criminal deception. It was wholly unnecessary military aggression and a violation of International Law. It was (is) a war crime and has absolutely nothing to do with defending America or American interests. In fact it has caused irreparable harm to our Nation, both materially and in terms of our reputation and status in the world community.
