The Dark Lord
I have not been a regular in the bars in decades. I do however do what I can when I read about or hear a lying bastard attempting to steal from those that served and sacrificed so much for this nation. Have even confronted a few in my time.
To each their own, I suppose.
Personally, I don't see the point. Someone who lies about stuff like that is basically I person I wouldn't want to associate with anyway. I don't see the point in confronting them, unless it makes you feel good or better about yourself.
People lie. Sad but true.
I don't see the point of it, either. But the lies we're discussing aren't just ordinary lies. Redbone puts it well in the comment, 'They are stealing from the sacrifice of those that served and did their duty.'
Can you, or can anyone, refute the truth of that ? I really think not. It therefore surely follows that the only really decent, honourable response IS one of confrontation.
I suggest that less than this dishonours all who've fought and died for their country.
The only people they're dishonoring with their lies are themsleves.
Their lies do not take away from the heroism and accomplsihments of Soldiers on the battlefields.
