The people protesting war is outrageous not to mention it is a waste of time. The veterans that have seen the “s*** hit the fan” haven’t done it so that these hippies can stand on the corner with their dim-witted signs protesting the war. In Vietnam these men were sent to fight and they did, 58,148 of them gave their lives. Then the government found out it was a waste of time and money and pulled them out. This was a very selfish and disrespectful thing to do.

It is not right what military personnel put up with all these sign carrying protesters it’s outrageous the military personnel have earned our respect; The military personnel have to fight to survive they put up with too much crap to be disrespected like this. There is a moral obligation to support our fighting forces. It is our right to help them survive. The military can’t do it by themselves .
