it beggars belief that we as a nation would bend over backwards to make scum like that feel they have the right to protest against the forces that serve us. the ironic thing is the troops are overeseas helping the muslim populations, i never forget being in bosnia in 94' in a town called gorazde fighting the serbs who had surrounded the place and wanted to wipe out the muslims. we were fighting and dying to protect them and when i asked what they thought about it they told me we were there only for the secret oil reserves, it made me laugh then and it still does now but you have to think "why bother"

Sorry, but when I see sh*t like that it brings out the anger in me. Just makes me feel and think, F*ck 'em, send them back there if they love it so much. Even if they are born here, if they hate this place so much and the people and our ways, then go back there!
Put them in a herc, give them a parachute and push them out the door as you fly over the place. "See ya later mate, nice knowing ya".
Enough of this lovey dovey sh*t, and the civil libertarians can go and get stuffed, our troops are fighting and dying overseas.

My rant is done.
Ryan

If they sprayed them down with bacon grease instead of tear gas..they wouldn't be around long..
Enough is enough..deport them..

Very sympathetic reporting. Sincere expressions of emotion all around; little boys, young soldiers, old men and self-serving ar$eholes. The events of the day made the papers, and whose opinion is right was left up to the reader. My attitude whenever I see their form of free speech is, 'You're welcome.'

In my lifetime, Remembrance Day has gone from a dawdling obligatory shambles that sort of resembled a military march, to a hugely popular public expression of emotion and respect. In the ten yrs I've been posted here, I've marched on the National War Memorial parade three or four times. This year I was the Guard WO for a 50-man (and woman) Army guard. Many of the guys hadn't done that parade before so I stepped them through the sequence of turns and eyes-rights. I also told them we were there as supporting cast (never mind there was probably 3 or 4 decades of overseas service amongst the men). One guy said afterwards it was the best parade he'd ever done. Just as it should be.
