I just wanted to ask any of you guys who are anti-Iraq war, not to protest when our troops come home. Imagine how they would feel, they see their best friends get wounded or killedor they themselves get wounded, and then they come home and see you guys protesting the war. I mean they come home and see people protesting that their friends died and this is the respect they get for dying for their country. So please just dont protest when they come home.
You’re to young to remember the Vietnam War D-Dayomaha, but that was what happened when the G.I.'s came home. A very ungreatful nation for all the sacrifice and suffering those poor guys went through. I concur with you.
Yeah seriously, thats what my parents tell me about it, and if you’ve seen We Were Soldiers you remember the scene at the end with the vet in the wheelchair, in the airport, nobody even pays attention to him.
Also they probably already have a little bit of survivors guilt I think that it would just make it worse
Thanks for agreeing with me.
Yeah, that was a good movie. None of them should feel any guilt, they did the job that was asked of them and they made it home.
I heartily second that!

Amen, brother. Amen.
If you want to protest, protest on election day. Your vote is your say. The troops did what they were there to do, it is the president who bears ultimate responsibility for this. Enough said. Bill
Please take discussions like this to the forum where it belongs, Off Topic Discussions. This is a hobby forum and it’s not appropriate to talk politics here, where people drop in to read about models.
Sorry Larry its just that I’ve found not many of you guys go over there
I agree to THAT. This is forum has sections for just such a thing. Use them. Also, when you say you don’t fine many users here on the General forum, you’re wrong. Most of the high-post users frequent the general discussion forums often. Just because no one replies to your thread, doesn’t mean no one’s looking at it. Please keep the posts where they belong. This forum is a very good place to be, so let’s keep it spam-free.
