I just reported myself to the moderators, so perhaps they will remove the pictures. Here is what I wrote, so you know where I am coming from:


"I am reporting myself, as people on these boards seem to think this is a bad idea. I have explained where I am coming from - that we should salute them, this should strengthen our resolve, and we should not forget we are at war with evil.

If you feel I have made a mistake in posting these pictures on the forum, please remove them.

I mean no disrespect to these men. They died for me. I want them to be remembered as heroes who paid the ultimate price for my freedom."

I don't normally reply during business hours but this story has bothered me deeply. By responding, I could be flaging this site to become restricted by the web-police at my company (as a web forum - not a business use of internet services).

Over the weekend, the grapevine here in Southern Indiana was alive with word that one of our local National Guard was killed in the Iraqi theatre in an event associated with a wreck of their vehicle. I wouldn't know if these troops are of our local boys or not. The picture are posted with out referance to what batalion they are part of.

I did not know him personally, but I do know that he was 28, a father of three small children. I could only imagine what his wife may be thinking upon seeing these pictures.

While it is important to stir up the national rage, a little more dilligence and patience would give more respect to the dead and their families.
