You mean nobody here has ever mocked the parents of a soldier that died in Iraq who actively disagreed with the war?
Please don’t go there.
People need to accept that there are people who both disagree and agree with the premise of the war and move on to figuring out how to care for all these returning veterans who are currently not getting the care or treatment they deserve.
That is what is ultimately important here. I know a lot of Iraqi veterans who think that in general, the reasoning for the war was BS, are they traitor’s too? Are they wrong?
I was on the ground for 14 months, I was honorably discharged, are you going to attack me now too?
Is that what this place has become, not even a far-right but a Republican-right version of Democratic Underground where we must all act like robots in thought and opinion lest we best ostracized for having a difference in view?
If you don't have a problem with Kokesh mocking the Gold Star Mothers, I call BS on your entire storyline and image you are trying to portray. No soldier hears stories like that and doesn't want to punch his fist through a wall- I know after being reminded about that incident I am ready to. How do we know you aren't as phony as half the stolen honor soldiers(sic) that IVAW parades out?
If you see a group of your fallen brother's mothers being mocked, and you don't get outraged, and worse, you stand with those mocking them thinking they will do more for you, then there is no way you are legit- period. Anyone can claim to be anything on the internet.
You argue like a liberal.
I'm sending you to the cornfield!
