I know some of you are wondering why you are being bumped to a thread that has nothing to do with your geographic area, please let me explain and understand this not going to become a habit.

Some people have made it known that they don’t believe rallies for our troops are appropriate during this Christian holy weekend I respect their believe and the faith we share. Others have stated that the rallies should not continue because the public is loosing interest. I do not agree with this statement and believe it is precisely that the public is loosing interest that we need to keep arranging events that support our Military Servicemen.

Only three days after the liberation of Baghdad I attended a weekly rally and witnessed the decline of interest by 50%. If anyone believes this is acceptable they are wrong. The veterans I spoke with noticed this decline and it was not possible for me to accept their disappointment and sorrow.

This is why we decided an event as you see promoted on this thread might be another approach to keeping our brave Servicemen in the spotlight, while they are still in harms way. The issues you see in the announcement are the primary strengths that secure our Nation without standing armies mingling in our civilian populations.

Reintroducing the United States Constitution to the general population would not be necessary if we hadn’t failed to defend our education of young people about American History from the attacks to discredit this subject by the socialist who have infiltrated the National Educators Association.

Americans become easily complacent and we have to constantly change our tactics with positive events in recognition of this. We should relentlessly promote the United States Constitution as it is the best and some may say the only weapon the civilian population has to defend its self from socialism, government largess and encroachment into our private lives.

Please excuse my indiscretion of bumping you to this thread unsolicited, I will not do it again. I thought it necessary for a few reasons…

To keep a promise I made to the veterans I have been speaking with.

To remind us of the dangers in complacency

To remind us attacks by socialism, prey on American indifference unceasingly.

And ask us all to support one another no matter what distance may separate us.

Thank you for your patience with me and I hope you all feel as I do these are important points to address.

Sincerely Matthew
