And btw, I have no issue with your views or you posting them, that whole freedom of speech thing is a double edged sword at times.

Hey man and I'm the first one to honor the soldiers who did die for us to really have those freedoms. That kind of sacrifice isn't lost on me - each and every one of those men and women was a hero to me. The idea that these guys went there knowing that they could die but doing it anyways because they knew what they were fighting for was right gives me goosebumps. I ask myself if I could do it and I really don't know and I hope I never have to know. I'm thankful for that freedom each and every day from when I get up to when I go to bed. I couldn't possibly think of living somewhere where my ideas/thoughts/comments were suppressed; it would be horrible.
But that doesn't mean that the respect I give to those guys is automatically given to any soldier. Because the ones out there right now are fighting for nothing, no one knows what they are fighting for, anyone who says it's because of 9/11 is an idiot because who they are fighting now has nothing to do with that. The WMD thing was a farce. These guys are literally there right now murdering people, killing families, little kids, teachers, moms, dads, grandmas. These aren't lemmings or rats, they are people. Imagine the fear you would have if you thought any day you walked outside out of nowhere bullets would rain down and kill you. That's why I am so outspoken against what they are doing now. And the soldier of today knows fully well whats happening, it is 2011 (almost) and information is not hard to come by.
