Any Fort Bragg soldiers out there?
Please clue us in...

Were there orders to be quiet, or was it a silent protest?

10. Hold on...
It's not their fault when they get sent into bull like Iraq. Or Vietnam or any place like that.

People join up to serve their country. If lunatics hijack the government, they still have to go where they're sent and hope to come home, or be court martialed (sp).

You get a group like these guys, trained to take care of the dirty work, they could definitely come home all FU in the head.

Explosions and carnage and babies screaming for their mothers and friends dying next to you....

Stressed out, and back home to the mundane business of picking up milk in a clean well-lit grocery store. Pretty soon, :nuke: they lose it.

My 2 cents, for what it's worth. :)

15. I'm was not talking about the soldiers!

I was talking about the Bush Thugs.

I totally understand what a horror story this illegal War was for our soldiers.

13. From what Ive heard, they were instructed to remain silent...
though this I heard on the MSM, so you can take it with as many grains of salt as you wish.

14. When the captive audience makes noise, it's hard to hear
Karen Hughes over the wire, and the Chimp gets all huffy.
