A question about the Crawford counter-protesters |
|
I printed out "Cindy's Victory" by Will Pitt so my mother could read it and she asked me why the counter-protesters were chanting, "We don't care."
What is it that they don't care about... Casey Sheehan's death? Cindy's feelings? The anti-war sentiment? All of the above?
I didn't give it a thought until Mom asked me ... but WTF does "We don't care" mean? :shrug:

"We have our heads firmly buried in the sand and any attempts to make us aware of what's going on will only make us irrationally angry."
I can understand WHY people react this way but it doesn't make it any less infuriating.

that it might be based on - somewhat focused on political correctness and not caring about the prison abuse etc. just the usual far right generalizations

4. The coverage I read said they chanted it as the Camp Crawford folks |
|
were singing "God Bless America."
So, who knows?

5. I think it's "We don't care whether the pres. speaks to you."... |
|
Well, duhhhh, they've already demonstrated that they don't care that he lied either.

6. isn't a Counter-PROtester really an antitester? |
|
We don't care. No wonder their sons and daughters aren't enlisting.
