We Support The Troops!
Let the people know that we support the troops!

Let the people we know that we despise the deaths of our troops.

Let the people know that we support truth and democracy and freedom!

Let the people know that we will oppose murder, and that we will defeat and hold accountable those that murder.

Let everyone who can read know that the American people hear their cries, we are here, and we will stop this madness.

Let everyone know that everyone who is guilty of crimes will pay for them. We will prevail and they will pay the price.

They will pay the price.

1. If you support the troops..
you don't sent them out to fight and die to make rich people richer..

If you support the troops, you care for them properly when they are injured physically and emotionally while doing their duty....

If you support the troops, you control their commander in cheif... that is one of the primary responsibilities of being an American Citizen.

IT IS OUR JOB

9. Agreed
But many of those "people" are also troops who willingly joined in this farce. Alot of them think it's a gravy train. They're making more money than alot of guys who have to hold down a real job in the real world, without all the taxpayer funded bennies, while they continue to terrorize a population and continue to expropriate it's oil wealth into the hands of BP and Exxon. Yawn. Big heroes. Bring em home. I'm sick to death of the whole support the troops thing. I don't support them and I don't support this war. If this were a war of necessity or even anything remotely resembling the protection of this nation I would not only support them with every fiber of my being I would probably join myself even at my age! But not this. Sorry, it aint happenin.

7. U huh
Edited on Wed Sep-28-05 02:44 AM by Gnostic
I am mainly referring to the ones who have voluntarily joined after the invasion of Iraq. They willingly joined in this farce. I have no sympathy for them. None whatsoever.

And supporting the troops means supporting the war, either way you slice, dice and propagandize it. So I'm not buying, sorry. When I say I don't support this farce I mean just that, in every single way. Perhaps I'm being too black and white on this but I see no other way to truly OPPOSE THIS WAR! Bring em home, period.
