  Happy Veterans Day! (America)

  people have varied and strong feelings about politics and wars, but you can't deny the courage a sacrifice of our veterans.

  too often they do not get the honor they deserve.

  in this country once they come home their sacrifice and heroism is too quickly forgotten.

  Public apology to all, especially to any who are remembering lost loved ones. Some of what I wrote is being misinterpreted but regardless, this was not the topic to attempt to make these points.

  I also did not know that pointing out a bit of hypocrisy made me an argumentative prick.

  Very good, if the problem is posting on the wrong topic, my apologies. You're saying that it would be acceptable on another topic? And if there were a tribute to good elders topic then disrespectful posts would not be acceptable on that topic?

  Maybe something like what was done to Native Americans? Or blacks in Africa? Or what happened to people in Russia, one of the Allies? Or the immunity granted by MacArthur to Unit 731?

  Your reactions are just like JWs who get uncomfortable when confronted with TTAT. By all means pretend those atrocities don't happen, at least not by the "good guys." IMHO removing those pictures which were printed by news outlets all over the world does not change the facts. The purpose of the military is to kill people no matter whether that is sanitized by using euphemisms like "service".

  Isn't that what this thread is celebrating? It is easier to celebrate without seeing "distasteful" images.

  The running girl from Vietnam was featured in about every news outlet you can imagine. How is that a violation of posting guidelines??? Life magazine had a whole issue full of worse pictures than I posted!
