Talk:March 17, 2007 anti-war protest/Comments
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sure , I would be glad to tell you why we were there.
We were there to show America and the rest of the world that we here at home aren't all afraid of standing up for what is right. We didn't start this war. But we do need to finish it. And preferably , finish where the terrorists live. Not here on American soil. We are openly showing our support for this mission to all military members and their families. To let them know that not all of America is whining and cringing in the face of these threats to our country and our way of life.
In the face of terror and murder the call for peace isn not patriotic, it's cowardice.
We are the only superpower on this earth at this point in time. As a comic writer once said,"With great power comes great responsibility." We have that power and , like it or not, we are responsible to stand up for what is right. Anywhere in the world. It's the difference between doing the right thing and the wrong thing. That's all it comes down to.
Apparently the anti-war movement thinks that a dictator is right to kill thousands of his people.That it is right for a government to allow women to be treated as property, with no rights at all other than to produce the next generation of jihadists.To spend their people here to kill thousands of inncent Americans. It goes on and on and on.
We are just tired of all the drama that the whining, crying, appeasing members of the anti-war movement are loudly spewing in all of our names. You do not speak for me. I can speak for myself. And hopefully this gets your attention and makes you realize you will no longer corner the market out there on the street corners, on the mall, in the news. We are tired of your lies and propaganda and your phony polls.Do you really think that we are pro war? Many that you saw on the 17th have been to war.Not just sat at home and watched it on the tv or movie screen. None of us are pro war. But neither are we pacificsts allowing anyone who wants to walk all over us.
It's time that we take to the streets and show you whose streets they are. They were never yours, you just didn't know it. But March 17th we reminded you.
