First off...I don't know why I'm bothering to post this thread. Not like very many people come here and post or read my threads any how. But, this is really irritating me and needs to be vented and I'm venting here as well.
I don't care what organization or group a person's from but, when they start showing up at a befallen soldier's funeral to protest their garbage and what they think is they're own belief, that's going to far! The families are going through enough at this time and don't need added stress. The story behind these protests is that some groups/organizations believe GOD's killing the soldiers due to something about their perfence of sexuality. Or something like that. For one thing, it's not GOD who's sending our troops over there, it's our President Bush who is. Why we're still over there, who the heck knows. But, come on! A law is being passed to keep protester's at least 500 feet/yards away from funerals. Myself, I don't think it's far enough. Try at least a 1000. One of these family members are going to be so destraught, that they'll end up going off on one of these protesters and that's going to spark up a whole new war right here in our back yard. If you're a protester, I say stay the heck away from those funerals and give the families and that soldier some respect.
