I just can't let this go by.
I'd rather it not be mandatory as well. But I also can't help that I want to slap some of these ignorant fu*ckers upside the head. Freedom to be ignorant does not protect one from being chastised for it.
Really, the only one ignorant I see, is you. If someone doesn't want to support the continued glorification of institutionalized murder, then what gives you the "right" to "chastise" them? NVM, it was a rhetorical question, I already know the answer. The right was given to you by the death of brainwashed young men sent over seas to murder other brainwashed young men.
Never mind the soap and water, that kind of blood doesn't wash off so easily.
See I completely get where you're coming from and why, you know I do. You feel a strong connection to those whom we remember, and the reasons for which we should remember them. I have nothing but respect for that, I really do.
At the same time I'm coming at this from a position where I haven't provided said service to my country and I feel, very strongly, that we all need to collectively, at least for these few moments once a year, forget about our own selfish wants and take a damned moment. And if that means grabbing the ignorant little pissants by their ears and dragging them into it, then so be it. The same way one would to a petulant child who's not being respectful. As a Canadian I want them to be disrupted for one damned minute, and to look around at those who don't find it a disruption, perhaps they may even learn a little humility.
How nice of you, I'm assuming you don't see the irony AND hypocrisy in your comments.
I can do a lot to make them feel really, really bad about it.
And I'm only half joking.
because some 18 year old got blowed up over seas gave you that right.
It's a strong feeling. Hell, people can protest it, it doesn't bother me half as much, or at all really.
Bullshyte, you're going to add lying to the list I see. If it didn't bother you, you wouldn't be whining and threatening physical harm to those that don't think like you.
It's not really about forcing someone to show respect, it's more about not allowing their disrespect to interfere with my own need to show it.
and to do that you seem to need to force people out of work, do physical harm to them, and make them think like you do.
and the solution is simple, you close the malls
Of course, because it's all about the freedom.
(I hear you, Sal)
