Re: Why protest? Why not join in?

wheelslip,
First; "But, just because the "moron" called anyone that disagreed with a terrorist, doesn't give you the right to."
I believe your syntax is a little off in this sentence. Your meaning is skewed to the point of unintelligibility. Could you please rephrase your comment?
Secondly; "When you call a vet a terrorist or a traitor, be standing in the same room with him... Within arms length."
Why would I call _ANY_ US military vet a traitor or terrorist? I _AM_ a vet. I spent 20+ years of my life prepared to fight to the death for the United States of America. And if any man (or woman)wants to suggest that I am a traitor or a terrorist, I hope that he IS within arms length so that I may shake his hand and congratulate him for his willingness to lay claim to the freedom I've spent those years protecting his right to have. I won't respond violently unless I am presented with the need to do so (in which case I remain 'at-the-ready').
