Very interesting read and good suggestions. Send our soldiers cookies, gifts and warmest wishes to come home quickly and safely, not news images of angry mobs of protestors.

Re: Protesting from an old soldier's POV
People should do this regardless of their opinions. If you are againt the war: protest to Bush, not to the soldiers. The soldiers are just doing their job.Trytostaydead wrote: Very interesting read and good suggestions.

Like I said before, I am a product of the Vietnam era. I realize that soldiers are folks like my Stepdad & my Grandpas. I have nothing against seeing Saddam removed from power. I have something against what Bush & congress have done to my rights as a Citizen & a worker.
