I thought liberals were supposed to have an open mind, even if they didn't agree with it. This is completely about respect. Open your mind. Just because you want a fight, doesn't mean there is one. ALL veterans are glad that they fight and die for your rights. We are offended that you CHOOSE to exercise your rights in a way that disrespects us. People who won't fight for our country should respect those that do and did, since we respect you enough to die for you.
This is a respect issue. Respect goes both ways. Does no one understand the meaning of respect and desecrate anymore? I was taught to respect things as a child, not necessarily agree with them. Respect your elders, even if it's in the form of a statue. Forget the fact that public nudity is illegal, committing lude acts (sex) in public is illegal. The public went crazy mad when an American Idol contestant took "racy" pictures of herself in front of a WWII memorial in 2007, and she wasn't even having sex. No one could see this outcry coming after that?
desecrate transitive verb meaning: 1. to violate the sanctity of. 2. to treat disrespectfully, irreverently, or outrageously. Ask the WWII vets what they think of Sex on the Hill. They will tell you differently.
One of the things that make America great is our ability to make choices. I have several rights that I CHOOSE not to use on a daily basis. Just because I have the right to do something doesn't mean I have to run right out and do it. There are many people that are holding back right now, I can guarantee that.
We should all feel sorry for lingup_the_grammar_robot. He obviously was never able to play sports as a child. If he had, he would know that, while you have every right to try to score every goal on your own, it is better for the team to swallow your pride and pass the ball to someone else and let them actually score a point. His team will always lose.
This country could easily become a great country again if people only put the country first, instead the United States of America is quickly becoming the Me First America. "I have this right, and I have that right. No one else matters but me." How sad. If that was the majority attitude in the 1770's we would be British right now.
Since these men and women don't have a voice, I've decided to list their names here, in the hope that we will all remember those brave men and women from KU who paid the ultimate price for the freedoms we so clearly enjoy today.
