Wear Red On Fridays

I received the following email this morning from a dear family member.

______________________________________________________

Hello Everyone,


Thank you for opening this one upMay we all have the brave heart to wear RED on every Friday from here on. I am going to try my hardest to. Nowto go out and buy some more Red Shirts!!!!

You will soon see a lot of people wearing Red on Fridays. Here'swhy .....

The Americans who support our troops, are the silent majority.We are not "organized" to reflect who we are, or to reflect whatour opinions are.

Many Americans, like yourself, would like to start a grassrootsmovement using the membership of the Special OperationsAssociation, and Special Forces Associations, and all theirfriends, simply, to recognize that Americans support our troops. Weneed to inform the local VFW's and American Legion, our localpress, local TV, and continue carrying the message to the nationallevels as we start to get this going. Our idea of showing oursolidarity and support for our troops are -starting Friday, andcontinuing on each and every Friday, until this is over, that everyred - blooded American who supports our young men and women, WEARSOMETHING RED.

Word of mouth, press, TV -- let's see if we can make the UnitedStates, on any given Friday, a sea of red much like a home footballgame at a University.

If everyone of our memberships share this with otheracquaintances, fellow workers, friends, and neighbors, I guaranteethat it will not be long before the USA will be covered in RED -and make our troops know there are many people thinking of theirwell-being. You will feel better all day Friday when you wear Red!

Let's get the word out and lead by example; wear RED on Fridays.I sent this out to everyone on my email list; hopefully, youwill too.

Please forward this to everyone you know!!

Wear Red on Fridays ....

SUPPORT OUR TROOPS, WE LIVE IN THE LAND OF THE FREE, BECAUSE OFTHE BRAVE. FOR US, THEIR BLOOD RUNS RED!! GOD BLESS AMERICA

I support the troops and their humanity, however I do not support their current cause, and will only wholeheartedly support them once they begin defending our boarders and stop preemptive strikes on nations "That might attack the US". Our soldiers volunteered to join the military knowing full well that they could end up fighting wars for corrupt politicians; who need others to do their dirty work. By doing so, they support the corrupt. As citizens supporting the troops in their preemptive battles, they support the corrupt politicians. So when someone does attack the US because "They are all evil and deserve to pay the price of death" then those who the US perceives as evil are exactly right. How would you feel if lets say China showed up on our beaches guns a blazing touting that they are going to overthrow our corrupt leaders and instill a better government?

I have friends in the military, I would be very upset if they died in combat fighting a pointless political battle. At the same time, they knew full well what they signed up for. They've calculated the risk, and determined that staying in the military was the best thing for them to do for themselves and their families.

If someone were to invade the US soil, I would gladly join the fight not only by supporting those who are fighting with nonsense like wearing Red shirts on Fridays, driving with my headlights on, or buying a useless magnetic sticker for my vehicle. I would support them with my own Rifle, my own ammunition and with my own blood.

Our nation's foreign policy has gone from a nation accepting the ideas of foreign nations to a nation living in fear because they've let their politicians create the fear by constantly keeping the nation in battles with other nations.

I however, refuse to support a nation who thinks that killing people because they might kill us is the right thing to do. That's like saying that a city has the right to ticket everyone that is a citizen because they might get in their car and speed. Or that a state can arbitrarily put people on death row because they might go out and murder someone.

If you think living in the United States is living in freedom, you are badly mistaken. We may be the best country to live when it comes the freedoms we do have, but we are not free people. We are bound by a socialist society who thinks that they should get something for free simply because someone else is richer than they are. We are bound by a government who illegally forces taxes and social programs onto it citizens by forcing them to wave their right to not be taxed. We are bound by contradicting laws that most people do not know even exist. We are bound by an apathetic public who doesn't realize that they can fix the entire nation with just a couple elections if only they woke up and paid attention to what is happening around them. People are sheep, a bunch of frogs in hot water.

More an more people are beginning to wake up and smell the coffee. It takes time to wake a nation who's been sleeping since before the Cival War. Hopefully there will be a change in the nation, and hopefully it wont get ugly.

A thought to ponder

I recently had a chance to walk the Vietnam Memorial Wall in D.C. The experience brought tears to my eyes as I spoke to these fallen soldiers. I felt guilty for living, knowing that they died fighting over an issue that wasn't even theirs. I apologized on behalf of my nation, for continuing to place them in harms way and I apologized on behalf of the nation's public, for treating their surviving comrades like crap once they returned home.

They were fighting to maintain freedom for another country and not preemptively striking that country, they were stuck losing their lives in droves because a few politicians were too stubborn to walk away from a battle that they knew they could not win.

Does supporting soldiers in this example contradict things I have said above, yes it does. Why, because soldiers are human no matter what battle they are fighting in. They make mistakes like I do. Did they all truly join the military to support a cause for a corrupt politician, No. Do they all want to continue fighting, No. Do they simply want to come back home to be with their families, Yes. Do I support them in that decision, Absolutely.

The moral of this whole thing is that humans are flawed on all sides of the issue, and the only truly free people are those who've already passed.

Here are a few quotes to ponder.

A patriot must always be ready to defend his country against his government.

Freedom rings where opinions clash.

The world's 'freeest' country has the highest number in prison.
