You think its wrong.
You tell us make love not war.
Are simple reply shut up you stupid hippie.
It's part of your country and pride.
6 generations of people in my family.
revolution
civil
ww1
ww2
vietnam
Iraq war
One day you will join and know what we feel.
Your the one against the soldiers
not us.
Go ahead and protest.

I'm not saying the wars are good, they're not. What I'm saying is that if we are fighting a war to keep us safe here, we shouldn't bash our soldiers who fight to keep us safe.

Hoorah!!! Great job, Dallas!! Thank your family for me! :D  This is well written though it needs a bit of capitalzation work.   Like Veitnam, WWI, and WWII would be capitalizied, but other than that it's awesome!!

I agree with you,, if people want to protest the people who fight and die for them than they can, but it doesn't make it right.
