If anyone denies the fact that they are free Americans because of the sacrifices the brave American and our Allied soldiers have
given to make that freedom possible, then you are either a deluded, pussy liberal, or have a likely non treatable mental illness, pretty much the same illness actually. Either way, you belong in another country or in an institution. Stay off Facebook.

I am a disabled combat veteran. I disagree with the soldier-hating group that has nothing to contribute to society but to slander and insult people with differences. But, I swore an oath to uphold the constitution and protect freedoms from enemies both foreign and domestic, which means that anyone reading this or affiliated with this page is guilty of trying to impose their will upon free people. That makes you an enemy of the constitution, and therefore a domestic enemy, just like the commie leftists in this country. I might hate the same group as you do, but I don't try to change them by treading on their freedoms. Besides, I know I'm a hero because of the children I pulled from burning vehicles while they were covered in shrapnel and brain matter. I was told I was a hero by Christians I protected from the hate-cult you know as Islam. I don't need the civilian populous to start acting like the extremist enemies I fought in some stupid attempt to defend my honor.

Sorry Marty but you contradict yourself. You start off by saying they are free Americans because of soldiers like me, but you would attack those freedoms by signing onto this petition and you become the enemy. I hate liberals just as much as you, but this group hasn't committed any crimes and are in fact expressing freedoms which combat veterans have provided. Let them say what they will, don't let them get to you. I need you to be stronger than them for the war that is coming. 1 persons freedom ends where another begins.

I'm a veteran and am very proud of the time I had in uniform. My time has passed and the Soldiers of today need you as American, s and support. Take the Soldier out of the equation and visualize what life might be like. Freedom is not free people!

UNBELIEVABLE THAT THIS EXISTS!!!!!!!!!!!! ALL I HAVE TO SAY IS THIS, IF YOU CANT' GET BEHIND OUR TROOPS...STAND IN FRONT OF THEM!!!!!!!!!

not all of our men in the services have behaved with honor, But at lest they put their lives on the line for their Country! when you join you are writing a check for the goverment to cash up to and including your LIFE. to this old V.N. vet that makes you a hero. but the real hero's are the ones who paid the ultimate measure for their Country!

I am the wife of a Special Forces medic, who was also a Ranger. I am a child born into the military. My Aunts, cousins, uncles, brother, niece are and was in military. I watched my dad come home from Viet-Nam and be spit upon, garbage thrown at him, people yelling "baby killer" at him. I watched my dad cry, held him when he had nightmares and buried him. I will defend, protect, and always fight for, pray for our troops. Without them we are doomed. They were not drafted, they volunteered as...

Don't condemn, make nasty comments, or make another child cry because everyone thought their daddy was evil. Love, protect, pray for them and their families. Hold love in your heart.

I have numerous family members who have served in the armed forces. All armed forces are heros.

Just think for a minute where our country would be without them. They make the ultimate sacrifice to keep our country safe...the least we can do is support what they are doing.

I am a United States Air Force veteran, 1987-1992. I understand what it is to stand the line, and support my brother and sisters in arms, both past, present and future, as well as the families of them all as they await to join them again, either here or in the afterlife. I understand what "All gave some, some gave all" means. The sacrifice of our service for the benefit of this One Nation, Under God is worth our efforts.
