Nah, not incredible. These people are trying to make it another Vietnam -- replete with a deep hatred of the troops.

We know where the left stands. They do not support our troops, period. Question their patriotism? They don't have any.

The coalition had no choice but to pull its float - a puppet show popular with children - in protest from the Parksville parade, spokesman Rick Sullivan said.

Bravo, good for them, and I mean that. They stuck to their principals. There's a lot of pansy groups out there that when faced with a situation like this would resort to some kind of legal action that would screw everyone.

American-dominated military theme

They are supporting Canadian troops, not Americans, you jerks!

I doubt that the puppet float will even be missed...

Doesn't take much to set them off, does it? A tee-shirt, oh the horror, the horror...

Guess they were already bummed out over the fact that Canada still has a military.

In a way, this is good news. The "offended" group pulled its float. The parade organisers did not give in and pull the t-shirts and beg forgiveness for offending this group--(which is probably what would happen in Toronto)--they stuck with the plan of selling the t-shirts with the "support our troops" logo---good for them!!!

Here's the web site of the Parksville and District Chamber of Commerce. There's a page on the parade but I didn't see anything about online T-shirt sales which is too bad.
