Are you posting this to try to gather a counter-protest? If so ... you should probably make that more clear, because you're coming off as a supporter. If not, you're barking up the wrong tree.

Why do I get a request to log into some skeezy website (idisk.me.com) when I click on this thread?

Good.

Normally, I would agree with you. However, since the ROE’s have changed and our boys are not allowed to win this war, what is the point of them being over there? Cannon fodder? I think we should bring them home as well, but not because I don’t think war ever solved anything. We should bring them home, because they deserve better leadership than what we, the American people, have given them. For that I am sorry.

I don’t agree with the reasoning of these peacenik, commie morons, but at this point I do agree with the objective, I am sad to say.

Maybe it’s just because I try to give everyone the benefit of the doubt, but I took “deal with this” to mean he was trying to organize a counter-protest.

However, I agree that he needs to be MUCH more clear about which side he is on.

Your lack of splaining what you mean is disturbing. You may want to define whether you are for it or again it.

Well, I’ll admit that past experience (lengthy) with FR as doers has jaded me. Most seem to have wits and a modicum of intelligence.

You’re making me feel as though I should offer a sort of step-by-step thing?

Bad guys - DC December 16 - does anyone in the DC Chapter of FR have the time or gumption to organize something counter?

Yanno, I rather strongly agree with you. Just had a long phone chat with a freind who, with me, did GoE 1 and Eagles Up.

Bottom Line... If we allow ANYONE to to paint troops deployed in this sort of anti-war cachet do we not risk much?

YMMV.

Shrug. Perhaps I do need to simple words more.

Sounds you don’t like us unsophisticated dumbasses here, our lack of nuance.

You complain that you were castigated previously and then post in cryptic ambiguous fashion yet again.

— Shrug and eye roll ——

That’s better. Just say “Let’s counter protest”. Otherwise, people will think you are with them. That was my first impression.

Mine too. He could have been a bit clearer, but sounds like he’s on the right side. Happens...
