Why does TLC hate America? |
|
Is anybody else watching Operation Homecoming? They are actually showing soldiers who have been injured! This must mean they hate America!! One soldier showed a massive bottle of painkillers which he said he eats like pez and takes six times the normal dose of Zoloft antidepressant to handle the physical and psychological pain of basically losing the use of his hands.
I'm impressed by the neutrality of the show, it is pretty much letting the families awaiting their soldier and the soldier him or herself (just showed a mom returning to her kids, the youngest of which did not seem to know who she was) tell their story. OK, maybe neutral isn't the right word, there seems to be no expression of dissent from the soldiers, but it is focusing on the emotional aspects of separation and return.

1. Showing the realities of war |
|
is in effect an anti-war statement. That's why the War Hawks call it unpatriotic. If people were graphically shown and reminded about the worst aspects of what war really is on a regular basis it would stop a lot of needless bloodshed.

Most of their programming is interesting and informative. Even their reality shows are much more well done than the crap on network TV.

"Ha ha, Like pez - get it! That's funny, not tragic" said the borderline retarded freeper wearing an American flag T-shirt.
