Could someone please answer this question?
What are pro-war protester doing in DC when they should be deployed in Iraq or Afghanistan?

They should get plane tickets and go fight and kill! I might even chip in for a ticket or two.

2. A lot more were supposed to come
but they heard a rumor that military recruiters were going to be there, so they found they "had better things to do".

3. They're "fighting the war of ideas" here at home.
At least that's what they always say when asked that question. Besides, there are minorities to fight the real wars, why should they worry their beautiful minds about things like this? :sarcasm:

8. Because they are fighitng the war of ideas
or you missed the memo? :sarcasm:

True story one of these idiots actually got across the street, 20 vs 2000 and tried to engage us in coverstaion, in his cute way....

You damn anti american traitors don't know what freedom costs. (bear in mind I was standing in the midst of Vets for Peace)

My voice dropped to very low as I started tellign the kid a tale about a shoot out, combat, smells, fear in all its glory gore... he lost all kinds of color and started backing away....

None of us, bad planning, had enlistment forms...

but he decided to leave us alone... one of these guys went, damn that is quite the story, what war?

Foreign war, war on drugs, but combat is combat, shit and they don't have to know that, now do they?

They all nodded, we shared something the freeper did not, and me being a woman was far more embarrasing for the freeper...
