Freedom of speach isn't free. Its paid for by the blood of those very military men and women who have and are dying in the line of duty.

And freedom has been suppressed by military men. The military must not be supported unconditionally.

Yes, I think the guy's an *** too.

I'm just saying that the military cannot be supported unconditionally.

I remember back in 1990 before Desert Storm happened that there were over 100 deaths of military people from various sorts of accidents. Then the war started, and you didn't hear too much of that because of the war casualties. But there was really stupid accidents that happened that I heard from my unit when they were over there. One guy was showing off some rocket propelled grenade when it went off and struck someone in their tent. Fortunately, that person survived, although he was messed up. So yeah, there can be some boneheaded accidents. But we need to support the troops over there now, and not make them feel like their idiots for being over there. And yes, we still are at war. It may not be an officially declared war, but they took the first shot by destroying the twin towers. It won't be over until we can wipe out this extreme form of religion.

The irony is that we've enabled the very forces that are most anti-american by invading Iraq.
