But with the recent comments made by some of my fellow entertainers I can hold my tongue no longer."First, let me state that no one wants to go to war, sometimes it's the only solution to some of the complex situations like we're faced with in today's world."I recently spent time with the troops and their families in Ft. Bragg in North Carolina and observed both their dedication and their vulnerability. Hearing negative comments from fellow Americans - especially those in the public eye - is destructive and damaging to the morale of our servicemen and women and to our country in general. Our military men and women are putting their lives on the line for each and every one of us and deserve nothing but our unfailing respect and support."Whether or not you agree 100% with the president's decision regarding the situation with Iraq, the fact remains our troops are doing their jobs. They are our fathers and brothers, mothers and sisters, sons and daughters and are fighting to defend our rights and freedoms. Harsh words and half-baked opinions by people in the spotlight helps no one and reflects poorly on us all."I am a champion of our First Amendment privileges established by our forefathers. I feel it is one of our God-given rights as Americans to speak our minds freely and honestly. The First Amendment is one of the things that makes our country great. However, in such a fragile time in the world with that privilege comes the need to be responsible and mindful of the repercussions."Celebrities have a public forum to voice their opinions, which makes folks think that they are representing the majority, when in fact they represent the minority. Fans ask me all the time what they can do to be heard and I tell them the best way to have an impact is to hit'em in their pocketbook. Don't spend your money on what they're selling, be it movies, magazines or music."Country music has a history of being a voice for the working man with a long-standing tradition of being a patriotic supporter of our nation and its military. Just listen to Merle Haggard's Vietnam era song, 'The Fightin' Side of Me.' What held true in 1970 holds true today - 'When they're running down my country; they're walkin' on the fightin' side of me.''The Constitution of the United States of America Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

igloo Posted March 20 Report Share Posted March 20 Originally posted by mrmhs You hide behind the 1st amendment you coward... Exactly. This fucking dickhead is a misfit, plain and simple.No doubt he is not accepted in society, except in "internet land", where he can hide behind a keyboard.What we need to do is just ignore him. He is a freak with zero value or significance. I for one will never respond to his bullshit again, no matter what he says. No need to bring ourselves to his low levels, and certainly no need to artificially "acknowledge" his existence or views by offering a response to his bile.I hope others will do the same. He is human failure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

normalnoises Posted March 20 Author Report Share Posted March 20 Originally posted by dnice35 Normal,was your father a hippie? serious question. Let me put it this way dnice. My dad was in the 82nd Airbourne unit in the European Campaign.After the Nazi Germans surrendered he was on an US Army vessell heading to the South Pacific to join the US in the Japan Theatre. When the announcement of the Japanese surrendering came over the loudspeakers on the vessel. He sighed in relief thanking God he never had to fight another war. I wouldn't blame him and from what I learned from him I gained every reason to be against war, like him.And just because he is ALSO against this war does not mean he is a hippie.You best watch what you say about my dad.Don't fuck with me!
