Popular Post Rayzur Posted February 10, 2013 Popular Post Report Share Posted February 10, 2013 Sometimes we agree, sometimes we don't. The 1st Amendment protects our right to the freedom of expressing our beliefs, our convictions. Thank God. I may not always like what you say, but there is no question about the importance of your being able to do so. I may not always like what you say..... but I fought for you.... your rights.... as Americans... 23 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Machine Posted February 10, 2013 Report Share Posted February 10, 2013 I'm not even an American and that brought a tear to my eye ........ why cant everyone feel this???. I'm a true blood Irishman and I know the message behind this, my country went through 800 years of rape, pillage, torture, murder, espionage and dictatorships and my fore fathers marched on .... so I could have the life I have today ......... Rise above it America ..... remember the past and embrace your new future, never settle for second best . WOW what a powerful video. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may not always like what you say..... but I fought for you.... your rights.... as Americans... Dayumit, Rayzur....STOP making me cry in my coffee!!! I pray those who believe in God first and then country stand up against this notion of political correctness to inform the current and younger generations that the wisdom of our Constitution is still VERY sound in its original context. Yes, times do change, but morals and a distinction between right, wrong, and nature do not. Take your freedom to enjoy American liberties but do not take liberties with our freedoms. support the love that sustains our military and encourages them to make good, Godly, and wise decisions and always do so with prayer (first) and then actions(when needed). God is at the heart of America's Spirit, despite what some try to say. When my heart fills to bursting as I consider our military (of any age)...it is because I know the American soldier stands for more more than a human ideology. Most stand as guardians of those who have not forsaken God or the wisdom He gave our founding fathers. God bless America. God bless and guide the American soldier. Thank you, Rayzur, Crossfire 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RodandStaff Posted February 10, 2013 Report Share Posted February 10, 2013 Thank You Rayzur... and thank's to all you veterans.... maybe you will never receive the kind of appreciation you aught to in this crazy place we call home... but like a farmer sowing seeds... you will indeed reap a harvest from all sacrifice and the good things you have done... when you sow sacrificially, with other's in mind, for a higher purpose and an idealism we have held so long... the harvest will come... in this life or the next. God Bless Ya'll!!! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redhorse Posted February 10, 2013 Report Share Posted February 10, 2013 Thank you Rayzur. This video brings to mind a situation at work. He was being A smart young 21 year old showing no respect for those who served. I told him How I felt but he didn't care. At the end of the week I retired. I left him to live in his Make believe world of video games, along with all of life's questions that he has The answers to. What a shame. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIGSKY1 Posted February 10, 2013 Report Share Posted February 10, 2013 Rayzur- dang it, these are hard to watch. While I never served in the military, my father flew a fighter in WWII in the European theater. He passed away a 2 years ago but was a hell of a man!!! Thank you and all the vets for what you do, this country will never be able to repay you. Would be honored to meet you one of these days just to shake your hand!!! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may not always like what you say, but there is no question about the importance of your being able to do so. I may not always like what you say..... but I fought for you.... your rights.... as Americans... You did not fight for me Rayzur. You fought for something corrupt and evil and you fought for a lie. You left the back door open and now we deal with NDAA, DHS, TSA, CIA, NSA, 2nd amendment rights as well as some parts of the first. I respect all that you feel devoted to, but we have a real problem...oh, might I forget ...the drones...those damn drones. 3000 Americans may have died in New York, but just how many innocent Iraquis needed to die so that number is quenched ? We were way past 500, 000 children before we invaded the country...it reminds me of the Vietnam crap a lot of us went through...for what...a lie 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
