Popular Post divemaster5734 Posted September 8, 2011 Popular Post Report Share Posted September 8, 2011 Minorities We need to show more sympathy for these people. * They travel miles in the heat. * They risk their lives crossing a border. * They don't get paid enough wages. * They do jobs that others won't do or are afraid to do. * They live in crowded conditions among a people who speak a different language. * They rarely see their families, and they face adversity all day ~ every day.. I'm not talking about illegal Mexicans ~ I'm talking about our troops! Doesn't it seem strange that so many are willing to lavish all kinds of social benefits on illegals, but don't support our troops? Wouldn't it be great if we took the $360,000,000,000 (that's billion) we spend on illegals every year, and spend it on our troops!!! A veteran is someone who, at one point in their life, wrote a blank check made payable to‘The United States of America ’ for any amount, up to and including their life. 21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jmcc Posted September 8, 2011 Report Share Posted September 8, 2011 The troops certainly need it more that the illegals. Bless the troops. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smee2 Posted September 9, 2011 Report Share Posted September 9, 2011 I am Canadian, so your troups are not my troups, but they often fight my battles. Your troups, just as my troups, are world involved ... they don't just sit home and fight someone who comes knocking. I just lost one of my former students in Afghanistan. Too young and talented to die but he wrote that cheque and when it came time to be cashed, he cashed in. So, thank you for your post. It is significant for all of the troups in the world who go out and fight battles that may not be theirs to fight but are trying to keep home free and other countries from becoming enemies. I wish there was a way to adequately design and supply better equipment, supply sufficient of their basic living needs while they are on duty in heaven only knows where. I guess all we can do in this situation is pray. Again thanks for the post. smee2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fastarnie Posted September 9, 2011 Report Share Posted September 9, 2011 I just shed a tear. Hell yes the troops need the help, and not just the troops but their families as well. All families of veterans should be taken care of. This topic also makes me angry. This is where my rv donations will go. I decided this in '09 when I first bought dinar. It's amazing that the policies of our government doesn't change in this regard. Thanks for bringing this to the attention of even more people.
