Our Troops

I came across a video via FaceBook earlier today.  A girl posted a video stating how she doesn't support the troops.  That the troops are either dumb and/or evil people.  That they go up to little kids with AKs and shoot 'em.  She goes on and on with this nonsense.  This girl obviously has NO CLUE as to what she's talking about.  She states "If someone could find me a bumper sticker 'I do not support the troops', I'd gladly put it on my car." ---Yeah, let's see how long she survives with that. Okay, maybe she doesn't support troops, but there is no reason whatsoever to sit there and ramble off a buncha crap that isn't true.  I don't nessicarly support the war, but I DO support our troops.  She wouldn't be able to say the dumb crap she says if it wasn't for our troops.  How does she think she got that freedom?  It just fell out of the air? NO!  Our troops DIED and shed BLOOD for that freedom.  People like her just need to be gathered up and dropped off in Afagan or somewhere.  She clearly stated she doesn't appreciate the freedom she has and since these other contries obviously pose no threat (according to her), she'd be just fine there.  You don't have to support our troops, but at least get your facts right before posting retarded videos.  And here is the video:

US Air Force Academy backtracks on Operation Christmas Child

I was on my way home today and heard this story on the raido. The U.S. Air Force Academy will not be participating in Operation Christmas Child this year. Why? Because according to ONE cadet, it's promoting one religion: Christianity. This cadet complained about and even made national news. In my opinion, it's crazy. Not only do churchs participate in OCC, but public highschools and middle schools do as well. So how exactly is this promoting one religion (besides the message the churches include)? Just because it has Christian roots doesn't mean it's supporting/promoting it. Operation Christmas Child is about making one little girl or boy, that doesn't have anything, happy on Christmas. Without OCC, they wouldn't even have a Christmas. It's a charity event, not shoving the Christian religion down their throats! What about Operation Shoebox? Betcha they don't complain with that one. This is how I see it, OCC has been going on for a very long time. If this person (or anyone else) doesn't want to participate in making a child happy on Christmas, then don't participate, but don't make it to where none of the rest are able to help just because they don't want to.
