I must respond to: "Equating speaking out against the war with not supporting our troops is ignorant."

Thinking that publicly speaking out against the war is not endangering our troops is ignorant.

Make no mistake about it, when people publicly object to the war they are encouraging our enemies, discouraging our troops, and endangering our loved ones lives!!

As an ex-Marine with friends and comrades in Iraq, it is my right and duty to express my displeasure with anyone publicly objecting to the war. They have the right to speak out against the war, just as I have the right to tell them exactly how I feel about it!
