Subject: RE: Memorial Day, A Look Back
And here, from Big Mick's original post responding to mine, a few select quotes, to illustrate why I reacted the way I did. Now, perhaps others don't view this as a pretty preachy, judgmental response made to evoke guilt for not towing the party line, but I certainly did.

And Norton1, again I beg to differ with you. You said, "No one accused Guest,Peace Matriot of spitting on anyone." I quote directly from Big Mick's 2nd post responding to me, "People like you are the ones that spit on me when I came home"

If you remove the "People like" part of that sentence Norton1, what do you have? "you are the ones that spit on me when I came home" is what you have.

Some pretty god awful judgments from Big Mick's first post, where his blatant attempt to play the guilt card first failed with me:

"Can you not find it within you to at least use the day to mourn the loss of these young ones, and honor their sacrifice?"

"Your post, if read by parents that have lost their sons/daughters, would seem so heartless and I don't get that sense from it."

"...can you not see the disrespect you shower on the fallen?"
