Earn your rights
November 12, 2009 by troopm
This time every year, I feel Veteran’s Day is nothing more than a “FEEL GOOD” day for those who have not served in the services. They only have to acknowledge vets one day out of the year, and then they can forget about them and carry on with the lives which the vets secured. What I find amazing is many of the people who praise us of this day in November are the same that criticize them the rest of the year, seeking to remove their benefits and to take the rights that those vets fought for away from the American people.
Veteran’s Days is a Feel Good Day for those who are too selfish to serve their country. We need mandatory service to earn the right to become a citizen of this country. Before one can vote, drive, drink, own a gun, or work government jobs, one must serve this proud nation in the armed forces for at least 3 years: Honorably.
