Sunday at church my minister asked that all people who have lost a loved one in a war stand up

SO I STOOD UP  : my family has lost someone in every war on and off American Soil except in this war . my husbands family has lost a few members fighting for our country so i stood up , I was the only one (hubby was taking baby to bathroom) the ONLY ONE , WHY , my family on both sides came to this country and some were already here and had been for many hundreds of years , they all fought for this land , some to keep their lands and some to free their lands , so yes i had family that has died fighting for this country

then he asked if you have family that has served in the military

SO I STOOD UP : the men in my family take this honor very highly at at least one in every generation has signed up and fought to preserve his country , in the civil war many of my family fought on both sides , we had losses on both sides , but yes they stood up for what they believed in the FREEDOMS that the Military of the US had already fought for , i had family fight in WWI i had family fight in WWII to stop the evil that had taken human form , some died trying to keep this country from being enslaved by hitler , in the Vietnam even though it was never declared a war i had family my father fight and risk his life for a country that threw baby diapers at him when he stepped off his ship but he went back two more times each time being yelled at and hated for serving his country laying his life down for people that had no idea what  he was fighting for. FREEDOM AND SAFTEY,  my brother went to Saudi back in 96 to fight for our country it is a shame that we did not make parking lot back then out of the country

then my minster asked if you have family serving now please stand up

SO I STOOD UP: my brother in law has left his family two times to lay his life on the line for a country that would rather rape his wife then look at him , but he is also fighting for AMERICA do you know what this war is about ? you might say money or oil or whatever you are almost right ,the men and sadly then women who are laying thier lives down for this country are fighting to keep us safe, do you know what Fanatic Islam wants  to do to us ? i bet you don't want to think about it . i will tell you they dont want to be our friends they would rather see us all dead , or at least all of our men so they can rape us and make us give birth to crazy fanatics. but what is sad is we dont let our military do their job anymore , how many marines have been on trial for killing ? why ? they are in a war they are being shot at it is their job to kill. that is what they are trained to do, i know it is a sad thought but if a innocent child gets caught in cross fire do you think we should out a man in prison because he is fighting for his country ? NO our military does not get paid well they have to pay state taxes in NC during a war , ARE YOU NUTS . we have people running for president that hate our military . MY BIL fights for your FREEDOM

i should have stayed standing , how many of you thank the men and sadly the women that lay their lives down for the freedoms you have? how  many of you will teach your children about the  people who a buried in the lands of other countries . my daughters ' schools were open yesterday i was shocked how dare they AND WE HAD A PARAD in our city and the schools were open , if you can close for MLK day you better close for Memorial day because without those men dying for this country without the men fighting for this country now we would not be able to celebrate MLK day .

SO STAND UP  , SALUTE YOUR AMERICAN FLAG , TEACH YOUR CHILDERN THE PLEDGE OF ALLIEGNCE , BE PROUD OF YOUR COUNTRY

becuase these men have died so you can complain about religion , these men have died so you can call your neighbor in to CPS because you dont like her , these men have died so government can brainwash our children , these men have died so that we can open our borders to everyone who wants to come in and mooch off our welfare can. these men have died so you can shirk your right to vote , these men have died so we can tolerate immoral behavior and have poor role models for our children like Brittany Spears, these men have died so that the trashy reality tv shows can be on tv and you can care more about american idol and wife swapping then your fellow neighbor , these men have died for your freedom to bash other people and to take away others rights to say MERRY CHRISTMAS.

STAND UP .

Thankyou and YES! Every time I see or hear of ANYONE who has at ANYTIME served I always voice my heartfelt gratitudes and pray over them.  I also make sure they know just how grateful we are!! My hubby nor I have ever served in any part of the armed forces, my dad was in the coast gaurd and my grandpa was in the navy, but in our immediate family, no one has ever served... yet.... my kids are still young and I don't know what God's plans are for them yet.

What I DO know is that most don't really GET IT! They don't truly understand the price that was paid so that they could walk on free soil, and that to me is very sad! Cause I know that we are beyond blessed to have those who are willing to stand up and fight for what webelieve in and what we all benefit from!

So, to YOUR family members, THANKYOU! And God's MANY blessings on them!
