Thanks - A commentary by Roger W Hancock, the PoetPatriot |
- a
commentary by Roger W Hancock
We all owe thanks to the military and our veterans.
It is the Veteran and those who now serve that sacrifice for our
society. At the rate we pay our military it is a financial
sacrifice to serve. That is the least of the sacrifices they make to
which I am forever grateful.
It is upon their sacrifices that allow me the freedom to write
without government scrutiny.
It is upon their sacrifices that allow me the liberty to come and go
as I please.
It is upon their sacrifices that allow me my children to raise as I
see fit.
It is upon their sacrifices that those I oppose who burn the flag,
may do so in ignorant liberty.
It is upon their sacrifices that allow distortion of the truth in our
mainstream media.
Their sacrifices enable the liberty for good and bad, but they are
not to blame.
Those who protest our military do not understand the responsibility
that is required to exercise true liberty.
Liberty is maintained by responsible freedom. Freedom
without responsibility is the exercise of fools. Those who exercise
freedom without responsibility, exercise stupidity. Such is their right.
Rights provided and protected by those who serve in the military.
So I on behalf of those fools and idiots, do hereby pay honor and
tribute to those Men and Women who do now and have served
in our armed forces. I thank you on behalf of those who are too
narrow minded to realize the thanks they owe to you, our military and
veterans.
