Remember them
« on: July 13, 2012, 01:08:38 PM »

Whitney Houston's death, while a sad thing, was the direct result of very unwise life choices, It dominated the news.

Charlie Sheen is 45 and his story is all over the news because he is a substance abuser, an adulterer, sexually promiscuous and obnoxious.

Lindsay Lohan is 24 and her story is all over the news because she is a celebrity drug addict and thief.

Amy Winehouse’s story was all over the papers and shoved down our throats as she was a singer and ‘celebrity’ and a substance abuser.

Something as frivolous as Kim Kardashian's stupid wedding [and short-lived marriage] was shoved down our throats.


While the following

Justin Allen 23
Brett Linley 29
Matthew Weikert 29
Justus Bartett 27
Dave Santos 21
Jesse Reed 26
Matthew Johnson 21
Zachary Fisher 24
Brandon King 23
Christopher Goeke 23
and Sheldon Tate 27...

all are all British Royal Marines who gave their lives last month for you.

There is no media for them; not even a mention of their names.

Honour THEM by sending this on. I did, will you?

Many young lives lost! Very sad, and we often forget why! Serving their country and doing what they believe in! I feel great sadness for the familys!!

Yes Dave.  It is a sad commentary on our society.   :(

Wither the first statement is accurate name for name or not, the overall point of the message is real!! Far as I'm concerned way to many lives have been lost and to many young men dismembered for what cause? They've been fighting over there for ever, and always will!! I don't think we belong over there anymore! I like to build a tall fence around the US of A and let's take care of our own business!!

it's ever so nice if you know what you are talking about  ;)

Triggering the patriotic reflex is just too easy with many members ...

Okay time to shut this off here!

Messages (rolling down hill like a snowball headed for something that isn't productive for CVOHarley) understood.

Shake hands and have a nice day.

Get your "Motor Running Head", out on the highway!

What we've got here is... failure to communicate. Some men you just can't reach. So you get what we had here last week, which is the way he wants it... well, he gets it. I don't like it any more than you men
