It means kicking me out of a hotel or preventing me from shopping that day doesn't actually make me remember veterans. It doesn't make me appreciate what they did anymore, doesn't make me think about what they did or the sacrifices that they made.
I think that more should be done to raise awareness, especially amongst kids, that would get people to actively get involved in Rememberance Day events or to learn more about what Remembrance Day is all about.
Trying to alter people's lives by restricting what they can do, in my opinion, isn't going to raise anymore awareness, create any more respect or enhance the importance of Remembrance Day in people's lives.
