So...if that is way more meaning ful...lets just scrap Remeberance day and send all the money that we use on that event to the families.....that would be much more meaingful to them....

Well, you must think I'm a real freak then, because I honestly believe donating money to veterans associations/soldier's families is WAY more support than a bumper sticker. I know you're tied to the notion that these are all equally respectable forms of support... just an FYI that not everyone agrees. Please, if you're going to respond, skip the condescending emoticons, it sounds like you have half decent points, but then make a jerk out yourself with this roll-eyes crap. Act like an adult and save the emoticons for a less respectable board.
