Do people who say things not realize how badly they are hurting the families and the soldiers? I know how bad it hurts because i'm the wife of a soldier, I have to explain to my son why people say that his daddy is doing nothing. I see him cry and worry and not understand. Live that life for awhile and then come back and see if your opinion is the same. Those soldiers are over there doing the best they can, not knowing if they are going to make it back that day. They listen to all this crap, yet you wanna say they don't have the right to speak up? Get a grip and stop talking about something you have no idea about.
