Mack you are such a tool. Most concerned people have jobs and responsibilities and couldn't make it, fool. But our hearts were with our vets probably fighting their last battles. And people will notice, on that you can be sure So STFU.

Actually, it DID say "hundreds" so I suppose it is probably more like 999,800.

This really wasn't a Vet march. It was a Tea Party march that included veterans. I understand that there is a Veterans March on Tuesday though. I'm not sure but I believe it is a bipartisan group that wants the shutdown to end. I think we all want that don't we?

SOAF I respect veterans and their right to the be heard. I just think they are being used. Astroturfing. We can't pick and choose what parts of govt. we want open.

Sorry Mach, you picked the wrong side on this one. How many vets didn't go because they're homeless or disabled or are in hospitals or weren't bussed in and paid to attend like lots of other activists. How many didn't show up because they died fighting for us?

Now THAT is a REALLY stupid post.


Sorry. I decided that part of my comment was out of line so I deleted it.

Stop. I mean it. Neither side can win this. I saw a wounded warrior picking up trash today. Walked three miles on one leg. I'll post the reddit. God bless our soldiers and fck these people who use them as political props.

A comment from the reddit

A few asked for the original pic: http://i.imgur.com/JeToT5W.jpg
A few accused me of taking the pic and then walking away. No, we and about 30 other vets picked up trash today on the National Mall for about 4 hours. I simply found it ironic that some vets were protesting the govt. while other vets were cleaning up. No true political statements here, and the Combat Vet in the photo would not want that.

Yeah, it's a shame how Obama treats Vets. Good thing the GOP is there to stand up for them.

Positive Rep me and I'll vote for Obama in 2016 now Free

I wish these patriots would storm the White House.

Mach seems so involved and opinionated on this thread - he is obviously concerned that his side is losing ground in the battle (as he should be).

Tell Obama to stop spending money he doesn't have authority to spend to put Barry-cades infront of the Vet open-air memorials then.

Don't attack these men twice, unsubstantially... but then again, all people like you know how to do is follow the leader.

Why would 3 groups of riot police and mounted patrol be dispatched for a couple of hundred people?

Oh I don't know. Whenever these situations arise the playbook calls for overwhelming force. You would want more police than less when THUGS start destroying barricades. I just wonder what kind of mess these HOOLIGANS left. Hippies!

Nothing near as bad as the mess the Occupiers left.
