So, yesterday, I arrive on campus, enjoying the beautiful weather, and especially the fact that I had 55 days (54 now) till I'm officially done with school, I noticed several thousand small orange flags littering the campus lawn.
It took me about 10 seconds before I knew why they were there.
Each flag represented a fallen United States soldier. Now, I understand there are a lot of people in this country that hate the war we are in, and hate everything about the president, but I'm getting to the point where it's becoming flat out annoying. Is there NO other side to this conflict, do people just think that the war is ONLY about oil, money, and/or WMD's?
I had asked myself the question of what would happen if I, David Olson, were to stage something to the similar scale, however referring to the freedom that we are creating, the horrible people that we are, "removing" from the world? What would the response be to that? Considering I was on campus for most of the day, I did not notice any problems, no tearing of the signs down, no ripping of the flags up. Granted, I knew many people that wanted to, but they let them have their day in the sun.
I'm not going to respond as to what I think would happen if I did it, but ask yourself of what you think would happen.
Comments, suggestions, am I just a pissed off conservative?
