Never heard of your group before today, but heard that y’all were
protesting (for lack of a better term) a Christmas theme at an AFB. I’m a
Vietnam vet, So I care deeply about our armed forces and the direction
it’s heading. I gather your reasoning for your protest was that all
religions, or whatever other group might be interested, wasn’t
represented. Get a grip. If You don’t like a picture, leave the theater,
don’t blow it up! We have become such a sissified country. You can be
sure though, that the founding fathers would be appalled that any American
would object to any Christian observation, celebration, etc., at an
American military base!
