Berkley Should be apologizing

This blog relates to an article in the national news that can be accessed via the link here: http://www.mercurynews.com/breakingnews/ci_8249064. \

Berkeley City Council should be ashamed! How could anyone in America be so brazen as to call the defenders of our free nation unwelcome in our free nation? Perhaps the liberal council has a short term memory disorder. Perhaps they are unable to recognize that they live in a Hitler free, non-USSR, non-Colonial, civilized and free society in great part due to the blood of Marines and members of our other armed forces. All of whom voluntarily defended our freedoms at the expense of their wives and mothers' tears.

The article above references a remark by the council claiming that they didn't want their sons to die in this war. I ask the council then, should we then disband the volunteer military and send everyone’s sons and daughters home? Of Course not, the citizens and council of the beautiful and affluent communities of Berkeley would never dare to leave the west coast defense-less. No they just prefer that mothers from Oakland, Watts, and other black or impoverished communities sacrifice their sons for the cause of freedom. How dare the Marine Corps infringe upon the rights of the white to enjoy low-carb gelatos, walks in the park, metal detector free schools and college educations!!

Berkeley be careful you’re letting your hoods show. Such actions should not be taken lightly. Here you have an entire community that has banned together to make a statement that upon deeper reflection gleams a dim beam of light into the communities less talked about feelings. They may not support the war in Iraq, for that matter neither do I, but to refuse to allow the volunteer forces that defend us all against all enemies foreign and domestic is an extreme position and action whose true motives are being disguised by the adoption of a popular sentiment regarding an unfavorable war.

I say that their veil is too thin and the ugliness of their true sentiments is quite apparent upon close inspection.
