Oh man, so proud to say I don't think like you do. I apologize to all those that were willing and unwillingly involved in wars for a society that has cultured types that don't see the difference. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But being the small city that it is. “ prince rumour” there were assumptions and accusations made. Fair enough. Who's ass is the little old man talking about? My guess is that he is just doing the...'I'm set in my ways and beliefs so I don't have to respect yours, because I served.'...? Whoever that is that he might be upset with... For the record, every generation in my familly on both sides has served. Never met my grandfathers. My great grandfather died on Flanders Field. When I was competing in martial arts I would get inspiration from my cousin while he did his tours in Afghanistan and Iraq. We would email each other and he would tell me tales and send pics. I would tell him 'if you can do that, I can shake my nerves and put myself in the next tourny.' I'm against any war, as everyone should be. However, huge respect for any person that serve their country. Edited June 27, 2023 by bishopshodan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

War is political, about religion, whatever. Remembrance Day is about the sacrifice and the people, completely separate. In fact, it's anti political in that regardless of your opinions, you come together to honor those involved on that day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do honor them, never said I don't and don't even think of accusing me otherwise. It's still political, it's roots are in politics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe many top orgs have these in place. But yeah, the NHL screwed up here. Changed their stance over a few. The NHL hierarchy doesn't like controversy; nor would they implement a policy that could lead to (star) players leaving the NHL (Russians, some Christians and others). Hence, their autocratic decision. Sadly, it takes a long time for human beings to change beliefs, attitudes, opinions, etc that have been passed from generation to generation, since the beginning of time. After all, look how long women have been fighting for equality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even the most boring man in hockey is vocally disapointed about this decision. My respect for McDoodoo just went up a little bit. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
