Patriot Guard Riders

I know some people in the forums have an interest in the group. I wanted to share with you a photo gallery that shows them in action. A local young man, Nyle Yates, was killed in Iraq and his funeral was Monday. To see the photo gallery, look for the link on the right side of the screen, under the "Wall of Silence" box.

*shakes her head*

My admiration for these guys is muted because they sure as hell didn't care when Phelps and his brood of hatemongers were protesting at the funerals of gay men, did they?

Bitter? Me?

Bitter, maybe, but more likely focused on one of your personal issues.

There are many wrongs in the world today, more than a few of them by assholes like Phelps and his ilk that use appeals to Authority (and one that, so far, hasn't seen fit to voice His opinion) to try to shore up petty hatreds and general small-mindedness. There are only so many hours in a day, and so many places one can be at any given point in time (one, given a lack of advanced cloning capability under today's scientific knowledge).

Like you, the PR folks have their personal issues, on which they tend to focus given limited resources. I don't see where their not sharing yours makes it any less noteworthy that they are standing up for something in which they believe, and doing so in a non-agressive manner.

Uhm, where you?

Thanks for posting this Lorilei.
