Anti-Troop or Anti-War

I was doing some blog surfing today, and found a blog post that was talking about how anti-war citizens are starting to turn their attention to our troops:

Recently, there have been local incidents in which military personnel have been verbally assaulted while commuting on the Metro. Uniformed members have been approached by individuals expressing themselves as anti-government, shouting anti-war sentiments, and using racial slurs against minorities.

Whether or not you support the war, there is one thing you should be doing, and that is supporting our troops. The two things are very separate. By going to a solider who has spent years over seas protecting our homeland and telling them ‘thank you’ — you are not saying that you support the war. You are only thanking someone for doing their job to keep us safe.

Anyone who insults a solider or ‘attacks’ them is someone who disgusts me. Is this how you want to treat people who are over seas protecting us so that you can live a life of freedom? If you are against the war, then great, be against the war. There is no need for you to take out your anger on the troops who are only doing what they are told. A lot of troops are against the war as well, but they are following orders — because they want our country to be safe.
