Is it too much too ask for a minute of respect? but I bet it's more from ignorance than malice. I think most people don't know protocol or ettiquette regarding this type of thing.

I think we need to bring back Civics Class in to the schools. (By the way, I am commenting on the photo and our nation in general and not the topic in this thread).

Where did you get that photo?
Here:

The Veteran

Although I am no longer in the military, I live in a community with a large military presence. One or another of my friends is always e-mailing me something like this.

I was encouraged to hear from one of them at a party today that we haven't buried a Navy SEAL since April. I also met a SEAL who had been in Iraq, and who is going back in February.

It was interesting.
