Answer 1

Yes!I do!It is a disgrace!This Labour Government is more interested in trying to appease the likes of those 'pressure groups led by the likes of Tony Juniper and Shami Chakrabarti!Than honour those proud veterans

Answer 2

First be responsible and evidence your charge that veterans were denied a Remebrance Day Parade.

I Googled this subject and all that came up in recent times was this event:

http://la.indymedia.org/news/2007/11/209...

If this is what you are referring to ,I completely agree with you that ALL veterans no matter what there views on wars are must be given the right to honour themselves and comrades in a Veteran's Day parade.

Once again is was a vile "My country right or wrong " idiot that denied these vrterans their fought for and died for right to march .

Answer 3

We cannot top the g**s from flaunting it because they got human rightism on their side and everyone is being so apologetic these days. We bend over backwards to please these militant groups while quiet people and causes get short shrift from the powers that be.

Answer 4

Yes!

Answer 5

I'm with you whilst having nothing against our g*y friends these people fought for there country and watched there mates get killed and the great UNITED KINGDOM cannot honour and respect them the country could possibly cover the cost of all remembrancee parades with what it cost to send that scot to china [brown for the slow ones amongst us] him and boris what a great advert for the blo-dy country

Answer 6

Yeah, right when I think the US has gone to the dogs, I simply look to the UK to see what nonsense is coming next. I don't envy your being the test bed for moonbattery, but it is scary as h**l knowing what is coming my way soon.  

Answer 7

I have nothing against g**s and their rights, but I do find that whole thing to be a little screwed up. Incredibly screwed up.

Answer 11

lets get something straight and call  a spade a spade , to use the word g*y to make the name homosexual sound good is usurping and corrupting a perfectly good word

Answer 12

Yes, totally these veteran parades should be allowed. I myself am a former Royal Marine injured whilst serving this country.

Answer 13

To dunrobin Yes war should not be glorified but it should be remembered the sacrifice of  the men and women who kept you and I safe from hitler .Keep the parades going.    Wheres Dunrobin gone he,s disappeared from the answers

Answer 14

Do I smell Troll? When have veterans been denied a VETERANS' DAY parade? And even if they had been what would that have to do with the g*y community? I mean wouldn't it be equally as offensive to have a THANKSGIVING parade? Troll.  

Answer 15

I have nothing against g*y parades, but I find it completely sickening that veterans would be denied.  It doesn't make sense.  Good for you supporting your servicemen.  

Answer 16

well said laddie.

you are my new hero. no one ever said thank you to me for 25 years service in the military.  

Answer 17

Well you must not be a veteran.

Members of the military HATE parades.

While the civilians sit beside the road, in the shade , drinking cold beverages, dressed for the weather.

The military members in the parade, had to get up 5 hours earlier, to get their uniforms perfect, bus to the parade route, stand around in the hot sun, sweating like pigs waiting for the parade to start.

Then march in the hot sun during the parade wearing uniforms that are just way to hot and will have to be dry cleaned at thier own expense after the parade.

But you somehow think that is honoring the military ??

If you want to honor the military, then have the civilians march in a parade on Base, and let the military sit on the side lines in the shade drinking beer.

Answer 18

Sounds like Berkeley, California.

I totallly agree with you.

I think they (that city) should be forced to secede from the Union and start providing for their OWN defense!  They like to bite the hand . . .

Answer 19

Listen, the Brit government is so stingy they even renamed Armistice day to Rememberance Sunday.  Loads of countries in the world remember their WW1 heroes and all other service personnel on that day, whatever day of the week november 11th falls on.  But not in England!

Answer 20

where were Veterans denied a parade?...............i know where i live there is always one and to my knowledge have never been denied one...and g**s have as much right to a parade as any one

Answer 21

I don't see why you need to compare this to g*y pride parades. Why not just ask "Do you think it's disgusting that they deny our veterans remembrance parades?"?

Answer 22

Not really since veterans parades are allowed and do happen.
