I don't have to tell anyone on this forum the significance of this holiday weekend. While there are those who see it as little more than the gateway to their summer season, I have uncovered something even more repulsive: several Chapter Presidents of The Council on American-Islamic Relations have called the propriety of Memorial Day into question this week, openly asking whether Fallen U.S. Troops, who in their view died in an illegal and oppressive invasion on the behalf of a nation ultimately founded upon violence, white supremacy, and racial inequality, truly merit commemoration and remembrance.
What say you, RP Nation? If given the opportunity, what would you say to these individuals in response to their questioning? Please keep it clean and respectful, but be honest!

I won't delete them. This is mind-blowing. Can't we please send these pissheads to whatever "good nation" they choose if they are so unhappy here?

To CAIR: please leave the United States as soon as possible. If you can't understand American history and society, we don't need your sorry butt polluting our nation. I'm sure ISIS will be happy to use you as a human shield.

From the Declaration of Independence, though not a legal document per se, but still one of our most powerful and well known:
"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness. That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed"
"All men are created equal"
Not sure where White Supremacy comes in to that. Sounds to me like Thomas Jefferson said all men were created equal. As a matter of fact, I believe that is a near direct quote (tense adjusted).
As for Memorial Day, and its supposed ties to specific wars. CAIR seems not to understand that soldiers are not politicians. We do not choose our wars, in the traditional way. They erupt, and honoring a fallen solider is about their sacrifice for their nation, not for their political view, or where they served. A great many of us dislike political climate(s), but that doesn't mean we can choose not to do what needs to be done. Those who came before did just that, some paying the ultimate price.
They deserve honor because they sacrificed everything, so that CAIR can say these vile things about them. They rest silently now, while others like us, scream at our monitors, foaming, wishing we could strangle them, but knowing it is their Right to say these horrible things, on this upcoming sacred day.
#^%#$^ CAIR. They can rot in hell for their views. Our Fallen gave all so they could be here saying this crap. $#&! them, for not being decent for just one weekend.

Actually don't really give a Rats A"~* what CAIR or any other possible protesters might think. If you can not grasp the concept of our gratitude to those who have made the ultimate sacrifice then be my guest and leave. It's not about what you want it's about our heroes.

You should care. They are trying to change the narrative on Memorial Day and other American traditions. Not without reason either. The first time you hear something like this it sounds absurd, then more people parrot the line, then it is picked up by the media as a "questions". Then you find yourself defending those that gave all. The question will turn to a murmur, the murmur to a voice, the voice to a crescendo and at some point in the future, unless we do something, Memorial Day will be gone. Look at how the progressives move on every issue under the sun.

You make a very valid point. It is shocking how many things we think are absurd that eventually bite us in the butt because we didn't take it seriously.

You are 110% Time On Target with your assessment, Cpl Jeff N.. Next year, they will likely step it up a notch, with a press conference the week of Memorial Day, outlining how this is not an inclusive holiday, how they feel unwelcome, marginalized, and how many of the Fallen destroyed their lovely garden paradise. This will no doubt be enough to get the lefties and the blame America firsters within the media spun up in a flurry of inspiration, and then this will get pundits out in force on the cable channels. Before the end of the week, the President goes off script when taking a few questions from reporters, and says something asinine, like "we should all feel some regret for how our Troops behaved in battle, this just goes to show you what happens when other folks see you as the infidel devil and cause of climate change!"
Yeah, I could see it playing out pretty much just like that.

Their concept of the "ultimate sacrifice" is martyrdom for the cause by taking as many infidels with them as possible. No wonder they don't get it.

Let me get this straight -
Coming from a group that thinks the holocaust didn't happen...
Women shouldn't drive...
Israel should be wiped off the map...
Hamas are freedom fighters and are justified in committing suicide bombings and indiscriminate rocketing of population centers...
THESE are the people who are going to lecture us about white supremacy and illegal warfare? Just to get publicity on Memorial Day.
SCREW YOU, CAIR!

I will be honest. I want CAIR to be destroyed. I want them to all go to a convention some where on a chartered private air liner, crash and die preferably in some unpopulated area. In addition, CAIR means terrorist and suppression of rights afforded to citizens in order to push their Islamic way of life.

MAJ (Join to see), it's of absolutely no consequence to me what CAIR thinks about the propriety of Memorial Day.

At the end of the day, our brothers and sisters died doing a job that many people, regardless of color, religion, country of origin, etc, wouldn't do. For that alone, the fallen deserve respect from ALL decent people, not just us fellow servicemembers. You would think that CAIR would see that. But then again, they haven't been very decent recently.
