Now this has been going on as long as the war has, but now there is a southern church whose pastor is incouraging his congregation to protest at the funerals of veterans. The Pastor is convinced that he is right and that the family is partially responsible for their soldiers death. Its ridiculous. Link.

That is awful! You can't put someones death in a war on their family's shoulders. It's most certainly not their blame to carry. As if mourning a loss wasn't enough.. now they should think it's their own fault? I agree.. ridiculous..
that's ridiculous. people died and they're protesting it? they must really have nothing better to do. if i was at a funeral of a loved one and someone was protesting i would probably punch them in the face.
thats mean. funerals are for friends and family of the person who died to get together and mourn their friend/family member's death and to comfort each other and those who felt the loss most.
i think that pastor needs to respect that the soldiers who died had accepted that they might die in the war, and not point fingers, especially not at the families, who already feel bad enough at the moment.
that is so dumb. thats not being respectful of the people who die trying to make lives better for those people. that just not right. they deserve a funeral as much as anyone else if not more.
Wow. I wonder if he's going to heaven now. haha. He has no respect for what soldiers do for our country. It's not the familys fault that they died, it was there choice that they wanted to go fight.
