Some wars are just and necessary, others are questionable in both motive and result, These women have a right to bring up this discussion and it is one we should have though their timing is rather rude and insensitive. Of course, if they tried to make their point in another way, we may have not noticed and the discussion would not occur.
Afgan women disrupt Rememberance day ceremonies
- Thread starter LickRus
- Start date
I wonder how these Muslim barbers would react if James Spencer walked into their shop? (James is a natural born female but identifies as male now.)
I thought we went to Afghanistan to build roads, bridges, schools, hospitals and give women the vote. Or, is it true that we actually went there to use Afghans for target practice? Is that what the women are telling us?
Those who were in attendance of the ceremony , don't they have the right to express themselves by observing the 2 minutes of silence in peace ?
Respect and tolerance only applies when Muslims are holding a Quad day (or some other protest) at Queen's Park.
Get the fuck out of Canada - go back to Afghanistan or Pakistan and live in the stone age.
Sure they do, and they express that by reflecting silently for two minutes. This year, as with the past few, I had a drink with some buddies at 11am on Nov 11th. We're remembering sacrifices in a different way. But these woman chose to rant & rave rather than reflect or probably remember - they have the right to do so. Wrong time & place to do it, though.
Does that answer your question?
Fucking losers. Come to our great Country, get more freedoms then they have in theirs. And still feel the need to shit all over Canada.This is whats wrong with the world today. If you dont want to conform to our Country then get the fuck out.
We got more bullshit from these pigs !!! Another memorial in Trenton was defaced. This is the repatrition monument dedicated to our fallen in Afganistan. This son of a bitch is lucky if the cops catch him, because if the folks in Trenton catch him they'll cut his balls.

Residents in Trenton, Ont., have expressed outrage and disgust after an Afghan war memorial was vandalized only days after Remembrance Day services.
The incident, which took place early Wednesday morning, has evoked a strong community response.
Home to CFB Trenton, the military plays a strong role in the community of 20,000.
A furious Quinte West Mayor John Williams said he’s received hundreds of emails and notes from residents upset by the recent vandalism attack.
“I’ve heard people on talk-back radio asking what the punishment should be,” he said. “We should set an example when we catch the individual responsible for this. There’s just no excuse.”
Two CCTV images from the memorial’s site have been released showing a man with a baseball cap destroying flowers and plants at the Afghanistan Repatriation Memorial, then walking away.
The memorial site, dedicated just last Saturday by families for soldiers killed in Afghanistan, was not damaged. Wreaths laid at the site were also untouched and city crews have already repaired the plants.
Quinte West OPP are currently investigating the situation.
“We asking anyone who knows anything to come forward with information to police,” said Williams. “We’d be very happy when we catch the person responsible.”
No arrests have yet been made.
Trenton is located about 160 kilometres east of Toronto.

The women in the original post have the right to speak, as repugnant as the speech might be.
This dude is different, he should be held accountable for this vandalism within the prescribed limits of the existing laws. Unless he's some PTSD'ed out vet, lashing out at the A'stan Memorial because of his frustration with the half-assed treatment he's getting from his country in dealing with his problems (that's a growing problem; anybody here ever make a donation to the MFF? Anybody? Hello??)
Hopefully, there's nobody within the CFB Trenton community stupid enough to try anything (the same goes to the civilian community, but they're not under a freakin' microscope right now because of some stupidity that happened around Tampa and Langley).
Just my opinion, yours all may differ
Not trying to start anything with you LickRus, just using your post to vent a little.
Does anybody know if the Japanese or Germans ever disrespected our war dead by creating such a ruckus at a Remembrance commemoration?
STOP BRINGING UP WW2!
It was more 60 years ago!!! It was a different time... It was a different war.. Fought for different reasons..
60+ years ago a war ended where 45,000 Canadian soldiers lost their lives liberating countries from the Germans and Japanese..
ONE year ago a war ended where 158 Canadians lost their lives INVADING a country to topple a government...
After WW2 a Japanese Canadian would have been MORONIC to try to protest remembering the dead (especially since we had likely just let them out of a concentration camp).
Protesting one is not the same as protesting the other.
I think they were the aggressors, were they not? What would the sign say "You should have surrendered like nice people"
In your opinion needless to say. Would you prefer that we brought up the Boer War?
