DUTY. SACRIFICE. HONOR.

Sir, you died in a moment of heroism few of us could match. You earned your spot in Heaven.

I think it belongs in the GD. Cops already know what sacrifices our brothers have made. Are we going to move every thread about memebers of the Armed Forces who have died in action to the Heros forum? This kind of stuff has to be buried because it's controversial? You don't want to piss off the badge envy crowd?

Quoted:
There is no effort to appease/accomodate the "cop bashers."  GoatBoy asked for threads to be moved to their appropriate forum several weeks ago.  This is done routinely, but is not noticeable as threads just "disappear" and the thread's originator is usually notified via IM to draw attention/explain.  I would make a clear distinction between this thread--[b]DOD 1991[/b]--and a "War Hero" killed yesterday.  The BOS forum exists for a reason.  Thanks for understanding.  [:)]
