Even the EDL didn't turn up.

The EDL.

Big one in Edinburgh

BBC News - UK Armed Forces Day parade takes place in Edinburgh

No counter demonstrations from the peace loving religion?

Considering it was the local Air cadets chucking the teddies off the church roof, no. Even the EDL didn't turn up.

Just back from a taking the kids to a lovely morning in Odiham. A few 1000 people lined the streets for a march by the RAF and Army. Flags flying. Local schools, fire engine, cadets. Started with a marching band(no orange in site). Then followed with Chinooks flying down the high street, before meeting in the old square outside the church to be followed with a parade, speeches from local dignatories and a thanks from the commanding officer, before God Save The Queen on a flute and another Chinook flying low over.

Parade, over, then start of a folk festival with guest beer tents, tombolas, roast hogs and a charity sponsored parachute jump for teddy bears from the local Church roof.

Proud to be British.

The only thing I participated in was rememberance sunday when I was younger ........

I was niave enough back then to think I was marching to praise the saviours that kept us from fascism ... Until I grew up a little and could get access to materials more leaving an extreme youth handicap ... Until I realised the disgusting liberals that infect the earth, protesting against fascism, in fact support and push forwards there own extreme fascism, the exact fascism the nazis wanted from the suggestions of the Frankfurt think-tank ....

All those deaths for nearly nothing ...... how sickening ........






However in all good conciousness, I cant support the deplorable behaviour of the modern day military and the world policing policies ... What a shameful career path ..... I dont see how anyone can be so ignorant as to support war crimes and constant lies .....
