True Patriots

There are some slime balls that like to protest the war by protesting the funerals of fallen Soldiers and Marines. I won't waste your time by directing you to their name or website (yes they have one). But I will direct you here to a group called Patriot Guard Riders. They are a nation wide group of riders (or bikers) who are dedicated to ...well here are their own words:

Patriot Guard Riders Mission Statement

The Patriot Guard Riders is a diverse amalgamation of riders from across the nation. We have one thing in common besides motorcycles. We have an unwavering respect for those who risk their very lives for America’s freedom and security. If you share this respect, please join us.

We don’t care what you ride, what your political views are, or whether you’re a "hawk" or a "dove". It is not a requirement that you be a veteran. It doesn't matter where you’re from or what your income is. You don’t even have to ride. The only prerequisite is Respect.

Our main mission is to attend the funeral services of fallen American heroes as invited guests of the family. Each mission we undertake has two basic objectives.

1. Show our sincere respect for our fallen heroes, their families, and their communities.

2. Shield the mourning family and friends from interruptions created by any protestor or group of protestors.

We accomplish the latter through strictly legal and non-violent means.

Simply awesome. I highly recommend going to their website and reading some of the stories. I am so impressed and greatful. I am adding them as a quick link to the right on my blog. God Bless you Patriot Guard!
