I'll go ya one better:
(and I dont direct this to the people on GC, but to the people who just slap one on their vehicles and think that means they support the troops.... I know OTW and KR support the troops).
Instead of putting a trite yellow ribbon magnet thingy on your vehicle that makes you just like the other 10,000,000 mindless sheep out there, and does nothing really in the long run, except make the screenprinters really rich, how about actually volunteering with the retuning & wounded millitary service men and women? If you dont live in an area where this is possible, how 'bout cutting a check to the USO directly (they could probably benefit from it alot more than their $.25 take from a magnet) or some other worthwhile srevice group?
Gotta love the magnets tho. So American... even when something isnt about us, we can make it about us.
The troops at BAMC (Brooke Army Medical Center) I go to visit weekly with severe burns and missing limbs could care less what I have on my vehicle. They just want people to talk to, and not about the war, so they can feel normal again.
