A couple of days ago, I posted a not thanking those who served in the US Military for their service. Don't look for it now, I was given a violation and the post was removed. I can't imagine what was so horrible about thanking people who fully deserve my appreciation. I was given no explanation as to why the post was a violation or why ot was removed. If this one is removed, I will complain LOUDLY and will consider legal action.
Thank You for you service?

My dear, may I remind you this is Yahoo Answers, made solely for questions asked to be answered by participants. Not for chatting. That means to say you didn't post a proper question, which is one of the rules. The TRICK for your post not to be deleted is to ask a question first, then just add some comments related to your question, like, I commend the soldiers etc. as you said. Try not to lose you cool for such a small thing. Try to learn the rules and play the game well, get me. Take care and may God bless you ...

Being against the war in Iraq is not Un-American. Iraq had nothing to do with 9-11. We should have concentrated on the Afghanitan conflict. Saudia Arabia provided the attackers, yet we just gave them new military aid. We, as Americans confuse countries with governments. While some leaders may back us, the people do not. Pakistan is a perfect example. We are in Iraq for oil, period. It just didn't happen as Cheney planned. Now they can wait for a new president and they will look either way. Bush Sr. did it in Somalia.

Complain all you want but Yahoo Answers appears to be ran without actual consideration of the actual posts, somebody redflags you and you automatically get a rap on the knuckles.
I hope you got a lot of money to finance your legal battle against Yahoo!!

Everyone should support our troops! People dont have to like it but since they are over there, they should get our support. I was driving through our town yesterday and there was a mom and her 2 kids (one in her teens and one about 7) standing on a corner across from our military base holding signs that said "honk if you support our troops" and "my brother is defending your freedom." People were honking and waving - me included. I saw one car drive off the Army Base and as it passed the family on the corner, the passenger in that car flipped the family off!! That young boy looked completely devastated and I was heartbroken for him. All he was doing was showing his support for his brother and some jerk had the nerve to give that little boy the bird! I was in shock!! People may not like the war or the fact that we are over there - but we are. Our troops need all the support, thanks and prayers that they can get and then some!

Hmm....It might just be that they pulled your question because it wasn't really a question. Of course, there are a lot of questions on here that aren't really questions so I can't see why they would pull yours. I really hope that they didn't pull it just because you are pro-soldiers. That would be very uncalled for. Could also be that the anti-war crowd "report abuse"d the heck out of your post just because that's what they'd do...who knows....good luck figuring it out. Whatever happens I'd like to here about it so i'm adding you as a contact.

I guarantee you that the Yahoo Answers team did NOT read the violation report. It was probably someone (deadbeat) that is un-American that doesn't appreciate the rights & freedoms they have, and wanted to take away all of the support for our troops away. Whoever they are, should join Cindy Shehan & the rest of the un-Americans and go to Iraq w/the insurgents. I don't care if you are Democrat or Republican; if you don't support our troops (your brothers, sisters, aunts, uncles, fathers, mothers, cousins) then you have no right to be an American. These people fight & die for you and to not support them is to be ungrateful & disrespectful to their memory.

Welcome to Yahoo! Answers. Too be very frank, I'm not surprised.
I guess I had answered that question as well. Yahoo! has a major drawback called trolls, who report any random post they see and get it deleted. I seriously hope Yahoo! fix this major "bug" called trolls.

Not that I am against you posting that, believe me, I fully support it. But, if you posted it here, they might have took it off because it wasn't a question. I don't know for sure, that would just be my guess.

This person should report abuses on the military men. In a way, your military men are being abused. Think of it.
