that only veterans are allowed to have an opinion on the war?
Isn't that inconsistent?

You can support a war without being a vet. In ww2 millions of people supported fighting the war and never put on a uniform.

It isn't inconsistent of them to say only veterans should have an opinion on the war, what's inconsistent is that most of the people on the Left who say that are not veterans.
It's also inconsistent to say that and repeatedly attempt to sabotage the absentee ballots of active duty soldiers because of petty rule differences between what the state may require and what the federal government requires the military to provide.
Finally, it shows a total lack of understanding why most soldiers and sailors volunteer to serve. The reason is so that people who choose not to do not have to.

Yes.
But no one is perfect. We all make errors. That's life. It's the best way to learn. I am in favor of responsible free speech, meaning I don't like it when people put others down personally. We should try to be as objective as you are here.

Isn't that a bit like saying that 'Criminals have the only valid opinion about the Justice System'?
