As a graduate of Cabrini, I am incredibly disappointed that our students were involved in a protest that received local news coverage.
I live in an area dominated by all branches of the military. Would you like to come down here and protest at one of our colleges? Are you still protesting now that Iraqi-Americans are dancing in the streets of Dearborn, Michigan and Iraqis, themselves, are parading around with pictures of our president in their hands? I am sorry that innocent civilians were killed in the liberation of Iraq, but sometimes lives have to be lost to save the lives of others. Ultimately, that is what our military is trained to do. How quickly we forget our own losses of 9/11 – and Operation Iraqi Freedom had everything to do with taking out terrorist regimes.
Hats off to those flying the American flag and supporting our Commander-in-Chief. I would have been right there with you.
