My dad is a member of the Patriot Guard here in Oklahoma and he attends funerals of Veterans and active duty soldiers about 2 or 3 days a week on his Harley. Thursday he went to the airport and escorted the body of one of the soldiers that was killed at Ft Hood. Dad said there was about 25 of them and it was very emotional...
Fast forward to this morning......
The funeral was today and the Patriot Guard was riding in formation on the way to the funeral home and they passed that group of protesters from Kansas. Dad said there was about 4 of them and it just made his blood boil.... Oklahoma passed a law that says there cannot be any protest within 1/2 mile of a funeral.... Pop said the funeral was very sad because the soldier was 22 and was just married 2 months ago...
I have tons of respect for the Patriot Guard and the cause they are serving...
