Do you say Happy Memorial Day - mizzoumurfkc KC - 5/31 16:43:17

Of course. Why would you not?(nm) - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 5/31 16:53:13

That figures - mizzoumurfkc KC - 5/31 17:12:37

Sure, why not? (nm) - Outsider MU - 5/31 16:49:08

Because it's not a happy day for them... - mizzoumurfkc KC - 5/31 17:10:11

People remember loved ones they’ve lost in various ways(nm) - Sal CMSU - 5/31 17:54:39

It’s also a day of celebration and honor. Do you not - Outsider MU - 5/31 17:14:51

It is not about being happy anyone died - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 5/31 17:13:14

Could you explain the "sacrifice" part? - Ace AU - 5/31 16:37:24

Human sacrifices to the religion of statism(nm) - El-ahrairah BAMA - 5/31 18:07:37

To sacrifice is to give up something of value for a - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 5/31 16:43:11

i see those as risks of the job. Most of us have jobs. Some - Ace AU - 5/31 17:25:38

A risk can most certainly involve sacrifice - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 5/31 18:11:53

No, they are not mutually exclusive. But using the cliche of - Ace AU - 5/31 18:16:38

Nothing makes my skin crawl like the phrase - ummmm MU - 5/31 16:48:18

"for the greater good"...4tigs sounds like a socialist(nm) - tigerdb MU - 5/31 17:12:12

Because you don’t understand collective purpose, - Spanky KU - 5/31 16:57:37

We're all in this together, huh? (nm) - ummmm MU - 5/31 17:08:15

We are a society, not an individual.(nm) - Spanky KU - 5/31 17:25:09

A Great Society. (nm) - ummmm MU - 5/31 17:29:44

Just a society(nm) - Spanky KU - 5/31 17:34:37

Guilty as charged. (nm) - ummmm MU - 5/31 17:00:05

And yet most of us seem to get it and - Outsider MU - 5/31 16:56:38

I don't understand its usage, for the reasons I just noted. - ummmm MU - 5/31 16:59:38

As I said, many of us know what and why - Outsider MU - 5/31 17:02:50

And you have other groups of people pursuing their own - ummmm MU - 5/31 17:10:09

I find that a bit excessive - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 5/31 16:54:07

Exactly, to each his/her own. (nm) - ummmm MU - 5/31 16:57:14

I must assume you cringe if wedding vows include - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 5/31 17:16:32

People don't get married for the greater good, and if they - ummmm MU - 5/31 17:22:24

They pledge to remain together for better or worse - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 5/31 17:27:00

Yes, it is a declaration of the individual. It is an express - ummmm MU - 5/31 17:29:13

So you don't see that vow as to the other person, but as the - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 5/31 17:31:47
