I haven't heard that. I have heard similar things, such as, regardless of how you feel about this war, you should support the troops. I think I heard that sentiment from friends rather than media. I have also had the thought in my own head, that what good is it to protest it now...how can that change things? I think that is just me trying to process all that is going on in the world. I think its good that people are expressing their differing opinions on the war. I sat at MTSU's anti-war rally and observed both sides, and if I heard someone saying "It was fine to protest the war, but now that it has started we should all support it", I would defintely not agree.
