We weren't allowed to see our dead soldiers returned so that we can pay
respect to them but the media wants to sell papers and TV time so they
pander to a certain group. I guess the 'vote' is more important than paying
homage to real heroes, inventors, scientists, etal.


Showing dead soldiers is not good the US government. It raises the
question of war and hurts miliary recruitment. The government is all
about power and can care less about your emotions. Comparing soldiers
to Jackson is like comparing apples to oranges.
