Murdered Soldier
-
For those of you who may not be aware a 25 year old, British soldier, father of young son, was driven over and hacked with knives the middle of a public street for being a member of the armed forces and serving his country. It infuriates me that extremists, who are also British citizens, justify this behaviour wrongly in the name of (any) religion.
As a member of the British forces I would like to say that we are PROUD to serve our country and our allies, even though as an individual I may not always agree with our methods, millions of people around the world are able to live their lives with human rights, protection and without fear.
This attack was barbaric, cowardly and as a country we are not afraid by this act of terrorism. It continues to astonish me how relatives (or friends) these murderers, who are also citizens of Britain, would know nothing of their plans, mental issues or make any attempt or to alert the authorities of any potential concerns.
My thoughts go out to the family and Drummer Lee Rigby.

My condolences for your loss

Condolences to the family. I apologise for my rant it just really angered me and I felt Lee Rigby deserved a voice that we are not afraid by these actions. It's just a sad when those who serve their country are targeted in a cold blood by their own citizens (especially when it’s wrongly in the name of a religion).
