Hang on a tad . Just because so mAny people believe in this doesn’t mean other people cant have opposite views , and as soon as you want to silence the opposition you are killing free speech which is exactly whAt you guys who do this remembrance stuff say that’s what these soldiers died for and also this forum would be worthless !!
I did say all ...
Why ? To stop the free speech ?However in a specific part of the forum a mod should have stepped in by now.

Respect the forum and it’s members by keeping disrespect in the pub.
What were you saying about respect ?Fuck off jetjock
What were you saying about respect ?
If you’re not into forums that allow free speech , go and find one that only allows a one sided argument and keep your head buried in the sand if that’s what you want .
The witch hunt that prevails after Engineer posts something controversial is amazingly supported and yet it’s exactly what the nazis allegedly did in WW2 , shutting down free speech and persecuting those that dare speak against them .
That’s how the nazi party was started , we are told .
Talking of being ashamed , you guys that use foul and abusive language because someone has different views should be ashamed of yourselves .
It’s a forum FFSjetcock you absolute cock.
This is a bike forum. The OP posted in a regional section about his ride to pay his respects.
You have now further polluted this thread with reference to Nazis!
Where is your respect for other forum members!
It’s called pointless ceremony because we always forget!!!!!!

We ought to have a kunts section....there are 2 founder members it would seem. They could wreck each others threads with abandon.
Godwins law in action.
Yeap which just shows that the Nazis were exhibiting the same human traits as the rest of us can show from time to time . But the Nazis had so much propaganda against them that we associate just them with the trait but not ourselves .
Cognitive dissonance
Another witch hunt ?The pair of you should be thoroughly ashamed of yourselves.
You have demonstrated nothing but toxic and corrosive sentiment, added nothing, and now hide behind 'free speech' to attempt to dignify your appalling behaviour in a thread about one mans personal gesture showing respect for the sacrifice of others.
Neither of you have earned, nor deserve, any such respect from decent members of this forum, which would be improved by your departure.
In Lewes, there was a remembrance event in true Lewes style.
235 men and one woman walked to the war memorial with a burning torch to represent someone who had died in WWI from the town and who was named on the war memorial. Each person walked from the house the person lived in and when all 236 were at the memorial, their name, date and cause of death and age at death were read out, at which point the person representing them doused their flame and disappeared behind a cordon of women wearing black, who represented the people left behind. It was an incredible and powerful tribute to those who lost their lives in an utterly pointless and brutal war.
Here's what it looked like:
Great post Auwyn, didn't know that had been their 'remembrance' in Lewes (?) Powerful, poignant, fitting.
