This post is not news, so its posted in the wrong section of the board. 2. You should never try to impose your beliefs on other people and not expect some to disagree with you . 3. You have lost touch with reality this is the internet and this board don't have sound, so its always silent 365 days a year, 24 hours a day, even if a site has sound on the internet you can just turn the volume down or mute the browser tab or volume and it want have none, but this site never had sound to begin with. Are you done? I made a thread in the correct forum reminding those people that cared that on November 11th 2018 it is customary to hold at 11:00 a.m. a two (2) minutes silence. I did it yesterday, my family did it, billions of people around the world did it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Normally i dont say very much everyday i hardly talk out loud to anyone , because i am alone most of the time so i dont see a point in it .. If you came to my house and could not shut up more than 2 minutes a year.. id tell you that you would have to leave . They already had a celebration for World War One earlier on this year and that's not what Veterans Day is about any way in my country. Its for honoring all military veterans regardless of witch war they was in or even if they not been to war . It's a holiday for those that served .. Every year people who work for the Government get that day off with pay . Its not celebrated just every 100 years, it celebrated every year for all veterans . https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Veterans_Day Quote At the urging of major U.S. veteran organizations, Armistice Day was renamed Veterans Day in 1954. Veterans Day is distinct from Memorial Day, a U.S. public holiday in May. Veterans Day celebrates the service of all U.S. military veterans, while Memorial Day honors those who died while in military service. There is another military holiday, Armed Forces Day, a minor U.S. remembrance that also occurs in May, which honors those currently serving in the U.S. military. Only in other countries do they still have Armistice Day that just celebrate the end of World War One , they stop that in 1954 in the USA and made it for all vets . And in some countries its not even celebrated, your on the World wide web were things are not the same for everyone. If you look here only in the UK is there a tradition of 2 minutes silence, no were else do that, every country, celebrates it different. Some dont do it on Nov the 11 they do it on the nearest Sunday.. And they stop it doing in the UK for a while and they revived it in the 1990s. Quote Wreath-laying ceremonies, usually organised by local branches of the Royal British Legion, are observed on Armistice Day at most war memorials across the UK at 11 am on 11 Novembe] with two minutes of silence observed; a custom which had lapsed before a campaign for its revival began in the 1990s https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remembrance_Day#United_Kingdom https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Armistice_Day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of those soldiers saved other soldiers lives, those soldiers, lost limbs, went deaf, went blind and when they returned were stuck in hospitals far away from the public gaze. Now when you are attacked you call the Police, what if said screw him/her we can't be bothered. I replied to you logically based on your own statements, but all you do is to cry instead.

vitorio Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 You should commemorate Veterans Day in every country. This are the people who shared their blood for his country. Maybe for the right/wrong cause, but sacrified his/her blood for the country, wherever may be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steven36 Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 Celebrating the end of World War 1 on NOV 11th is imaginary, because that was not when that war ended.. it was something made up by King George V to do this . Quote In November 1919, King George V issued a proclamation that called for a two-minute silence https://www.bbc.co.uk/newsround/40156698 .This is really when it happen Quote The Treaty of Versailles was signed on June 28, 1919, marking the official end of World War I. Nonetheless, the armistice date of November 11, 1918, remained in the public imagination as the date that marked the end of the conflict. https://www.history.com/topics/holidays/history-of-veterans-day The Festival of Versailles 2018 in France on June 29th 2018 was the real celebration of World War 1 ending. http://en.chateauversailles.fr/festival-versailles-2018 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To pay tribute to all those Men and women and even Children around the world that put their backsides on the line so we have a better life. A good reminder. Another great reminder for us is to pay the sincerest, deepest, the most meaningful and fruitful respect for our veteran's sacrifices by not starting another war. Otherwise, it becomes as meaningful as "our thoughts and prayers, etc." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steven36 Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 The fact is people tell you lies all your life , they say theirs a Santa Claus its a lie , They say it's a Easter Bunny it's a lie , they say believe in the Bible when King James rewrote it , And they say World War 1 ended on Nov 11 and that was a lie Even after the Treaty of Versailles on June 28, 1919 that ended the war was signed it didn't go in effect tell Jan 1920 and its was all based on a Lie it was not the war that ended all wars the Germans were really pissed off at it, because they did not help write it but were forced to sign it and no wonder they started World War 2 all trough history it's a war going on somewhere.
