while i dont like the way that the protest was organised, i support the motivation people had to protest on anzac day.

Anzac day disgusts me. How dear the government, RSA etc re-write history. Its not even like everyone had a choice to fight. How many men were drafted and killed, wounded or mentally scarred from fighting in a rich man's war?

my grandad fought and was wounded in the pacific, and many of his friends died. If he was still alive he'd probably be pretty pissed off right now. But that doesnt make war right or honorable. My tupuna also fought against the colonial troops in the North Island. I guess, that history doesn't count.
