Military fumeral Texas style

I got an email about this and decided to check it out. It is inspiring, to say the least.

Edit: Obviously I mistyped the title. It should read "Military funeral Texas style."

One more reason I'm proud to live in Texas. We get slammed a lot for being backward, ignorant cowboy knuckle-dragging types, but that's not the kind of people I know and love here in this great state. Its' folks like this that make up the majority in this great state.

I've heard a lot of the Texan jokes, but in my personal experience I don't think I have ever met a Texan that I didn't like. The majority of Texans I have met just generally seem to be real down to earth people with good morals and ethics, and common sense when it comes to what's right and wrong.

I wasn't real crazy about LBJ, but then I never met him, so he doesn't count.

Texans are good peeps .

I think this says a lot about the town and it's size. 1200 people is the size of the town near where I grew up. I think people are not meant to live 1 million to the square mile. There is more of small town America(and Canada) than people think. We are the majority in this nation ,not the retards on the coasts that are on tv all the time. Small tons America is what keeps this country going and fed

Hey - I live in a very small town on the coast. I've never lived more than 15 miles from the coast and I've always lived in small towns.

I agree Kevin (so long as said people are as open minded and accepting as most of the guys on here). I think it would make an interesting discussion the different thoughts and points of view on this. (not on a web board though, email and forums are far to easily misinterpreted IMO).
