Whiskey Tango Foxtrot Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 Gary Sinise talks new initiative for children of fallen vets: 'The cost of freedom is very high' The actor exclusively announced on Fox & Friends Monday morning that the Gary Sinise Foundation will be taking thousands of children and their guardians to Disney World. "One of the things we're going to be doing with the kids is to bring them to Disney World," Sinise told Fox & Friends. The longtime supporter of U.S. veterans admitted the trip is going to be "very expensive" but there's no price that can be placed on "honor[ing] these kids." "[We want] to show them our love and to remind them that we care and to express our gratitude and appreciation for their sacrifice," Sinise said. "They each lost a parent -- a mother, a father -- in the war and we can't forget these folks," he continued, "The cost of freedom is very high [and] it's evidenced in military cemeteries all over the world and these are the kids that stay behind." http://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/2018/03/26/gary-sinise-talks-new-initiative-for-children-fallen-vets-cost-freedom-is-very-high.html 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whiskey Tango Foxtrot Posted March 26, 2018 Author Share Posted March 26, 2018 Sinise is a solid American, last year he bought a plane trip for veterans to go to the memorial on veterans day, hosted an event for them. Think I know where my taxable charity donation will be going this year... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
f7ben Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 Sinise should use his platform to speak about how the corrupt US government abuses its military and its evil exploits around the world rob countless children both US and foreign of their mothers and fathers.......maybe then I would have a little respect for him.

Giving them handjobs after their fathers get their legs blown off isnt shit. Its fucking garbage. He should use his pulpit to attack the evil US government and speak out against any military action that is not in the defense of this country. Now go fuck yourself you bootlicking pussy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whiskey Tango Foxtrot Posted March 26, 2018 Author Share Posted March 26, 2018 I don't agree with lots of government policies. I'd say roughly half of my family and friends are military though, so yeah I support them! Doesn't make me a bootlicker... 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Platinum Contributing Member Highmark Posted March 26, 2018 Platinum Contributing Member Share Posted March 26, 2018 They all choose to serve for one reason or another. Whether we agree with the conflicts they are sent to does not diminish their service and sacrifice in my book. Thanks for posting about this charity. Good one to support. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spin_dry Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 I suppose Gary feels he’s doing something good. And so he is. The issue is that many of these wars have nothing to do with the “cost of freedom”. It’s just bullshit. Bullshit of the absolute worst kind.

Jesus man how do you come up with that shit? Decent trade? How about we just want to help and thank you for your families sacrifice.

Just something nice, a celebrity foundation is doing to show support for the military! I was hopeful y'all could think past the obvious government fuckeries and just say "cool, good for him, nice gesture". Fuck me running!... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
