He was a singer/dancer/entertainer.
A self mutilating, accused pedophile who in the last decade or so became a parody of himself.
I'm not even going to mention his name because I'm sick of hearing it.
He never served his country.
He never put his life in danger for anyone.
He never came under enemy fire or never had to fire back in his own defense or in the defense of others.
He never saved a life.
He died of an apparent drug overdose.
I'm disgusted at the amount of coverage given to this freak, and even more disgusted that the first 10 minutes of the news today was about him.
There was a Ramp Ceremony today in Kandahar for Master Corporal Pat Audet and Corporal Martin Joannette, killed in a chopper incident yesterday.
Yesterday... while a procession passed along The Highway of Heroes.
Cpl. Nick Bulger was killed last week by an I.E.D. in Afghanistan.
CHCH News in Hamilton pushed the Ramp Ceremony story back until after the 'first glance' at the weather. Even then, they only gave it one minute.
One minute.
Shameful.
To the families, comrades and friends of Master Corporal Pat Audet, Corporal Martin Joannette and Corporal Nick Bulger, I am very sorry for your loss, and saddened that a celebrity spectacle denied these men the respect they should have received.
They served their Country with honour.
They put their lives in danger for everyone.
They came under enemy fire and had to fire back in their own defense and the defense of others.
They saved lives.
They died with honour and dignity.
Corporal Nick Bulger Master Corporal Pat Audet and Corporal Martin Joannette
"At the going down of the sun, and in the morning, we will remember them."
Lest we forget.
