Flags on Labour Day tells me the people don't know the difference between Labour Day, which is in September, and Memorial Day, which is in May.
Memorial Day is not a day for celebration, it's a day for paying respect to the ultimate sacrifice made by soldiers. Labour Day is about celebrating labour, i.e. workers. Of course most people do celebrate both days, especially if they have the day off of work, but grilling burgers on Memorial Day and knowing the meaning behind the day is not as egregious, IMO, as waving military flags on Labour Day. Just sounds like someone is confused or not educated.
The real labor day is on may 1st. This one's a knock off
It's not a knock-off, it's an intentional misdirect. President Grover Cleveland and Congress wanted a workers' holiday that wasn't associated with the radical, socialist-flavoured May Day, so they went with the safer, domesticated Knights of Labor version instead.
People yelling "happy Memorial Day!" is so frigging weird.
Happy 9/11!
Ya we don't say Happy Remembrance day on Nov 11 (marks the end of WW1) in Canada.
We do a minute of silence at 11AM and wear poppies in memory Canadians who died in Flanders Field.
Yes martial flags are flown; at epitaphs; during ceremonies; above the few remaining survivors forced to remember horrors that we must never forget.
US military culture is disgusting. Happy to hear it's not everyone.
