Think about it...

It's poppy time again, and once again we have the irony of this basically peaceful symbol of remembrance creating much argument, and indeed vitriol, on social media between those who object to it being worn on the one hand, and those who consider that everybody should wear one on the other.  What seems to get lost in all the shouting is that those who the poppy represents gave their lives so that we should have the freedom to choose whether to wear one or not.  I choose to, but I will not foist my views on you - the choice is yours.
