Well, the Khan family wanted to call out Trump's Islamophobia and show that there are many Muslim Americans who are loyal, patriotic and even sacrifice their lives to their country. That's the issue.
Trump, being the thin-skinned punk, just can't let things roll over, and it's off to the races!
I agree Trump is thin-skinned punk or bully, whatever you want to call him, I perhaps would agree.
But I also don't believe Khan should consider Hillary Clinton as a healer LOL what a joke
From a US veteran to Mr. Khan, your son sacrificed his life for his country and is a hero. You however, sold your dark soul to a lady who voted to send your son to his death and you are trying (and no doubt will) to profit from your son's death....shameful.

A typical Rush Limbaugh/Michael Savage talking point.
The wars you reference were started by President Bush.
Mr. Khan did not sell anything ... he expressed his constitution right to voice his opinion.
It's not like making a few bucks for posing nude in a girl-on-girl photo shoot.

Which is why I wouldn't vote for Bush, Cheney or Hillary. The reality stands that Hillary's action to vote to send troops to Iraq was the proximate clause of Mr. Khan's son, Trump had nothing to do with it and Khan is trying and no doubt will profit greatly from his son's death.

Why Mr. Khan's son was fighting in a war is not the point of his speaking at the convention which is a point that Trump fans are deliberately ignoring. His speech was to address the anti-Muslim bigotry that Trump likes to spread like cancer. What better person to illustrate the contributions made to America by those of the Muslim religion than could be made by a very articulated and well educated Gold Star parent. And you're being ridiculous to thing he's going to profit for his son's death. No one is paying him.

I doubt Khan was criticizing his son going to war, although most likely he was at odds with it, his criticism of Trump was because he and his son as muslims fought, died and paid the ultimate sacrifice for this great country.
But Trumps rethoric is very negative and divisive towards muslims and I suppose Mr. Khan took umbrage and from his perspective who can blame him.......?
I'm not sure why that is so hard to understand for so many.

Then you'd better not vote for Trump/Pence either. Mike Pence also voted for the AUMF as a Congressman. And he is apparently going to be the acting Prez if Donnie is elected since he has said the VP will run domestic and foreign policy while he's off tweeting or whatever.
"Quick, roundup some vets and Gold Star families to make me look better"
"Donald Trump won't even take the time to meet with families he's cruelly insulted".
You can spin just about anything.
