    to remember the reason we have these freedoms....

    we have seen waaaaay too many of these in the last 50 or so years.....

    Time for all us regular people throughout the world to say “Enough!” to the elite who call on us to make the ultimate sacrifice for whatever serves their purpose rather than ours.

    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.

    Im tired of commemorating our war dead. Not because i have a problem with them, per se, but for the reason Carl just gave. When you sell patriotism to kids, pump them up with talk of badassery, then equip them with destructive toys and send them to do goon work...it really fucks them up!

    Today i honor the men and women who had to deal with situations that no human should ever have to deal with, but also those who come home to a country that strips their benefits, offers empty, mildly guilt-ridden and monotonous "Thank you for your service!"'es...but backs away from wanting to hear anything less than the feelgood, flag waving, eagle soaring bullshit, then the government/terrorist/mob bosses who sent them somehow redirects the money set aside to help these people when they need it most.

    So, if we are honoring fallen soldiers, then we should honor ALL of them! Including the ones we were fighting against (because we are kicking THEIR door in and killing THEIR children in THEIR home), and the ones who came home damaged and blew their own brains out in the bathroom because of the inhumane and unnatural things they were ordered to do and see. All this glorification of war is pure bullshit! I dont see war as a half hour, saturday morning cartoon of heroes and villians. Its death and corruption. Thats all. A fucking spiritual wasteland rooted in evil, but packaged as holy and right.

    I honor the victims, the ones who lost the battle on foreign and domestic soil. Mankind should really learn to be better house guests on this earth, we serve no real purpose, we seem to not realize this fact.

    The answer to the question which Ms. Molloy asks is “Yes, they are too dumb.”

    Yes, but that's only because there are rough men who stand ready to do violence on the behalf of other people. The point of my first post in this thread is that all us rough men need to stand up and refuse to do violence on the behalf of anyone else.
