Tea Bagger - "Person Who Cannot Afford Health Care Will Just Have To Die"

9. My Attitude Changed After Going To Vietnam

I am the kind of person who relocates spiders to other places when I find them in the home. Black Widows and Brown Recluses (thank God I have never encountered one yet) excepted. I don't even like to snuff yellow jackets either. And before I went to Vietnam I could not envision hurting anyone. I never had to when I was there but I also realized I might have to and was hopefully ready and trained to do it.

Sadly there is a point when you have to do something you do not want to. People will cross the line and you have to decide.
I see us as being in a war for the country and what kind of country it will be. Denying vulnerable populations the basic necessities of life and even enjoying it crosses a line for me. And I see that attitude in tea baggers and a lot of gun nuts. If we do not go on the offensive with these people and go after them they will eat us alive because we fail to respond. Some situations are not negotiable.

My position is that you really cannot stand by and allow denial of services like the tea baggers demand. If it takes denying them what they say they will deny others so be it. And right now we have a situation where people will be denied what allows them to continue to live. We have to respond to that attitude and a very aggressive and unmerciful way as far as I am concerned.

As an example this food stamp cut is a critically serious thing. We should be going ballistic over it it is that important.
