323. you are confusing

Dec 2014

you attack our outrage as coming from gentle sheltered souls, I was in Vietnam 13 months, grew up when people were getting lynched by other people because of their skin color, and knew about it then. Also many people on here are very experienced in the application of outrage at the RIGHT group(s) You attack us, then the BUSHCO bloodletting machine and then us for not stopping the bloodletting... I do not think that Obama had any choice but to say what he did because of the position held by the current Democratic Party in the political spectrum. You have to realize that the people who did these horrible things to innocent men, women and CHILDREN, believe me, I've seen horrible, and this was horrible, are not patriots. Sharpen you skills, you confuse me and I feel uncomfortable with even agreeing with you when you might be right. Stay out of civil rights, you're not ready yet.
