7. Facts & Truth Never Worked Against The Enemy In Vietnam.

Of course I am not talking about a shooting war. My metaphor is that emotions will enter into it at some point. Just facts and truth like we have used in the past has not worked all that well. All I am saying is that you have to double down and go after these people. No prisoners. We just pull punches. We have to go for the jugular no matter how bad it hurts them. And we have to continue on the offensive until we neutralize them.

I understand. However being an Vietnam change me. Even though I am a pacifist at heart and was when I went to Vietnam, I learned that there are some people you just have to attack until they are vanquished.

When you dave someone who is telling you that they want you gone BECAUS YOU EXIST AT ALL takes the situation to another level. That means they have upped the ante and will NOT leave you to exist.
