At the beginning of a Prime Original movie, “Tank” last night. Forgot who it was referred to.
“The only ones that will see an end to wars, are all dead”.
There will always be one we can join, if not we will create one, for greed and thievery.
And the ones that declare them and send us to die, never get near any action or danger. Just sit and wait for the bank accounts to grow, wave the flags and shout USA. (Now they want to stop helping the vets that suffer mentally and physically, while waving the flag and shouting USA)
All this destryctiin, lives and money, to save American lives from death of drugs. (Sure, it’s the drugs) But guns, oh hell no. As the late great Jesus Kirk said, a few kids dying is worth the freedom of the 2nd amendment.
How about a few people dying from drugs is worth getting high and forgetting how fucked we are.
