Memorial Day 2009
Monday, May 25th, 2009
I in no way would ever do or say anything to dishonor the actual members of the American military. They do a perfectly good job themselves sometimes. Do not mistake what I just wrote as a blanket statement about every single member of the military throughout history as you would also be wrong. I am merely saying that I morally disaprove actions that involve killing people.
Ever year you get the flag wavers who praise the military and while they truly believe that they are behind a just cause involving just actions, make no mistake, there is nothing just about most of America’s “police actions”. I say police actions because most military skirmishes have been done so without a declaration of war. War has not been declared since World War II. Ever.
Rather than spewing forth a bunch of opinion I thought I would just direct you to some interesting reading to ponder over before you bar-b-que today.
