Screw that Anti War Label, I'm Anti UNNECESSARY War |
|
I'm not some old hippie sitting in the lotus position in a field of daisies saying make love not war, I'm a pissed off old man because two thousand and six hundred young Americans have DIED IN VAIN.
If war is needed, who can argue with it? But this war was not needed, all those thousands of people who died DIDN'T HAVE TO DIE.
If need be, I'll pick up my rifle and join in the damned war, if I thought it was necessary, and so would any good American, but this is not a just war, this is a money making death machine about to explode into utter chaos.
When they toss the words anti war at us they mean it as an insult, to call us weak, cowardly, unmanly even. Screw that, we aren't anti war, we are anti bush war.
Always throw their idiotic labels and insults right back in their faces.

2. Yes, I just posted this on another thread |
|
Who wants to support an illegal invasion and illegal occupation. I would have supported stopping Hitler, but going to war with Iraq, no, it was based on a lie and it was wrong in 2003 and it's still wrong now.

our local group is called "Citizens for Peace" but I always say I would have preferred "Citizens for Truth".

say something like that to make sense? Oh yeah, they voted for it and now they are stuck trying to live with their vote. If they had half a brain they would have stuck with the we were lied to excuse. That at least doesn't make them look stupid. They all have blood on their hands because they were more interested in covering their asses from the 'week' charges.

5. I look at it the same way I do personal violence |
|
I am against it except in the case of self-defense and those rare moments when it really is necessary to prevent something worse.
I would defend myself and my family/friends when I need to - most people don't realize that you seldom need to if you know how to actually talk about problems.

for the future of our country if need be.
I want my children to be able to raise their own children in a peaceful land, but of course, that is the wish of all mothers... which is the reason why unnecessary war is so devastating.
