Do you want to know what terrorism is?

Dropping hundreds of 2,000-pound bombs into a crowded city at night. Over and over.

That's fucking terrorism.

And we let it happen.

Never again. Vote tomorrow.

Never again!

1. Your right, that is terrorism.
But sadly, americans don't hold their government to the same standards we hold other governments, individuals or groups.

3. Indeed, my dear Redstone..........
That is terrorism.....

Can you imagine us having such bombs dropped on us?

I can, and it terrifies me no end.......

It needs to stop, especially since it is being done in our name!

4. Like I said, the message we can send is: It stops here.
I expanded that idea here:

I should be a political consultant...but no candidate would have the guts to say such things, unfortunately.

5. It's not that
candidates don't have the guts, it's that they DO have the brains. Imagine getting a flyer in the mail that says we've been terrorists. People would just get pissed and vote GOP like a lot of idiots did after they saw Fahrenheit 9/11.

I do like your "It Stops Here" idea. Nothing more needs to be said because average Americans can't possibly take anymore of this regime. "ISH" sounds like we're being saved. Roll with it!

Hence my name. War is only acceptable for self-defense. There were no WMDs but even if there had been, they weren't a threat to us.
