Veteran's Day

For those who served in all of our wars, justified or otherwise, thank you. Living, dead, or somewhere in between, I still say thank you. Without you stepping up and doing what is asked for, we wouldn't necessarily be free enough to debate whether a war was justified or not.

Even now, we're making more battle scarred and wounded veterans. For those politicians who treat our military and veterans like throwaway cheesburger wrappers - fuck you. Chickenhawks get a front row seat in the hell of choice of the nearest veteran, IMO. War is not a game, with little pieces to move around on a board for fun and profit. Wars should be swift, terrible, necessary, and very, very rare.

I wonder, now, where are the parades we used to have?
