Enjoy the freedom of speech others have made sacrificed for.
I certainly understand the zeal of being in the military and being an American in times like these.
I am invested in this country. I earned my freedom of speech the hard way...I served in the military for twenty years.
I was regular military.
My life was a "military life" for twenty years.
I believe the freedom in this country is dependent on a well-informed public, able to govern themselves based on their desire to get the real story and not be spoon fed garbage by the media or the biased rhetoric of businessmen who find themselves in control of the foreign policies of this country.
There are dispicable overt forms of terrorism and there are forms of insidious terrorism of a sedated society which are just as dispicable.
Hopefully, the "sedated" in this country are experiencing an awakening.
This is much more serious than horses pulling carts.
The deaths of Americans, the deaths of Iraqis, the shifting of strong moral positions.....Good Lord, I hope we all can ENDURE this and get informed, stay informed and become more aware.
You speak of 3rd world countries....well, I can see why you'd use that _expression_ to describe people from countries other than ours, however, there is only one world here'bouts.
I hope it goes well for you and you can save a horse.
