True True

That prophet so and so sry I’m too lazy to reference back to my last entry to get the name right, left some valid points in her notes on my last diary entry.  Yes, war does in fact effect everyone, not just the soldiers fighting the war.  Yes, it is extremely difficult to get a point accross to the gov. or the President, but these are not the points I was trying to make in my entry.  I was saying that merely, if you want to protest the war then go ahead, well maybe I wasn’t saying that, I am now, go ahead and protest the war, protest the gov. and the President, but back off the military, that was the point I was trying to get across but was to stressed out and frustrated to get it across.  I know the Vietnam war had nothing to do with getting hippies their weed, again that was just my anger coming out of me through the keyboard to the screen, if that makes any sense.  I was complaining about “hippies” because “hippies” made up the vast majority of the protestors during the Vietnam war, so I took my anger out on them and still do.  I mean yea, you wanna protest the war that’s fine, but what gave anybody any fucking right to spit on our soldiers, and to deny them jobs, and call them names and so on and so forth, as if the military had anything to do with anything, they only did what they were told to do, nothing more, they got no respect for their actions and quite frankly that pisses me off.  To think that anyone in this country would actually, literally spit on a soldier period, I consider that treachery. Now in any other country like Iraq where the military did nothing but evil doings of what their tyrant leader told them and enjoyed it, then yea I can understand spitting on THEM, but our military, who does nothing more then stand up for this country and fight for it’s freedom on a daily basis, that’s a whole different ball game.  I’m more of an “eye for an eye” type person rather then a “turn the other cheek” type guy and I’d would like nothing more then placing every single person who ever spit on a soldier when they returned from war, whoever spit, slapped, poked at, joked about, denied a job to, or anything else, on the stand for treachery, and prosecute them over and over again until they did some good time in prison, or just were kicked out of the country, but now that’s just my opinion, well actually it’s not my opinion involves a lot more violence but I’m trying to be just a tad bit fair here so…
