There is nothing happy about 90,000 people being killed because of a Japanese government who refused to surrender. It was a necessary thing to do to save many, many, other lives, but forgive me if I find no happiness in understanding the horror of war and the pain it brings upon people...even if those people are your enemy.

I think that would depend on your point of view. If you were in one of the fourteen divisions assigned to land on Kyushu in Operation Olympic, I don't think you'd find yourslef wallowing in sorrow.

It's not a day for cake and ice cream. But it's also not a day to walk around in mourning. Japan awoke a sleeping giant.

If your alive because they died, I’d say there’s lot to be happy about.

Besides, “Happy Hiroshima Day” besides being just rhyming words, it was an itsy-bitsy protest to all of those knuckleheads who use this day to throw blood on the Enola Gay, protest outside the Pentagon (Why AREN’T they at DNC HQ? HST was a Democrat, right), and basically use this day as an opportunity to trash the memory of the people who made tough decision to save our country and the lives of our citizens.

Damn. I’m so fired up I’m gonna go have a steak for dinner. Maybe I FIRE up the grill and BURN it till it’s CHARRED or maybe instead I’ll just NUKE it in the microwave.

God spare us from humorless people
