OMG! I was called "speckled face" and taunted a whole lot as a kid with this little verse: "I'd rather be dead than red on the head."

So what do I get to do to retaliate for all the horror I suffered?

Yes, but we weren't raised to see ourselves as “victims of all mankind's various prejudices” OR, more importantly, we grew up to realize that there are a lot of folks out there who resort to name-calling when they are too immature to go toe to toe on the basis of facts and education.

This “good American” received a half a million dollar education and a mid six-figure salary on our dime to come out with the under-developed character and intellect of a six year old. I'm somewhat disappointed in our vetting process for such a widely praised government program.

In the real world, medical school aspirants are screened for the possibility that they are unstable as the workload for a medical student can push some over the edge. Our so-called military experts are dropping the ball it seems.
