Still seems like Game Playing about a tragic and depressing era in our history
BTW I have military in my family and they agree with me
As one who has served in combat, i can say without qualification, better playing than experiencing the reality. i would have given a lot just so that my son didn’t have to experience the same thing in Afghanistan along with the nightmares and necessary alterations to his life so that he can function without wanting to shoot up some of the a$$#0le$ making derogatory statements about the military and US veterans.
—Once again Bob, i don’t place you in that category. You are being honest as far as i can tell, and i’m answering as honestly as i am able. i’m sorry that you can’t understand, but i certainly do not hold that against you. i can’t speak for your veteran relatives. They have their own stories that may be the same, less or worse than what i went through.
Maybe, just maybe, another person will see the futility of the whole thing, and put a damper on those boldly proclaiming that “Civil War II” is about to start.
Maybe those people need the education about what war and combat entails. Better that they learn BEFORE the real bullets start to fly. Maybe it will prevent those bullets from flying.
Good, bad, or indifferent, it is NOT a good thing to forget about our history lest we repeat it and the mistakes that lead to it.
