    ok

    so I just have this to say. I just had a loss in my family ( not immediate - my sisters husbands father) this morning. An amazing man, he raised a man that I am proud to call my brother-n-law and one that loves my sister. 30 years in the military, reached the top of the chain and until his dying day was still military to the bone.

    Basically we ( family ) are all pissed as fuck. My hatred for this countries military policies and treatment of their soldiers is beyond a boiling point.

    He was a 2 term Vietnam Vet. back in his early military career and had f-in agent orange dropped 100 yards from him daily. The Hospice worker said this was her 4th agent orange patient in 4 months. It wasn't pretty. One day he was fine then the other he dropped with huge tumors all over his body. It took 7 days.

    So all you right wing, spread democracy, pro military hoo haas, kill them all, we are #1 can F--k right off. Because in the end, the Govt. treats those men as just numbers. Sorry for venting.
