what an absolutely depressing string (thread...i'm teasing, mr. emery)...
i must admit that i don't know as much about this situation as i should. i
don't watch the news, so i rely on other forms of media to get my information.
as a twist on this whole thing, i am taking jnf's question out of context.
it would be easy for me to say that i would take a bullet for anyone i wanted
to mention.
yeah, jg, if i see you about to get gunned down, i'd jump in front of you and
take the bullet for you.
see how easy that was?
now, i think the easiest part of that statement was the fact that i am
guessing that neither of us will be put in such a situation as to make good
of my statement.
there really *are* people i would die for. but they don't know that. and
you guys probably think i'm just a silly girl spouting off about something
she doesn't understand.
so, why is america overseas, blowing up people who may or may not deserve to
die?
i don't know. i guess america wants to show off the fact that they're
willing to die for another man. he's stuck up and arrogant enough to want to
do something like that.
