3. This reminds us that the war is still on... |
|
Seems that the MSM barely covers it anymore.
I'm shedding tears right now, because this reminded me of something.
I feel bad in a way for even talking like this, considering the human tragedy that war brings.
I saw a video last year where soldiers were shooting at a dog for sport. This dog was just walking around, and they decided to shoot at it. Only they did not shoot to kill. They shot to maim, and then kill. So they shot the dog in the leg. And the dog screamed. Then they shot it again, and the dog screamed and tried to run. Then they finally killed it.
I have not been the same person since I watched that video. All of the human tragedy, and what bothers me most is an innocent dog getting shot because this is what our military has turned these young men into. Killing machines.
And I do not know why I grieve more for that dog than I do for the people. And I hate the fact that I do, but I can't help it.
Motherfuckers.

4. I think the difference is that the maiming and then killing of the dog |
|
is a cruel sport,while they are maiming and killing people as part of their job. Doesn't make it any better but that is the difference.

5. humans can't NOT have war |
|
And I'm supposed to be proud to be human? I'm supposed to think "God" has anything to do with humans? I'm supposed to respect humans more than peaceful animals? It's okay for my species to rape the Hell out of their one planet? Since I'm female it's my fucking duty to make new humans?
Sorry, this is only a kick :hi: please try to excuse me boys, I'm disgusted from now on and pro-human BS from DUers only shows me I'm right.
