Is there no good news in the world? There's precious little in this thread.

[Scrooge McSam]

It makes more sense than saying since I oppose this war that I wish our soldiers dead.

No, Alex, argue away to your heart's content. No matter your bluster, I don't want my neighbor's son dead because he was obligated to fight a war that I don't support. I get no pleasure from the constant tension my co-worker is under because her son might not come home alive. You can ignore the money I've sent to organizations buying body armor for soldiers who have been under-equipped by this cowboy government. I'll keep doing what I'm doing and keep feeling better because I'm at least able to do some good in this awful situation. The only change I'll make is to start ignoring your hot air.

Good day, sir.
