Veterans

make them think they are protecting the country. In the mean time the real enemy is in your back yard putting your other child in a prison and stealing your democracy.
The older I get the more I understand that young men are nothing but fodder for the country. Not the rich children only the poor. I could not believe it when my parents were going to let the country send me to Viet Nam. I was so peaceful and young, happy, healthy, yearning for life. Now a bitter old man who realizes he has been used and lied to his entire existence. Your American dream doesn't get to happen.

They don't kill themselves just because of the war but because they have been suckered. We know there was no reason for us to be there except to support capitalism, protecting no one but the rich mans profits. Then being ignored, denied and literally threatened and talked to like a dog by the VA you lose all hope and dignity.

I blame the American people. They are like a stupid cow, just keep a bale of hay(trinkets) in front of them and he's happy and stupid right up to the slaughter house.

I don't blame my brothers and sisters, they fought a courageous battle and in the end their own country killed them. Who said, I found the enemy and they are us. I don't cry for soldiers anymore. I shake my head in shame for a beautiful life wasted or ended in the name of greed but justified in the name of freedom. Fuck you America, you have nothing to be proud of.
