I'm not too sure if it was your intent, but I detect an undertone of resentment and animosity toward soldiers and those in the military from you Brutha. I hope it's just me being overly jumpy.

But if this undertone is intentional, I would have to strongly disagree with you. I am not going to prove my point to you, because I think I will have as much success as you trying to prove your point to me. I know many men and women in the military who are very conscious people, good decision makers, and live their lives with a high amount of integrity an honor. And I very much object to painting them with this broad brush of a group of people who kill others (innocent or otherwise).

I am certainly going to hope that I've totally imagined all of this.
