Today actually, I've been focused on you. And trying to understand..why?
You are not an idiot. You are not well educated but that's irrelevant. You're young and certainly idealistic. Some worldly experience but limited and that's no issue with me.
You seek, the events last few days inspired you and horrified both. Me too.
Yet you still cut and paste labelled propaganda..I'm not specifying biblical either because in light of tragedy beyond the norms, we pray. I do too actually.
Please sit back, breathe easy, maybe cry for the kids and families but don't walk in hate or fear. Especially hate from fear.
We'll hash this out over time. I trust us. I trust me (only one to survive my clinical trials and my foreign service unit).
First,
I Want To Genuinely Thank You For Your Service. I Mean No Disrespect by that.
You’ve seen, been, done, & witnessed things that most will never come close to grasping OR Understanding.
You stood.
Thank You.
Now,
The Events of that last few days sicken me.
This Tragedy hasn’t directly effected me & wasn’t the Topic of Discussion so I haven’t mentioned it, but since you did, I am correcting the record.
Pure Evil is what we are reflecting on.
We see different ways to possibly curb it, but do not assume I’m inspired by what’s happened to those poor souls in Florida. I am Appalled.
I haven’t cut & pasted Propaganda.
I have participated in discussion that I have been exposed to the Topic of, & frequently.
I assume I am certainly not as well traveled as yourself, but I’ve been around a bit in my few years on this rock.
My findings may be different than yours, but I have not Regurgitated NRA or Neo-Con Propaganda.
Quite Often I Quoted Sources of information that are not aligned with my views because what I was sharing showed the reality that those companies already posted, & are right in front of our noses.
When I referenced your youth, I did it assuming you grew up in an era where Children didn’t worry about being shot at school, parents weren’t too concerned about drug abuse, & Americans of all Creeds worked hard together, & lived the American Dream of the 1950s, 1960s, & into the 1970s.
No,
Those times were not perfect, but at least around Home, everyone got along with the people in their communities & there wasn’t the racist junk there is today.
If I incorrectly assumed your situation was similar, I apologize: I meant no ill will.
I wasn’t there, but I have seen enough & heard enough from my elders to know, that around here, there wasn’t the Junk that plagued other areas.
I bid you a Farewell & look forward to picking up our discussion in the Future.
