2. If you are really that concerned then I would suggest that you take a more active interest as to what kind of shit the local police in places like SF and Oakland pull on 16 year old and younger inner city kids in the name of protecting the public. On your tax dollars. The type of ritualized abuse of rights that every major metropolitan police force engages in concerns far more than what happens in an war zone.

Ahem. Everyone would have a breaking point with teenagers who haven't been supervised for 10 or 12 years, if ever. The police are merely you and I in uniforms, and hopefully without a history of Republican drug abuse.
That said, end the war on the poor, and we'd end a huge amount of innocent suffering in this nation.
Of course, I'm still indifferent if addicts are taken out back and shot.
