I once heard that there was a farmer that lost both his legs to two landmines he stepped on separated by several years. How much would that suck? |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 23766809 United States12/03/2012 01:30 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | All of it is evil. The war machine is not about freedom and democracy. It's about fucking people up. Pure and simple. Is it controlled by satanic forces or just lost people ? I guess the two could go hand in hand. But really ? ...satanic forces ? I don't believe in satan. Evil is inherent in everyone given the right conditions. As is goodness. Unfortunately, evil seems to be prevailing in our species. And has been for quite a long time. |
