Anonymous Coward User ID: 744048 United States 01/25/2010 12:24 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The term patriot doesn’t even begin to describe Paul (Roy) Benavidez. I think ‘Hero’ works pretty well though. Duty (from "due," that which is owing, O. Fr. deu, did, past participle of devoir; Lat. debere, debitum; cf. "debt") something that one is expected or required to do by moral or legal obligation. A note from the photoplay creator: I did this as a way to honor all those who have struggled to come back from serving our country in times of war. The most interesting part for me was something I didn't find out until after I created this photoplay, was that this was Roy's second tour. He had been so gravely wounded, by stepping on a landmine, on his first tour that he was drummed out of the Army after returning. Roy built his body back up and returned to the service after proving himself fit and joined the elite Green Beret's and went back to Vietnam for a second tour for which he received the Medal of Honor. More information on Roy Benavidez here: [link to www.mishalov.com] [link to en.wikipedia.org] |

BRIEF AND TO THE POINT User ID: 381742 United States 01/25/2010 12:47 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Thanks OP. Poor people do poor people things, and rich people do rich people things. You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friend, is the beginning of the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it! when you rob Paul to give to Peter ... ... ... you will always get Peters support! :Brieffromnativea: |
