I was at a memorial for the 2nd World War the other day. I read the names of those that i owe all of my freedoms to. They were inscribed for posterity on bricks along a paved path. But no one else seemed to even care that these men and women died to give us our freedoms. They were stepping all over the very faces of those who protected them even before they were born. I started to think "what if i end up here with them? a forgotten and unwanted hero?" The thought of me dying for these people who don't care about tradition or anything sacred. Such immorality. Apathy. It makes my blood boil to think about these calouse bastards that don't give a damn about our heroes who made the greatest sacrifice for us. I try not to hate but they really set me off. I was so depressed thinking about what may happen if i end up here. The forgotten soldier in a war that doesn't matter to the American People. I used to be proud to be an American. Not anymore.
