I believe it bears noting that those of us who have served our country
and seen blood spilled have a different perspective on the "proper" way
of dealing with these incidents. I never want to see some things again,
but nonetheless, realize that it's necessary. We're probably approaching
a time in which we'll see some of these fine people pay the ultimate
price. Let us not forget those who are preparing to go into harm's way,
for they too may experience the atrocities we inflict upon each other.
The defense of liberty and freedom has never been easy, but has always
been necessary. To those veterans, be they British, Australian,
Canadian, American, and all others who've fought valiantly, words can
never express the gratitude for the actions and sacrifice you've given.
