Interesting perspective...



I certainly don't disagree.

Stay safe.

Me either.

Only trouble is that it's been a helluva long time since "a man with a helmet on a field" legitimately "defended" this country.

True, my friend, but how many of those men on the field BELIEVE that they are defending this country? And how many American citizens BELIEVE that those helmeted men are defending this country?

In both cases I believe that a lot believe it. Otherwise the men on the field and the citizens at home would never allow it.

You've been there. You know what I'm talking about. Belief is required for the maintenance of one's (or a nation's) sanity.

Reality is the hangover after the party.

I hope you're doing well.
