That pictures makes me feel sick. I've never liked to see it. That looks so painful.

Lord have mercy on the souls of the dead and may justice and peace come to all. My heart goes out to you, your father, and your whole family.

i did a paper on nixon's opinion on anti-vietnam war protesters. i included a lot about that man and he ended up taking it out because it was "irrelivent" so i included instead a piece about an american boy with the same visions doing the same action.

nothing has changed. i could have been writing about the "war on terrorism" instead of the "vietnam conflict"
