Exactly.
I love peace, but I am not a pacificist. When terror comes home they can
expect a fight, more likely a serious beating, and possibly death. And they
will have gotten what they so richly deserved.
From the word go on 911, I have stated my primary interest was homeland
defense -- not Afghanistan, and certainly not Iraq. The Corporatocracy's
oil grabbing doesn't line my pockets with gold, and I wouldn't take it even
if it were offered.
The Frog cannot be bought, nor is he for sale in the first place. And yes, I
am driving a smaller vehicle now...
I identify what is right and good to do, and I try to stick with it.
