Message to Voting Americans from a Mud Marine

I have just seen the pictures of the beheading of one of our citizens by Muslim animals, and I am having trouble dealing with it. I am an old man without much time remaining in this world, and I don't have much left to offer; however, I am moved by recent events to share my thoughts with those of you in my children and grandchildren's generations. I am not a professional military or naval person, but I volunteered for and spent my adult youth of twenty-nine years in the Marine Corps Reserve. My father and many of my friends and acquaintances gave their lives to make this country great. They handed you this great country on a silver platter, and for the most part you have no idea of what it took to make this country what is today. You elect people of low moral character, people of little or no fortitude, and people who whine, because the government is not doing enough for you. We Americans once had a flag picturing a snake that read, "Don't Tread On Me." Those of you remaining with backbone and character need to fly that flag once more all the time remembering what it stands for. We need a leader and good followers in this country that will tell our enemies, "For each of your American prisoners you execute, we will hang ten of you in our prisons. For each building you bomb in America we will obliterate one of your cities, and for each of our cities you destroy, we will take out one of your countries. To stop such blood bath is easy; don't tread on us." This is the only language the animals understand, but you, young America, do not have the courage and fortitude for this, and you will suffer many times over for your weakness. You will continue to elect those who promise something for nothing from the government, those who will promise you that your boys and girls will never have to suffer, and those who will preach how evil are those of past generations who suffered and died to make this country what it is today and subsequently handed over to you. Most of you will never wear a uniform, would riot in the streets if there was a draft, and will never make a sacrifice for your country, but you will sit back with grand eloquent intellectual idealistic ideas which will only lead to a great loss. Like the little rich kid who inherited it all, easy come, easy go. I sincerely hope I am wrong.

Well said; It is a shame that today the children in high school have a switch in their heads that has been turned off. They see to much gore in the movies and on TV that they have become desensitized to it all. The brutal decapitation of Nick Berg is Murder and they don't see it, a shame, scary. We are inundated with the left filling our children's heads with whats in it for me attitudes and not my problem leave me alone. Problem is everyone has forgotten the TOWERS falling, the people who choose to jump to their deaths than rather be burned or crushed alive, that is torture, 3,000 American citizens going to working minding their own business, thats torture. My kids were scared to death on 9/11 and some prankster calls in a bomb threat to their high school the same day moments after they witness the towers falling. This is torture but what saddens me even more is that if the Loyal followers of Mohammad - Allah are truly peace loving Islamists they need to rise up and take the fight to these extremists and tell the US soldiers where these cowards hide so they can meet their maker. We fight there in their land so it will never happen on our land again. Outrage should be in all of our hearts not over photos of naked Iraqi men but of the towers falling and murders of Perle and Berg.
