yeah, i am really upset about the soldier’s death..needless most likely.
Guess I reacted over that.
I really feel for his girlfriend and family. This thing is an amazing tragedy. It’s interesting that I don’t have this take on it regarding the people shot in the “projects”, but I think it is partly because the situation is very different. Even if this guy was a black vet with the exact same credentials I would feel the same way about this.
It is not about race, but it IS about culture.
