Why this keeps happening
We love peace and despise War and aggression and greed and fear. We will almost do anything to avoid violence.

This they exploit to the maximum, always culminating in revolt. It shouldn't be necessary to watch as everything deteriorates because a few want everything.

Peace?

1. What the bleep are you talking about?
Edited on Sat Oct-22-11 12:03 AM by ChandlerJr
Well over 100 million watch the NFL on the TV every weekend, 16 stadiums are full with an average of over 50,000 fanatics to take in the violence. 100's of thousands attend NASCAR and Indy races to see the carnage and Mixed Martial Arts(MMA)and UFC (Ultimate Fighting Championship) are the fastest growing spectator "sport" in the country.

We love peace and despise War and aggression? What world are you living on?

On edit: Did I mention the grave dancing that goes here on when a brown skinned person that "we" don't like gets blown up by a hellfire missile or has his brains blown out by rebels we support?
