Reply #12: Weep

[orwell]

Read these words and weep King George.

Weep for the pain you wrought on the warriors you sent to die for your own blood sport.
Weep for the misery that lives with the families who will never see their sons, daughters, sisters, and brothers whole.
Weep for the trust you breeched with the citizens you swore to govern, for the Constitution you swore to uphold, watered with the blood of Patriots..
Weep for the innocents put to the terrible swift sword of madness unleashed.
Weep for the children you butchered, for the poets you silenced, for the mothers you violated.

All for the sake of empire, in the name of God and righteousness.

Listen to the words of a man who has seen the valley of death and returned to say, not in my name.

There is no disgrace in defeat, only in dishonor.
