Hell yeah Tharrell great video that is why americans kick ass no matter how bad things get they support each other. It was sad to see someone so young with such bad injuries. Can we leave iraq and afganistan now please.

I looked up the stats for this community..... annual salary is $24k a year. Not rich by any means.

Aliso Viejo is far better off economically, but I bet you couldnt raise $50k here.

God Bless small towns....

Guys, I actually live in Cana Virginia-on the line so close I could throw a rock across it into NC. He's just a couple of miles from me.
You don't know how small Ararat VA is, it's pretty much a wide spot in the road. Very rural.
I would like to do something for this kid if I could.
I'd like to see him on a bike or quad maybe. if he would like it
I'm gonna let him settle in and see what I can do after a little while.
God knows I have too many bikes.

Yesterday I thought about that video and that made me think about the 69,000 souls lost in Vietnam. Fucking LBJ and McNamara.
Tony's rule for war

#2-Do not engage without rule #1

Tony's rules of engagement
#1-Free to obliterate at will




Boots on the ground translates to body bags and disabled Americans.
I prefer to utilize technology. Death from above.
WW2, we TARGETED civilians in Germany and Japan.
Now, collaterall damage is all anyone is worried about.
The initial airborne drop into Afghanistan I agree with but, we should have used more air assets instead of putting these young men and women in harms way for absolutely nothing.
