Soldiers Marching To War

One tin soldier

Questions Please

  • Do you understand who, what, when, where and why about your chosen war?

  • Were you personally offended or assaulted by any one of your chosen enemies?

  • Are you discussing your decision with family members and love ones?

  • Do they encourage you to fight?

  • Do you have love ones?

  • Do you recommend them joining you?

  • Do you know a veteran? Have you talked with them? Did they glorify it or did they tell you like it really is.

  • What about your future and the future of your family. Ask a person who has been wounded in battle? How does it feel to be without your head?

  • Then, why are you marching off to war?

You know some families want to see their children marched off to war. Patriotism and fringe benefits may sound better than helping make a better life at home. Going to war ain't going to make things any better. Do you pitch a tantrum when things do not go your way? Does it help anything?

We are responsible for our actions and decisions, and the consequences.

I sincerely apologize for this war thing, but I do have a job to do.

Think of your family

Go ahead and hate your neighbor,
Go ahead and cheat a friend.
Do it in the name of Heaven,
You can justify it in the end.
There won't be any trumpets blowing
Come the judgment day,
On the bloody morning after....
One tin soldier rides away.--Dennis Lambert and Brian Potter
