9/11 is happening every day

Its far worse than 9/11 was. We flipped out so much over that, yet that sort of thing is going on all the time. That horror and pain: constant; the fear: constant; every day. War must stop. Militaries must stop. Heck, war video games and movies need to stop, too; it may just be a game, but it represents something real, and murderous.

Stop spending money on bombs and bullets, spend it on food and water.
Remember 9/11 and how we felt, now think about how it feels to live in another country where things like that are common place...but its never common emotion, every time it happens people are crying in fear for their lives.

Don't watch this and tell me that we need to keep funding bombs and bullets. If you can watch that video, and others like it, and still tell me that we need to keep building bombs and bullets, than the only thing I can say to you is that you are not human. We need to have compassion, to love life, not killing people because they are different or have different ancestry.

Ok, so you can try to say that we need those things to fight for our freedom...well, go look at my Veterans Day post, we're not fighting for our freedom anymore. We're just fighting.

Go watch the movie War Games, it's a great 80's movie about a kid who accidentally hacks into the military computers (ok, a little far fetched), and plays a game of nuclear war with the military simulation computer. But the military doesn't realize what's going on, and thinks that Russia (Soviet Union) is actually launching nukes. Finally the computer realizes that no one can really "win" in a war.
There is no victory, there is only defeat and death. How can we say we won something when there is life lost? Is life so meaningless that we can call a win when people have died? How do you come out a head when there is human life lost? How can there be freedom when there is death?
War is oppression. Fighting for freedom means destroying someone else. It takes away someone else's right to live. Why are we so blind?

I move to Occupy the Military. Stop war, stop fighting, stop bombs, stop bullets, stop pepper spray, stop violence.
