A Fun Fact ?!?!?

Posted by marie-anne on 11/9/2005, 18:11:17, in reply to "Re: Item of interest? part 2"
I wasn't going to say anything but A fun fact? 50,000 casualties is a fun fact???? Who is this?
Most of those casualties are civilians, innocent men, women, and children. But hey, isn't it fun? Deborah, I know you didnt write this so this is in no way directed at you. PLease everyone understand that.

It doesn't matter if this is bull propagando or someone's actual information. Casualties are never a fun fact. It boggles my mind how the bush administration has been able to completely remove the soul from their enemies. These are real people that are dying. Children who have hopes and dreams, who play with toy cars the same way your children play. Mothers who love their children with the same ferocity as you love yours. Fathers who only want to provide for their family, to make their children's lives a little better than his. They have family who mourn their death in the same way as the families here mourn their soldiers deaths. And yet some moron sends out an email that calls it a fun fact. and we perpetuate that by sending it to other people. How is the idiot who wrote this any different from the insurgents who believe all americans evil and proper targets?

I know there will be a lot of people on this board who are going to disagree with me. I'm not looking to start a fight. Like I said I wasnt going to say anything. Somewhere in all these interesting facts about big guns that we all have become enamoured with are some very scary statements, that somehow nobody is taking issue with.
