Yes PT, We Americans want to feel safe and secure for now and for the future, for ourselves and our families, friends, countrymen, etc.. But just like ALL in this world, that have the same wants and expectations as we do.. As you know.. But I think We Americans, mostly, have become LAZY, in our MINDS and BODIES Because we have had it TOO EASY, through our TECH ADVANCES mainly.. WE have been brainwashed to RELY, not on our ourselves, but our doctor (when we have a belly ache), our lawyer (when a tree limb falls on your property), our taxman,, etc, when we GOOD Americans are trying to SCREW other Americans on taxes by being good Americans.. <gg> But most importantly, UNFORTUNATELY, A person ,(not you) We let our leadership DECIDE WHEN WAR is WANTED/Not needed.. :(.. Well we should JUST BE HONEST, FIRST TO OURSELVES.. let a fart to cure our belly ache.. Talk to a neighbor over a cup of coffee about that limb.... And more importantly, LET our leaders? KNOW,, We do NOT HAVE a LAZY MIND, a bane of hmankind.. We do NOT want YOUR war. We KNOW what's happening.. m

"I don't think they're fabricators," McPhail said, "but they are in the business of propagandizing." (Seattle Times Feb17'03) For march organizers of any kind, the stakes are high; so high, experts say, they may count invisible bodies, even if unintentionally. Saturday's robust numbers mean lots of ordinary people came out, a signal the anti-war message has significant mainstream appeal, said Howard Gale, a spokesman for Sound NonviolentOpponents of War, one of the march's organizers. "Seeing this outpouring makes people watching on TV start to question what's happening," he said. His estimate: 50,000 to 60,000. Seattle police officials were far more conservative, using officers on the ground and aerial estimates of the Washington State Patrol to put the number at 15,000 to 20,000. archives.seattletimes.nwsource.com march on comrades
