Well, it is personal to ask what you volunteer for.

It's also personal to imply that the men and women who volunteer for the military are being killed for no good reason.

They don't think so, and neither do I.

I don't believe there are many inches of ground in this country or any other that haven't had blood shed in order to secure them.

I think it's ridiculous to pretend that this isn't true.

In fact, I think it's so ridiculous to pretend that you live a pleasant life, free to shop until you drop, without the blood shed by others to make it so, that I don't really want to continue this conversation.

Please continue to shop. A lot of men gave their lives so that you could shop without fear.

Make them proud.
