No, it's not "funny", but, I'll quote you on all of it:

[How some people who promote optional war and all the suffering that goes with it, absolutely love it, and want desperately to fund unnecessary killing and maiming, can get all mushy about individual suffering.

Not you, but others on this board.]

Ok, "optional war", what does that mean to you, Bowser. You wrote it.

Viet Nam was let's say, an 'optional war', for the U.S. and every other democratic country at the time. Communist Russia rushed in, Communist Cuba rushed in and every other communist country in the world rushed into North Viet Nam. There was nothing wrong with the U.S. coming in to help those that didn't want to be subserviant to the communists.

You got that?

Probably not.

"unnecessary killing and maiming" and let me add the abolishment of human rights.

No, you would not get that.
