NOW.
On the bus this morning I sat behind an old fellow who was heading for the VA hospital. He was clearly on the way out. Extreme suffering. Bones and muscles failing, not able to sit upright. But still in the game, still unfailingly polite and disciplined.
Old? Old? Probably no older than me. Probably about 70.
The military kills men. Fast or slow, it kills.
We need to STOP MAKING WAR RIGHT FUCKING NOW,
and switch ALL of our war budget to taking care of veterans. ALL of it. NOW.
