Stop. Just... please... Just stop...

Never forget? How could anyone EVER forget?
I see these images, watch these tributes, see the tears... What is it that now so polarizes and divides us? Race, political party, religion, whatever it happens to be... Let it go. Let our families heal. Let our nation heal. Let our world heal... Please, no more killing, no more dying, no more destruction, no more graves, no more mothers who won't be coming home to their babies, no more dismembered and blown up babies and children, no more children wondering why daddy won't be coming home. Please... No more.
Whatever we must do to preserve freedom and protect our nation, let us do it and be done with it as soon as possible. Let the United States, as the world's remaining super power, base our foreign policy on what is good, right, and decent. Let us come together and reason one with another, safeguard each other's dignity, and bring peace to our world.

Oh, is that all it is? Just "talk"? Oh. Thanks. I hadn't realized that. I hadn't realized that speaking what is in my heart and on my mind was nothing more than "loving to hear myself talk."
I'll keep my fucking mouth shut from now on. What the fuck was I thinking, attempting to present anything sincere and honest here?
As you were. We now return you to your previously scheduled vapid humor and endless innuendo.
Bon apetite.

Frank, your next post didn't seem to reflect this above.
It is good to not forget.

Jeep,
Speak your mind, if someone disagrees with you they will speak their mind. That's what makes free speech work. You have to take the good replies with the bad, because everyone is free to give there own view.

Thanks Frank. Nice words. And thanks for posting the pix on the other string.
Not contribute anymore? Dang! This place is going to get dull.

Nice post Frank.
Thank you.
Hey Jonny & others, cut Frank some slack, alright?
Frank was being sincere.
More than I can say for some here.
Agree to disagree, fine.
Let's not make it personal.
Please.
IMHO, today, of all days is not the time to
get out of line or give someone grief.
Nuff said.

Frank - Opinions are like ass-holes - everybody has one. Don't let someone else's opinion run you off. You have the right to speak your mind, and your heart. If nobody likes it - Fuck 'em! That is what makes America great. FREEDOM OF SPEECH!!!
Besides, you can't leave. You're one of us.

Great post Frank, makes sense to me.
I've laughed at many of your posts, they're great.
I think Jonny made a joke there. Not sure. I don't think He's that mean.

God bless you and your family Frank. I hope that you don't let the a$$holes run you off.
I believe one of our founding fathers (Patrick Henry, I think) said: "I may not agree with what you say, but I'll defend to the death your right to say it."
Seems that todays politcal landscape has forgotten that important idea.
Hope you stick around.

Thank you Frank. I agree with what you said. Ghandi said we should be the change we want in the world. America is a great country - we should make sure that our leaders act in the right way.  I think you should stick around. We're just like a family - and I just got here!
