I’m a Vietnam veteran and, from my observations, the vast majority of wars are started by people who expect to make a ton of money out of them. Let’s face it, those weapons aren’t going to sell themselves. None of these people end up in harm’s way, that’s our job.
Lest we forget.
Keeping the community together and the community voice loud and clear is what The Echo is about. More than ever we need your help to keep this voice alive and thriving in the community.
Like all businesses we are struggling to keep food on the table of all our local and hard working journalists, artists, sales, delivery and drudges who keep the news coming out to you both in the newspaper and online. If you can spare a few dollars a week – or maybe more – we would appreciate all the support you are able to give to keep the voice of independent, local journalism alive.
I take my hat off to you Robin and thank you for bravely serving our country.
Kill brown people or jail. Not much bravery there.
Yellow people darling. Most of the teenagers sent there thought they were defending their community. They figured out the scam later, but at the time, they were being brave to go do a good thing. It’s the older people, that should have known better, that you should condemn.
“defending their community” from who? Stupid has never been a good excuse.
Furthermore. Perhaps you should pop into your optometrist for a check up, cataracts are yellow.
The enemy of their community’s continued existence as designated by the recognised experts.
I’m a bit young for cataracts. I’m not a boomer.
All wars are bankers wars.
Taylor, Do you live in the cranky part of the wonderful shire of Byron?. Lighten up a little my non friend, If you had served in the Australian armed forces in Vietnam you certainly would have a different perspective than you express now. It is something that happened, it can’t be reversed and no end of whining about it will change that. Take a different approach to life, you may find something you like.
Pot Kettle Black
Taylor, I don’t like to rain on your lefty demonstration, however I am not a hypocrite and you will find my old school tough love approach has made many men out of soft little boys. The greens thrive on their feelings alone, reality is lost in their utopian views, grow up and toughen up my non friend. And incidently I doubt very much you would know diddly squat about bravery.
… tough love and soft little boys!
Might be time for a good long look at yourself!
That seems like a transphobic statement.
Taylor, I am very happy with my life and lot in this abnormal world. I often take a look at myself and stare in awe and wonder how I get better looking every day. That is a little humour in case you can’t recognise it. I suggest you read the “Desiderata” occasionally, it may lighten up your dark side. Why is it lefty green’s lack happiness, humour and self esteem?. Maybe it’s all linked to the Marxist way of life, they are never happy and always finding something to be offended about. Poor souls.
I thought you might be more Ayn Rand than Desiderata.
It’s only “entry level” wisdom, but good on you anyway.
We’re attempting to change the things we can, will never accept what we can’t and have the wisdom to understand that you’ll never learn the difference until you give it a good try.
Certainly it’s best to avoid the loud and aggressive right wing –
they are vexations to the spirit.
But being gentle with ourselves is true lefty philosophy. Don’t know how that sits with “tough love” though or turning soft into 💪🏻!
But go in peace oh child of the Universe 🕊️
You are vexed by the errors being pointed out to you? That’s avoidant personality disorder.
That’s projection.
I’d recommend the book ‘Synagogue of Satan – Andrew Carrington Hitchcock’, for all three of you.
Conspiracy trash about a Jewish cabal taking over the world! WTF
You been taking tips from Mel Gibson?
Get some help.
Which bit of my light hearted banter prompted that little bit of psychoanalysis?
I certainly think Gregrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr should read it.
