[edit]- The future is too good to waste on lies. And life is way too short to care for the damnation of others, as well as to spend it helping fools with their ideas that are wrong.

These people need help, yet what they get is the most conceited country in the world telling them that they are nothing and that they are stupid, that they have no idea how to live.

Quotes about Bergdahl

It is best to also have a systematic oral defense of what our conscience demands. Stand with like minded men when possible. Dad.
