I will never stand BEHIND a man, but I will stand BESIDE one. ~MAF That's a good plan. If you stand behind him, he is liable to sit on you. Men often mistake women for chairs. But that's okay, because women mistake men for doormats. But that's okay, because doormats often mistake chairs for men. But that's okay, because chairs often mistake women for mistakes. |

"1. Society Needs Laws
While anarchy can often turn a humdrum weekend into something unforgettable, eventually the mob must be kept from stealing the conch and killing Piggy. And while it would be nice if that something was simple human decency, anybody who has witnessed the "50% Off Wedding Dress Sale" at Filene's Basement knows we need a backup plan - preferably in writing. On the other hand, too many laws can result in downright tyranny, particularly if one of those laws is "Kneel before Zod." Somewhere between these two extremes lies the legislative sweet-spot that produces just the right amount of laws for a well-adjusted society - more than zero, less than fascism." -Jon Stewart |

Presumed innocent until determined guilty by a judge or jury of your peers. This is one of the precepts our country was founded on. You need evidence, motive, and testimony in this country to even have a case. You can not accuse and convict based on testimony and allegations alone, for this is not justice. Our Constitution was written with the true and impartial spirit of what justice is all about. It is up to us, all of us to look at accusations in a fair and unbiased way, to uncover the truth, and let justice be done.

"In the absence of any mathematical explanation, one thing is for certain; if you engage in games of chance long enough, the experience is bound to affect the way you see God. Successfully draw to an inside straight three hands in a row, and you’ve got to be blessed. But if you’re the person drawn out on, the one whose trip aces just got snapped for the third time, you will go home feeling cursed."

War doesn’t determine who’s right. War determines who’s left
~Bertrand Russell and Sarcasm helps keep you from telling people what you really think of them and Expecting the world to treat you fairly because you are good is like expecting the bull not to charge because you are a vegetarian. and Happiness is an attitude. We either make ourselves miserable, or happy and strong. The amount of work is the same. oh and and and..... “Preventative war was an invention of Hitler. Frankly, I would not even listen to anyone seriously that came and talked about such a thing.” -Dwight D. Eisenhower War is just one more big government program. – Joseph Sobran Mankind must put an end to war, or war will put an end to mankind. ~John F. Kennedy, 1961 "There are no atheists in foxholes" isn't an argument against atheism, it's an argument against foxholes. ~James Morrow The direct use of force is such a poor solution to any problem, it is generally employed only by small children and large nations. ~David Friedman A great war leaves the country with three armies - an army of cripples, an army of mourners, and an army of thieves. ~German Proverb The problem in defense is how far you can go without destroying from within what you are trying to defend from without. ~Dwight D. Eisenhower War will exist until that distant day when the conscientious objector enjoys the same reputation and prestige that the warrior does today. ~John F. Kennedy Never think that war, no matter how necessary, nor how justified, is not a crime. ~Ernest Hemingway In war, there are no unwounded soldiers. ~José Narosky If we let people see that kind of thing, there would never again be any war. ~Pentagon official explaining why the U.S. military censored graphic footage from the Gulf War It is forbidden to kill; therefore all murderers are punished unless they kill in large numbers and to the sound of trumpets. ~Voltaire, War The tragedy of war is that it uses man's best to do man's worst. ~Henry Fosdick In war, truth is the first casualty. ~Aeschylus (Thanks, Dan) All wars are follies, very expensive and very mischievous ones. In my opinion, there never was a good war or a bad peace. When will mankind be convinced and agree to settle their difficulties by arbitration? ~Benjamin Franklin War grows out of the desire of the individual to gain advantage at the expense of his fellow man. ~Napoleon Hill We have war when at least one of the parties to a conflict wants something more than it wants peace. ~Jeane J. Kirkpatrick Man is the only animal that deals in that atrocity of atrocities, War. He is the only one that gathers his brethren about him and goes forth in cold blood and calm pulse to exterminate his kind. He is the only animal that for sordid wages will march out... and help to slaughter strangers of his own species who have done him no harm and with whom he has no quarrel.... And in the intervals between campaigns he washes the blood off his hands and works for "the universal brotherhood of man" - with his mouth. ~Mark Twain When the rich wage war, it's the poor who die. ~Jean-Paul Sartre We have failed to grasp the fact that mankind is becoming a single unit, and that for a unit to fight against itself is suicide. ~Havelock Ellis The basic problems facing the world today are not susceptible to a military solution. ~John F. Kennedy If it were proved to me that in making war, my ideal had a chance of being realized, I would still say "no" to war. For one does not create a human society on mounds of corpses. ~Louis Lecoin Liberty and democracy become unholy when their hands are dyed red with innocent blood. ~Gandhi, Non-violence in Peace and War, 1948 We saw the lightning and that was the guns and then we heard the thunder and that was the big guns; and then we heard the rain falling and that was the blood falling; and when we came to get in the crops, it was dead men that we reaped. ~Harriet Tubman The military don't start wars. Politicians start wars. ~William Westmoreland To kill a man is not to defend a doctrine, but to kill a man. ~Michael Servetus Anyone who has ever looked into the glazed eyes of a soldier dying on the battlefield will think hard before starting a war. ~Otto Von Bismark All wars are civil wars, because all men are brothers. ~François Fénelon |
