You stated fight communism or fight it on our shores.
Well...... How about, fight Terrorism on our shores.
In case you haven't noticed, we are already fighting it on our shores.
I DON'T want to be fighting it in my backyard.
If you live in the NY metro area as I do, Every day when I cross the George Washington Bridge, I wonder if this will be the next target.
Everytime you see a suspicious character or package, it crosses your mind that this could be a potential act of terrorism.
When it strikes home, it strikes the hardest.
Perhaps you live in some little isolated town in Iowa but have it happen in your backyard and you will feel a lot differently.
I watched Tower #2 of the World Trade center collapse. I lost FDNY friends in the bombimg.
Ask me if I care if the government decided to turn Iraq into a parking lot.
Call me barbaric, call me insensitive I plead guilty.
Unfortunately that is all these people understand.
