Dont ask me no questions, I will tell you no lies

"What do you think about the war/bush/the imperial american aggression slaughter?" is a question I get asked a lot here in Berkeley.

Urg.

Every so often they actually listen for something other than what they feel or believe in.

Otherwise I get looked at like Im a baby-monger. (Uh, someone who tortures new-borns for fun, not someone who mongers babies by making a lot of them, just to be perfectly clear.)


If I consider your opinion valid, please return the respect.


So, just because I say "Get used to it, there is a lot more to come.." does NOT mean I love war, am a registered black republican, and I love or voted for George Dubya. Just because I consider the "Human Shields" going into Iraq and chaining themselves to hospitals and Baby Milk factories are well-intentioned idiots who will get other people killed.. Just because I think Al Gore woulda been a total twat in office, and like it or lump it - a simple-minded (but not a simpleton) Bush in office is maybe what was needed, does not mean I...
Shit. You all get what I mean.

I think for myself.

Or maybe some folk dont get that part.

Not all though, thank god.
