The Best Way to Honor Our Veterans

...is not to get into any more wars over bullshit or avoidable military conflict. Of course, Barack Obama was "weak" for figuring out how not to bomb Syrians over chemical weapons, which are now being destroyed by peaceful means by the United Nations.

I honor all veterans this Veterans Day. I honor them by hoping that the Veterans Administration figures out how to take care of them all, and by hoping that the State Department and the DOD figure out ways of avoiding conflicts in the future.

Yes, fewer veterans! And fewer graves!

About the American Human

The American Human is written by Calvin Ross, a retired teacher who at various points in life has been a musician, woodworker, restaurateur, narrator, English teacher in Japan, novelist, technology journalist, and private tutor to Japanese children here in the U.S.

Happily residing in the wine country of Sonoma County north of San Francisco, Calvin has lived in the Philippines, the Netherlands, and the aforementioned Japan, as well as in Chicago, Colorado, Georgia, and many different towns in California, including, of all places, the Mojave Desert.

Calvin, you may note quickly, is a liberal progressive who doesn't think being called a socialist is all that bad, especially since he sort of would like living in Denmark if it weren't so cold. He blogs because he can.
