While I admit MOST life is precious, I keep hearing about the 4,000 plus deaths so far in the war against terror.
Here is a little perspective about wars America has engaged in:
The Revolutionary war: 4,435 Deaths
The Mexican war: 13,283 Deaths
The Civil war: 364,511 Deaths
World war one: 116,516 Deaths
World war two: 405,399 Deaths
The Korean war: 36,574 deaths
The Vietnam war" 58,209 deaths
Kind of put things into perspective huh folks.
A little debunking about Vietnam, many blacks love to shout from the rooftops how America put the blacks in the most dangerous positions, how America used them as fodder in the war because they were to poor to escape the draft, this has been taken as truth for many years because if your repeat a lie long enough soon it becomes some kind of "TRUTH. Well the real truth is in Vietnam there were 49,802 white deaths and 7,241 black deaths, this does not add up to putting blacks in more harms way does it? Just a matter of if you tell a lie long enough and loud enough it takes a life of its own.
