This was the final question.

Q: Anything else to add?

I have seen many people killed, a lot of women and children too, civilians. A huge number of people suffered, were hungry and cold and were terrified through that period.

But I can count on one hand the dead or hungry politicians in that time.

Things were good for them through that period. Some of them ended up even richer. A lot of them are still powerful in the same or different parties, and are still talking about “their people” or “ causes” or “fear from others”.

It is the way it works.

Sorry man wrong info, that was not Cristian vs Muslim war, it was civil war, with lot of switching between sides.

And sorry i am not to go in to the politics, i dont care to much for that, i am not going into religious stories, i mean i believe in God as higher power, and I am trying to live by his laws, i am not belong to any dogma, Muslim or Christian.



hmm

I see a lot of Bosnians at the range. I knew some Bosnians who were really into guns. I think they learned a big lesson then. Never ever be unarmed. That is the most important "take" (woke) I get from that conflict. Don't be unarmed.

Yea, I can see it. The politicians are getting protected come hell or high water. They won't go hungry and they won't go unpaid.

If this gentleman's story isn't a lesson for all of us, then I don't know what is. This was in the early 90's. That is NOT THAT LONG AGO.

We had better pay attention.

For sure. And we best get to whacking our politicians before they can hop a jet to Tahiti. Be damned if I am going to suffer while these pieces of schit get fatter and richer. I say we get them first, before we start filling holes with anyone else. Hell, do that, and the whole schit sandwich might be averted, who knows. Wars and famines are usually government sponsored events. The few preying on the many. Fugg running. Let’s stampede their azzes first and then see if we still all hate each other.

OldGrayWolf, Funny way of putting it. But, there's a lotta truth there.
Most politicians in DC now aren't worth the lead it'd take to knock them over, and they don't deserve the dignity of a bullet.

I talked with a couple of Bosnians and they hate Democrats with a passion as they saw first hand what the little twats do.

Exact quote from one.

"They're fuqking crazy and deserve killing".

Lol, he had some pretty colorful words for Liberal women as well.

I grew up with stories of my parents under Nazi occupation, and it always came down to being able to grow your own food, and keeping the fire in the stove. Stuff all got taken, as did young girls and young men (for different reasons). They kept their heads down, tried to keep some of their animals alive, and grew and stored what food they could. Few things were as valuable as a fresh egg or fresh butter.

OGW, I think the politicians are well worth the price of lead! But I have to agree regarding their dignity

I remember an interview on 9/11 where you could hear bodies hitting the ground from the twin towers. The people on camera didn't even flinch. Stuck with me.

As a kid, I had next door neighbors with Nazi tattoos from the concentration camps. They warned me to be vigilant.

Normally decent individuals doing unthinkable, horrendous, and callous activities. No such thing as a decent, Christian, socialist.

Tracey, I hope you get the hell out of that concrete schithole soon. While I do live in a suburban environment, I'm surrounded by nature. Ex: huge lake right across the street and 5 more within 1/4 mi of my house. Canals full of fish. Birds everywhere. Huge iguanas. There is plenty of stuff to kill and eat, if you know where to look and how to do it quietly. It would take a while to kill me via starvation. They'd have to come at me in other ways.

Please feel free to stick a fork in that idiot mayor on your way out. smile

In a former job, I had the opportunity to meet many Holocaust survivors. For some reason, they were surprised I knew about their tattoos and what they represented.

My Dad was in a Sherman that rolled over the fences at one of the camps. I posted some of his notes on that here a while back.

The most prevalent defense after the war was "I was just following orders." Sounds alot like some LEO's and civil servants today.

Never said nothing about shooting anyone. Ropes work fine, lampposts are stout. I can build a mean gallows or guillotine. Always favored that scene in Braveheart where Wallace rides his horse into the ahole’s bedroom and smacks the bastard with that spiked ball on a chain, too. Bullets are too easy for these pukes, unless we’re gonna gut shoot them. and stake them on an ant hill in the sun. Hanging is my favorite. Rope is reusable, and it solves the dignity aspect, too. Nobody looks dignified with piss running down their leg and their tongue hanging out.
