It is US policy to shoot. Shoot when you are feeling good. Shoot when you are feeling bad. Shoot when you are stone sober. Shoot when you are stoned to the gills. Shoot when you're drunk as shit. Shoot for the hell of it. Shoot when the waitress serves your meatloaf cold. Shoot when the mail is late. Shoot when your stockbroker falls short. Shoot in the name of The Lord. Shoot for the Homeland, Indepedence, Manhood, Virility, The Republic, The Nation, Protection From Fascism, Protection From Communism, A Free and Safe Future. Shoot. Shoot For Hollywood. Shoot. Shoot. Shoot. And keep on Shooting. God loves a good exchange of gunfire. Whether it was US policy to “shoot refugees” is moot.

It is US policy to shoot.

Shoot when you are feeling good.

Shoot when you are feeling bad.

Shoot when you are stone sober.

Shoot when you are stoned to the gills.

Shoot when you’re drunk as shit.

Shoot for the hell of it.

Shoot when the waitress serves your meatloaf cold.

Shoot when the mail is late.

Shoot when your stockbroker falls short.

Shoot in the name of The Lord.

Shoot for the Homeland, Indepedence, Manhood, Virility, The Republic, The Nation, Protection From Fascism, Protection From Communism, A Free and Safe Future. Shoot.

Shoot For Hollywood.

Shoot. Shoot. Shoot.

And keep on Shooting.

God loves a good exchange of gunfire.

I'm certainly not advocating the whitewashing of US actions, as I know some nasty things have happened over the years in various parts of the world, but there is something called the truth, and that's what should always be searched for. I've told friends that I trust leftist activists and conspiracy theorists even less than government sources and for this have been called a right wing nut.

I agree with Sperwer on this newer story.

Er.. I don't think any Koreans (left wing or not), has any control over what the Washington Post and the US military write in their web pages. “Also sounds like a new effort by the Korean left to scupper FTA talks and curry more favor with the North at a time of stalemate over the railroad and during elections the right looks set to win.”
