    What happened to make Americans so easy to manage? -- Ché Pasa

    A nation of shopkeepers and sissies. Hell we even call men who drop 500 pound bombs on women and children, from so far up in the sky that they can not been seen, heroes. Yes, we call the practitioners of industrialized baby killing heroes.
