The sad thing is, while we (rightly) condemn the actions of the 19 year-old who detonated a bomb at the Boston Marathon, we send 19 year-olds overseas to drop bombs on people in situations that all-too-frequently lead to the deaths of innocent children, women, and men. Far from facing condemnation for their actions, however, this latter group of youths are either given immunity or outright praise for their violence.
This is an incongruity and contradiction which America cannot sustain if it ever wants to see peace, at home or abroad.

Liveblogging from the arena; Rufus Wainwright is amazing omfg. Paul on in t-39.
Always remember.
Under capitalism, it is perfectly possible to have starving people and unsold food in the same region.
Perfectly possible to have empty factories, decaying infrastructure and millions out of work.
To have too many houses and homeless people in the same street.
That is fucked.
