War Veteran Speech- Stop This Madness.

Just recently, Mike Prysner broadcasted a speech that went viral. That is what I am here to talk about. Hearing Mike's inspirational speech made me stop and think. Think, about how amazing it really was; and also, to think about how he was right, about everything. We are the enemies, the ones' who continue to fight, and cause problems each day.



Before this, I would never have thought about how war is just another word for racism. Its the meaning; the synonym. We fight other countries to gain something, to clear out the people who are different from what we are. In our minds, its thought to be that only we matter, and why anyone different would be on this earth anyways. Well, each and every person is different from the rest, and thats what matters. Each of us have our talents, our weaknesses and strengths, and our unique personalities. Hearing this often should be enough to know that its not only our "kind" who matter. Everyone does, and dragging them onto the street or wrecking their homes is not the answer.

Mike had a huge point of knowing that the government and military would be the enemy. We make the problems, we cause them, but we never resolve them.. unless you call winning the war a good resolution. I have my strong opinions of disagreeing with war, but never for those reasons, until now. Many of you may disagree, as that is alright, since each person is entitled to their own opinions; but stop and think for a minute; think of what the world could be if war did not exist, and peace flowed through the universe. We continue to wreck our earth with war, destroying forests, killing people, etc. The list could go on and on, but I'll stop now.

My point is, is that this video taught me something I would have never known. Taught me more about war, and how it affects us and wrecks us. So, pass this video around more, take a look to see what you think about it, and share your opinions; because it has positively changed many people around our world. Thank gosh, one war is finished with not one a winner.
