I never said that I hated anyone I just dont like the sales thing to me it is different because Memorial Day is supposed to honor those that died fighting for this country and having a sale on such a day overshadows the meaning.The sacrifice that military members must make especially today is a very unfair burden I'll stand with them rather than with someone that wants to go shopping on a particular day.You'd think maybe I should spend some time with my friends and family at home or on a lake or something because a lot of people died so that I can and the people in the military spend months and years away form their friends and family perhaps for one day I'll enjoy being with my family rather than buying stuff that I do not need that is made in China.

I bother because I dont agree with it even if I cant win I'll stand up for what I believe in.You ever see those Nazi photos where they are about to hang the partisans and the one man has huge smile on his face because even though he is about to die he is happy to have fought the Nazis? That guy has my personalty.
