    Here's the video; it's shocking. I'm not sure why anymore.

    My therapist told me the way to achieve true inner peace is to finish what I start. So far today, I have finished two bags of M&Ms and a chocolate cake. I feel better already!

    Our politicians and leaders in the military are culpable if they stand by and do nothing.

    So 150 or so years of reconciliation and forgiving acceptance is suddenly washed away? This sudden need to voice our displeasure with our history and re-prosecute old grievances seems odd to me.

    No, we’re finally treating these traitors with the amount of respect they should have been receiving all along.

    This man is treated like a hero in South Carolina, with lots of things named after him in Beaufort.

    As long as we are talking about heroes, and about South Carolina.
