Judge ME, not my Government

My country was last fighting the right battle in WWII.  Since then, we've invaded countries to interfere in their national politics (Vietnam), gone to war for oil (Gulf Wars I and II) and stood by idly watching genocide (the act we helped to stop in WWII) in Rwanda, for which we didn't apologize until many years later, and now again in Darfur, for which we probably won't apologize for many years to come.  We are also responsible, nationally, for thousands of drug related deaths by not making safe drugs available, and shunning drug users so they are too scared to seek help.  Our prison system exists to keep criminals in jail, rather than rehabilitate them, so their children grow up thinking that jail is just another part of life, and it means less to them.  The prison system perpetuates itself for the financial sake of those who own the prisons.  We continue to discriminate based on race and religion all over the world, helping only those who we deem financially worthwhile. I am ashamed of my Government.  Judge me, not my Government.

it gives me a migraine putting flea control on my cats they act like I am going to hurt them and they hate the smell of the flea control chemical and I just don't want him licking it on his fur now he ran away from me and won't come out from behind the lounge chair and I gave him food and he is still offended. I just don't want him sick and dying from the chemicals if he licks it. I don't know what to do. he does this to me everytime making it so difficult but he must work out the fleas are not there after and his fur looks better, then the others run away and I have to get them all seperately unawares and they take off like wounded cats. its so upsetting when all I am trying to do is help them feel healthier. trying to get him into a cage to go to the vet is just crazy. this is were I have needed a man to help and no one has got off their hole to help me. I can't move furniture I near break my back making beds and all this spastic skanky scum slang whore of a doctor wang and his sluts at wello could say was " just keep shopping for fun" what about a clean house or a holiday or a real life not just shopping and having a over cluttered junk heap of a broken down house. what sort of health advice is that? stupid skanking whores they are. they don't know hardship and suffering they only see it in their patients they don't know poverty and hovel and squaller and discrimination and neglect and abuse first hand.
