Date: August 06, 2010 12:58PM Funny how I've barely heard a peep about this from any source, it's not really a forgettable occurrence. The kids and I will be drawing chalk outlines in public spaces today. Lest we forget... lest we forget...

Date: August 07, 2010 05:32AM WTF are you talking about? I couldn't dicuss this with my boy today without dissolving into a puddle of tears. My mom was standing over my shoulder shedding a few as well. So long as there is the potential for this sort of monstrosity to occur we should all be very, Very, VERY sorry indeed. Certain quarters need to give their heads a shake. >:0( Edited 2 time(s). Last edit at 08/07/2010 05:33AM by coco. Re: It's the 65th Anniversary of Hiroshima today.

Date: August 07, 2010 03:02PM Holy crap, what does this say about humanity? My word but we've sunk to new and unexpected lows in the past few years. Was it always like this and I'm only now starting to notice? Gah, we are a dreadful species. Re: It's the 65th Anniversary of Hiroshima today.

You are so nearby, yet an unbridgeable ideological gulf separates your mentality from that of many across the Great Lake from you. [sigh] Re: It's the 65th Anniversary of Hiroshima today.

Date: August 07, 2010 07:45PM I really and truly don't understand that Tam. What do people think, that all those innocent men, women and children walking around that morning, going off to work and school, feeding their babies, kissing their spouses good bye for the day, that they all somehow deserved it? That it was justified? Really, honestly and truly, how can anyone sit down and imagine a city, a town, a community just like their own being... there is no right word to use here... being decimated in such a way, how can anyone ANYONE, regardless of ideology or anything else, feel that it was anything other than horrific and wrong wrong WRONG?! People were disintegrated! Babies died in their mothers arm literally falling apart, burned to a bloody mass, agony agony... WTF WTFingHELLo WTF? I can't live in a world where people think like that, it's just not possible. Gah :'( Re: It's the 65th Anniversary of Hiroshima today.
