This is real talk. you know its kinda strange that we got alot of soldiers thats over in the war giving their blood sweat and tears in the war, when we have our own war thats is left untouched. I held in my peace long enough, another country is being rebuilt because of the war, but what about the cities here that needs cleaning up. decent people cant walk the streets because drunk drivers, rapist and murders and drug dealers are roaming free causing havoc, and more troops are being sent to iraq to be killed in a war that seems over. its been years and more troops are still being sent over. i respect them for defending their country but like i said what about the war over here? the homeless people on the streets? i believe if we took the effort we putting on this war and put it in our own country we would have much success. what do you think?

It's not really a war which your talking about. Stuff like drunk drivers, homeless people etc. are part of the society your in. This stuff is present in many countries, I think even all countries. What would you do anyway, with troops?

Its not troops, once you really think about it thats what wrong with society now. if we gave a dam about helping some of this situation it wouldnt be as bad as it is and some places is just like a war believe it or not, you just wont hear about it on the news. from street wars, gang wars and dealing with hardships of life, thats a war and hell in its on

Agreed! This is always an issue and seems to a blind issue to the powers that be. They do not fell we need help. Do we see anyone coming to our rescue, no! Would they even if we asked, no! Does America care about America, no! They only care about where they can make the most money in the end. It sickens me to see the problems right here in our face and then watch our troops go to another country. We need politicians that care enough to fix the problems. Only thing is we don't even have any good people running for political office.
