On September 17, 2005 my older brother Anthony was killed by a roadside bomb. He was five years older than me.

When i got out of high school i mentioned the idea of signing up to my parents and my mom just broke down my dad told me “As long as air is in my lungs, you are not joining any branch of the military”

Sept. 17 is three days away and i was thinking of my brother and i thought i would make a topic like this

The war has taught me to form my own opinions. My parents don’t influence me. They don’t even know what my opinions ARE. The media doesn’t influence me. I make a point of disregarding subjective details. It has taught me that the mainstream media doesn’t always report everything. And it’s taught me that Americans have apparently become mostly left-wing biased ignorant fools that are convinced that they know better than the person the fucking ELECTED to lead.


So in other words, it’s turned me into a hateful, spiteful person on the inside, but I manage to keep my knives to myself.

"Wake me up when September Ends”- Green Day

Seems fitting.

It’s not about money. It’s about sending a message. Everything burns.

Indeed it is.

Problem is that song wasn’t political. People made their own connections to MAKE it political.

It’s a song about Billie Joe’s dad dying. He died in September when BJ was a kid. So that’s how it fits.
