Mercy ! KxVx what are you majoring in at school ? Aggravation? Cool it some, you’re in the attack mode. Your no dummy, you know what he’s getting at. For example, if you were getting beat on by the bully of the block, I’m not going to go happily on my way and ignore it, i’m going to jump in and try to help you. We both might end up in the hospital but I’m gonna try to help. Same way with nations. If your neighbor needs help and is trying to help them selves you help them, by doing so you also help your self. That’s the way it goes if you’re talking about people or nations. As for Jack Lucas, he was a hell raiser and went his own way but if you were in deep do-do you would be proud to have him by your side. He wouldn’t hesitate to state his opinion or do what he thought best regardless of the punishment. He deserved every award he got and more. I bet you would be a good candidate for what we called our selves"Uncle Sams Misguided Children”. Have a good night.
