Who among us is suffering with the violence and depravation of American torture, prisons, deaths, death penalties, empire, all over the news here, even CNN, the new Abu Gharayb, calls for closure of Guantanamo, and here we're hearing on Amerikkkan 'million selling hit' - If we don't destroy the world, we should at least kill ourselves off. I literally can't stand it, I'm not alone in this, the nightmares take over constantly, At least I shouldn't live long enough to see the world in ruins, what we've done, and at least I've done what little I could to turn back the butterfly. But we're all smelling the smoke of armageddon, the charring of human bones, the chemical soups we call air and water, the smouldering of the last free animals on earth... How does one cope with this? I'm suicidal? How do you explain Abu Gharayb? - Alan
