    You’re being downvoted because you’re ignoring the current issue in the world right now. Right now this is a post where he said we need to hide the disabled veterans so nobody can see them. You said he’s right about that and went on about how we need to just make war go away.

    War is not going away right this second. So write this second you’re only real point is that yes we must hide the veterans. We can work towards making more go away in the future but that’s going to be centuries. If we even survive that long.

      That’s not what that says. He didn’t say we need to hide the injured veterans. He said “No one wants to see that”. It’s understood he meant hide them from sight. Hence the broken clock reference. I was saying the statement is correct, that nobody wants to see injured veterans. I then add that the primary way to accomplish that would be to reduce the number of injured vets. The second goal would be to ensure good healthcare if they become injured despite the primary goal.
