Veterans should be entitled to crime victim benefits
   
Amid all the stories covering vets of Iraq, would it be appropriate to mention that those who died or were injured were the victims of the Bush/Cheney/Rumsfeld crime of taking us into war on false pretenses. To ignore the fact that American servicemen and servicewomen were sent into battle for nothing (except for a neo-con plan to control all the oil in the middle east)is to make it easier for others in the future to send our troops to fight without just cause. I salute and honor the vets today (all of my relatives were in WWII)I just wish they had served for a righteous cause.

racist – A statement of surrender during an argument. When two people or disputants are engaged in an acrimonious debate, the side that first says “Racist!” has conceded defeat. Synonymous with saying “Resign” during a chess game, or “Uncle” during a schoolyard fight. Ori

So how about "crime victim's benefits" to citizens whose publc and private properties have been damaged and destroyed by these vandals?
