Justice, for one. If someone walks in your house every day and takes a shit on your table every morning, if you stop him, while you will not negate the past shit, you will prevent shit in the future. I don't want them shitting on my table anymore.

It will save about a thousand soldiers' lives, at the rate we're going. I don't want them to die. I'd rather they be home actually protection our country instead of being he private army of the corporations.

It's okay to cry, so long as you're still taking action.
