When we hear a word we mentally conjure up an image, emotions, feelings, etc from our memory. Retrieving what that word means to us individually.

War. What does that word mean to you?

Maybe it's parading troops

What a sad sick joke of a world that allows this to happen, even glorify it, justify it.

Anyone who says as adults we can't reach agreement through discussion, whether they're a lying politician, hate filled preacher, or arms merchant is a number one c*nt in my book.

Enough said.
