I feel like I gave my son to this country in an illegal and immoral war. I'll never get him back.

Everything I say comes from my heart - and it's the truth.

War is a barbaric tool of the war profiteers and Empires who employ them. War pits young people from the working class against other similarly poor, or disadvantaged humans, for nothing but the greed of the few. Only we the people can make war obsolete by not participating in the profound crimes of the profiteers and other war mongers.

My husband has always agreed with me philosophically.

One of my biggest inspirations is President Hugo Chavez of Venezuela. Yea, President Hugo.

Loyalty to the true, core values and roots of democracy is what makes a true patriot, not loyalty to a symbol of the country.

I'm just a regular mother who's trying to save lives and be the best human being I can be.
