True, true, true, but Uncle Sam doesn't routinely murder his own citizens, so let's not exxagerate the homefront situation just because of our bloody activities overseas, and occasional bloody activities at home (the MOVE killings, as you know, were perpetrated by one of Uncle Sam's nephews in the Philadelphia city government).

: Our government is plenty murderous, MDG. It doesn't murder Americans, for teh most part (although they dropped a bomb on a house full of black radicals and their kids about fifteen years ago). But in other countires, where we are not accountable to the local people, we have been in cahoots with some of the most bloodstained men in modern history. El Salvador, Guatemala, Uruguay and the like.
