my current assignment for social studies is Canada and War. Let me know what you think of my essay if you got the time.
thanks
Gwely
War is mans humanitary spirit lost. It occurs today and cannot be overlooked. Whether we be attacked directly or not, our alliance with other countries demands our roll to be played out in the intercontinental battlefields. Fighting alongside our united nations empowers our force for what many feel is the greater good. Would I fight for such a purpose, or does a direct offence to my life be necessary for the fuel of my expendability? My role in this cannot be overlooked, for I am one of many…
Canada has joined in the war, to prevent others from occurring. This now makes us the enemy to our enemy. The Canadian spirit and support has written itself into the history of war. My civilian status is now a target in danger as I am seen with our Canadian name bulls eyed on my forehead and heart. My life and safety will not condone this, and now I am a fighter, a body count to our cause. Do I receive the badge of cowardice for lack of support in this? Many might ask, the answer is simply this. Canada is seen as a mentality in the minds of our enemy and my individuality does not exist; yet I continue to write this.
I will not write this essay on behalf of us as I am suppose to, I will write it on behalf of my opinion. We would die for our families and personal security, but in this case only seen as brave to fight for the families of others, or the greater cause be that what it may. Although this war is seen as a direct attack on us which cries attention to prevention, I would not holster a gun unless the flesh of my brotherhood is harmed, not my countries brotherhood. I will not be affiliated in any of this, because I don’t give a flying eagle perched on a one eyed pyramid or a maple leaf mentality about it. War tears all gratified meaning within me.
My opinions don’t matter even though I may be told it does. Why? We are governed with this in mind; the price of freedom is respo

............Why? We are governed with this in mind; the price of freedom is responsibility. And war is my responsibility if it comes to my doorstep. If I am handed a weapon, at least I’ll be able to vent off my teenage angst.
I will not fight for the cause, I will not feed the fire, and I will not speak on behalf of all Canadians.

I don't know about war, but Conan O'Brien taped 4 shows in Toronto last week and they're airing right now. That's a nicer story, try to do a report on him instead.

Good God, you don't write that badly on the messageboard...
Please tell me that's a joke.
If you're serious, rewrite that in plain English, unless you want to walk by the teacher's lounge and hear a room full of teachers laughing uncontrollably.

you bring up an interesting point about war as a forced homogenization of society...
