I wish I could send this message under trumpet and fanfare. But its not going to happen that way. Our defeats at the hands of the Mexican Armies is not at any fault of our own. We get to share that shame with the ability of congress to properly fund government run weapons facilities.
The Cost of WAR is great. WE ARE AMERICANS! We are the ones who want to beat the living shit outa anything that looks to steal our liberty. The cost Of WAR is ASTRONOMICAL if all weapons are bought on the "Fair Market". A fair market would be for us to invest time and effort into cultivating a stable supply of arms. I SAY a fair market is to produce the deaths of any man who threatens the LIBERTIES of this nation.

We didn't stockpile weapons or ensure that there were enough weapons industries to fight an extended war.
We started a war that was badly strategized, poorly explained, and not supported materially by the Command.
Our leaders let us down.
Screw explanations. I didn't sign up to exchange feisty words. I signed up pummel PEACE into the ground with or without justification.
I agree with my XO. But the point is the Military warned of dire consequences at crucial points of the offensive. Our words fell on deaf ears.
