You Fuctard
To all of the people that I've overheard or read say today, "They were not heroes," I want to take just a moment to send out a big FUCK YOU!
Now, I know that's not usually my style, but the 1st Amendment gives me the right to rebut your gross intolerable ignorance.
Without the astronauts and engineers willing to strap their asses to a bomb and rocket themselves out of this atmosphere, we wouldn't have many of the positive advancements we have today. So the next time you're in an accident and call 911, show a little respect because it was those people that made the 911 satellite network possible. Or the next time you turn on the Weather Channel to see if your auntie in Florida is getting her ass kicked by a hurricane, remember them.
It is the job that these people commit themselves to that every day inspires some kid in a ghetto somewhere to step over his crackhead mother who is passed out on the floor, and get himself dressed and off to school. His friends dropped out a year and a half ago, but he's sitting in Physics class because he wants to be an astronaut. He wants to be a hero.
So fuck all of you who don't believe in what these people stand for and have dedicated themselves to because any person who peacefully strives to make the world a better place deserves to be shown our respect.
