Memorial Day

[O]n behalf of the American people, I own the store, and I set prices, and I'll say, if you want to shop here, this is what you have to pay.

-- Donald Trump


Is this really the kind of thing our veterans fought and died for, for our highest leader to think of himself as a king who controls everything, including what people should pay for things they buy?

As our experience of the seemingly only growing weirdness of the above continues, perhaps on this Memorial Day we could consider the sanity and service of those in stories like this one about Beau Bryant (and the many like him).
