Another news story about a soldier turned conscientious objector. It's good to hear, as always, that there are people who agree with me. but i feel an immense sadness for them, the struggle they've had to go through in their minds leading up to their decision, and the struggle they will go through with the military to get out. This guy, Mejia, actually from Nicaragua, has gone AWOL to escape his return to Iraq. that's never a good sign, and it probably means he's had some mental truama leading up to it, as well as he probably won't get an honorable discharge.
My thoughts go to him today.
