From the other global warming thread.
I remember in elementary school the weekly blast from the practice airraid horns. We were told to get under the desks or if we were outside get under the hedges. I am still resentful at what I look back on as the big people (the adults) taking a piece of my childhood away. I the 80's there was a guy saying the Japanese had pretty much already bought the U.S. from exports and t-bills and our economy would collapse within a year. Now the sky is falling again and I have to ask if once again some entity is not trying to take away what happiness and peace of mind I still have left. Be careful how much of yourself you give to Governments and Chicken Little types that have no conscience or soul in taking tangible and intangible things away from you.

And the same thread.
Not intended to place blame as much as point out that it happens. There are "takers" all around you be they media, government, or do gooders with guilt complexes out to salve their own conscience by making you behave the way they think you should. I am sick and tired of it and I don't invest emotionally in the "end of civilization as we know it" of the week club.

Yes those bombs were real but children did not need to carry that fear at the expense of their childhood. Always examine the agenda of those that seek to have you change your behavior.
