Thing is, I'm really not a nationalist. In fact, in my country I'm pretty much the OTHER option. But it feels like they're mocking the victims, not "picking a side." One person who very actively participated in the genocide in our war was sentenced, by an international court, to 11 years because she confessed to one part of the charge and all the others, including 2 for genocide, were dropped. After doing 8 years, she was released on "good behavior."
a) She's over 70. It's very hard to be on BAD behavior in her age.
b) There actually WERE complaints against her in those 8 years.
c) She was kept in a prison with a solarium and a beautitian and horses and what we generally consider a HOTEL.

This other person, even more involved in the genocide, has been caught after some 15 years of hiding, and is now REFUSING to appear on court (the same, international one). And the court is asking him to participate anyway. Kindly PLSKTNX.

At the same time, High Court in my own country changed a ruling from 20 years ago, saying that a certain city (SB) owes some company shitloads of money. The city doesn't have that kind of money and now land and houses from the city are going on sale. Houses that people live in. People who had NOTHING to do with that dispute... There's a slight chance that the court will change the decision, but in the meantime people are losing their homes. The mayor is planing a hunger strike and or trying to remove their city from the country if the decision doesn't change.

The only way this last story is connected to first two is that THIS is what the war was about. This is the country we fought for. I wanna SCREAM.

Also, this has nothing at all to do with the bandom and I will open an independent journal for this, but I can't ATM and I just needed to vent. All done now :)

Yeah, it's like, 'I'm so glad you're letting me speak here without putting me to jail, which is something I wouldn't have been able to do in the previous system.... but you are WRONG. WROOONG SO WROOONGGGG. You're MESSING EVERYTHING UP AND YOU ARE WRONG!' :)) But, yeah, the second you say "um, something seems a bit off here" you're the anti-government instrument of doom.

*facepalm* omg people can be so frustrating. First of all, if anyone is still alive to care about those graves, they'll be HAPPY to have the bodies buried properly. Everyone who doesn't care, won't care. We're still discovering mass graves from our war of 15 years ago and, yeah, people cry when bodies are found, but they always say "we're happy we finally have them back, we never knew what happened and now we do." It's not much, but it's some sort of comfort.

LoL True! Gabe actually said something like that once so, yay :D But, yeah. "Ryan cut his hair? OMG I HATE HIM!!" Um... good for you. Sure hope you never switch to the news channel.
