Wow, we are getting close to where we honestly should just have a Dahir Insaat thread. They are all marvels of horridness.
Ohh as I found out (thanks Retsupurae) the whole disguising weapons as fruit trucks? War Crime.
What if - some people don't care about the Geneva convention, and just want to kill some people for whatever reason?

And everyone thinks it is. But the people who want to change it don't know where to start. "Change starts with you" becomes tiring quickly when being you realize being a good person in a community doesn't affect anything outside, and the effect within is marginal. Two Bay12ers I speak to have different opinions on it, but I can't remember either of them telling me where to start changing things, and thoughts related to why neither of them have an answer really hurt my idealism, but I brush it off because the state of things is intolerable. If you want things to change, find people who do, and search for the answer to the question of where to start changing things. Change starting with you is something I personally don't believe, but maybe having your idealism inspire people is the key to things? I dunno, but realizing idealism is a good revelation to have. Things can change, but it isn't as simple as getting up, going out, and changing the world.
I'd normally end this by saying something like "But what do I know, I'm just a kid", but maybe not being around long enough to be worn down by all of what's wrong and evil in the world is the key, since some events are just as likely to have people give up than they are to inspire people to get up and start trying to change things. I don't really want to say something cliche like "you can learn from kids", but it's just something to provoke some thoughts.
