Want To Say Truth Is Just A Click Away

Warrant Officer Hugh Thompson, A True American Hero of mine,
with Andreotta and Colburn, dared to step over the line.

Senator sought his dishonorable termination,
suffered reprisals, threats, and intimidation,
for stopping more Abomination.

Survivors of My Lai want to say,
why did you murder our Loved Ones that day.

Colonel John Chiviington preached divine,
one of the most sadistic butchers in his time.

Granted amnesty, only condemnation,
for the slaughter of an Indian Nation,
nites make lice, ordered complete Extermination.

Descendants of Sand Creek want to say,
why did you mutilate our Forefathers that way.

The click is to Wikipedia by the way,
truth is Damm Them is what I want to say.

The watchman has blown his trumpet, the ringer has pulled the bell,
blares and tolls for thee, alas upon deaf ears fell.
