World War 1 ended. The entire premise of free society is that war comes to an end, there is a such a thing as peacetime. Somehow that idea has died, and with it morality and social conscience. Comparing our spat with a few mountain dwelling cavemen on cellphones with a global War to threatened the existence of civilization itself is beyond ignorant. It's criminal intellectual negligence.
