In one of my (non-published) stories, a young man is badly beaten up. When asked whether he wants revenge, he says “No.” They ask why. “Because I already gave them enough of my life.”
That’s what America needs to learn. Otherwise, they have already lost the war on terrorism. Like in “The terrorists win a comic victory.”
PS: My favorite Non Sequitur comic is the table top catapult. Anyone got a link?
