Thanks for the responces, everyone. The story i thought didn't do the action any justice. It was just such a random act, it almost blew me away.
Its hard for me, because alot of my relatives are sick and in need of help and there is nothing I can do about it....Thats probably why I could never go to Cuba. I'd be too angry to go. I'd be so overwhelmed by it all. Its hard to have family 90 miles away, imprisoned in an island. Alot of people could never understand why Cubans would risk 5 days on a raft to get to Miami....this is why....there is no electricity, BARELY any food, and you are forced to attend the son of a bitch's political rallies (Castro). Frankly I feel for them all, and this is why I felt for the Iraqi people...alot of people do not know what it is like to have alll their freedoms taken away. My family is living it, everyday. And it kills me, knowing that my family's hands rests in the grip of a dictator.
