Saying "Happy Memorial Day," doesn't feel right, as it's a day to remember those who died while serving in the Armed Forces. I'm sure we'd all be happier in a world where Memorial Day isn't necessary, and a sale on TVs isn't worth the death of anyone's friends and family.

Personal self-defense and war are very different, but one similarity is that many people prepare for them while hoping the need never arises. Fighting, even when necessary or justified, comes with consequences, and even when preparing for violence, we should work towards a world without it.

We certainly wish everyone a respectful and enjoyable day. It's a chance to spend more time with friends and loved ones, and (hopefully) get an extra break from work. We are also making a donation to the Joel Fund (link below), and for anyone looking to contribute to a good cause, you would do well with them.
