THIS VIDEO IS INTENDED TO HONOR THE MEMORY OF SGT. RYAN WOOD, KILLED IN ACTION IN IRAQ, JUNE 21, 2007, WHO WROTE ABOUT OUR COUNTRY'S MISPLACED PRIORITIES. IT IS NOT INTENDED TO SMEAR BRITNEY SPEARS.
THREE WEEKS BEFORE RYAN'S DEATH, HE WROTE:
"WHAT THE HELL AMERICA?? What the hell happened? Any intelligent American might ask themselves throughout their day. While the ignorant, dragging themselves to thier closed off cubicle, contemplate the simple things in life such as "fast food tonight?" or "I wonder what motivated Brittany Spears to shave her unsightly, mishaped domepiece?" To the simpleton, this news might appear "devastating." I assume not everyone thinks this way, but from my little corner of the earth, Iraq, a spot in the world a majority of Americans could'nt point out on the map, it certainly appears so. This little piece of truly, heart-breaking news captured headlines and apparently American imaginations as FOX news did a two hour, truly enlightening piece of breaking news history. American veiwers watched intently, and impatiently as the pretty colors flashed and the media exposed the inner workings of Brittany's obviously, deep character. I was amazed, truly dumbfounded wondering how we as Americans have sank so low. To all Americans I have but one phrase that helps me throughout my day of constant dangers and ever present death around the corner, "WHO THE [expletive] CARES!" Wow America, we have truly become a nation of self-absorbed retards. ... This world has serious problems and it's time for America to start addressing them."
