Shawn Patrick
Los Angeles
“It’s like a preemptive strike, right? It’s not just about us. Today it might be another country, but tomorrow, who knows?”
Gwen Williams
Inglewood
“Nope. Never has and never will. With this war, we went in with no strategy, so we don’t even know what we’re fighting for. At least I don’t.”
Shawna Patrick
Los Angeles
“Not in my mind. To me, war just leads to more war and nothing ever gets settled for good.”
Robert Jefferson
Los Angeles
“It’s not about safety. It’s about power and domination and who controls what. … It’s all about the power.”
