Bringing Troops Home From Afghanistan


  Should we as United States citizens want to be in Afghanistan. Are we fighting for a useless cause? We are losing lives everyday in a place that we should already be out of. Im sure we all have family and friends who have served or currently serving in Afghanistan. I want our troops, family, and friends home.
   We as US citizens should do everything we can to get our troops home. We should not sit back and watch our troops lose their lives. We should fight for them over here like they are fighting for us in Afghanistan. First off our voting goes a long ways to getting our troops home. We should vote for the person and his plans, rather than the party.
  To get to the point there is no rational reason to be in Afghanistan. Our initial goals were to end the government of the Taliban which had given Osama bin Laden a base where he could launch a world wide terrorist attack. We have done our job there. We drove the Taliban out and even killed Osama bin Ladan. We are just causing the people over there to hate us more than they already do. Lives on both sides of the fighting, are being lost every singe day. Lets bring our troops home!

Football and God

My name is Tyler Vann, and I am from North Sand Mountain HS. I am the only child but don't call me spoiled because I am far from it. I enjoy fishing, hunting, and sports. I love going to church and hearing about my Lord and Savior. I started QB at my high school for four years. I am on the football team here at JSU now, as a redshirt freshman. I cant explain to you how much football means to me. It teaches so many life lessons. It turns boys into men. I am a huge Alabama football fan. Nick Saban is my role model, I want to strive to be a perfectionist. As you can tell I am a football fanatic. I hope one day to be a coach that is remembered by my work ethic and my christianity.
