He passed a few years ago..I came across the article while googling something else..thought some might not be aware and interested in his story =========================== "Romero traveled to Arlington National Cemetery in 2010 to visit Kennedy's grave. "I felt like I needed to ask Kennedy to forgive me for not being able to stop those bullets from harming him," he told StoryCorps. He bought his first-ever suit before the visit. "When I wore the suit and I stood in front of his grave, I felt a little bit like that first day that I met him. I felt important. I felt American. And I felt good."

Always have and always will. Drifting, and a hard, purposeful left turn on post 3 are different scenarios. It was a bomb that effectively ended the thread. I'm out. Defend yourself all you want. |
