Veterans Day (sh.itjust.works)

Is It Veterans’ Day, Veteran’s Day, or Veterans Day?

As November 11 approaches, some people may wonder how to write the name of the November 11 American holiday that commemorates the end of world-war hostilities in 1918 and 1945 as well as all who have served the U.S. Armed Forces. Do we use an apostrophe when spelling Veterans Day?

The answer is no. According to the U.S. Department of Defense, “The holiday is not a day that ‘belongs’ to one veteran or multiple veterans, which is what an apostrophe implies. It’s a day for honoring all veterans, so no apostrophe needed.”

The line being drawn isn't based on morality, it's defending yourself and even more innocent people. By the time that radicalized guy has already become a Nazi, it no longer matters why he did it - he's a danger to everyone, a rabid dog.

It absolutely sucks to see this happen to someone who used to be a person.
