A whole generation has come and gone since the bombs dropped......but we still stand strong!"The mob of ignorance was at full bloom now;people had flocked to the stadium to hear her speak......to be fed lies, to be filled with what they wanted to hear:but not what needed to be heard.Did she forget the blood she had shed?The countless lives she'd trampled upon to get to her 'pillar'?To them, the people, she was a saviour.
