 Without their help, Kevin might have been much more severely injured than he was. We wouldn't have an outcome like that if people weren't willing to step forward to do their civic duty, even if they didn't have to.

They talk the talk but their kids aren't fighting in this war. Their families aren't suffering poverty. They don't know what they're doing anymore.
