Do I want Mr. Bush "taken down" (by any means neccessary) because he "won"? Maybe. I am not going to lie about that.
The fact is Mrs. Sheehan is not one of those folks, yet... She's some housewife that had a son and lost him in a war that she no longer agrees with...
Besides, Vacaville, California is in the desert near 29 Palms. That is sheer military country. If you graduate from high school out there and are "considered a legal citizen", joining the military is about all you can afford to do... There's Fresno State, but they only accept football players... And CSU San Bernadino as well as UC Riverside are too far to attend... So the options for most young people in this young man's age group are limited... Corey Sheehan probably did not think he had different options other than joining the military and being about somebody...
Interestingly, he is more somebody in death than he was in life... It may be notorious... But folks know who he was...

Vacaville is Northern California, near Travis AFB. Twnety Nine Palms is in Southern California, closer to Palm Springs.
