I can't believe that this is still an alotted military budget in today's chaos and world troubles. SU liberals detest any type of military build up and american confrontation but heck yea we'll support the air force band to come entertain our musical preferred genre. SU absolutely makes me sick today and what it reoresents, miss the days of SSU and complete community bond that was shared not this garbage today
