the other side

the enemy is on the move, corporal. intelligence says there's millions of 'em.
they do, sir?
foreign invaders who want to destroy our civilization. well I'm not gonna let 'em. are the charges set?
they are, sir, but. . .
blow the bridge when they reach mid-point.
blow the bridge? the golden gate?
you heard me.
but. . . are you sure, sir? I mean, it's a national treasure!
you want to lose your humanity son? your family? your very soul?
no sir. I don't. but. . .
war is too important to be left to the politicians. I can no longer sit back and allow the communists to infiltrate, indoctrinate and subvert us, to sap and impurify our precious bodily fluids.
no sir. of course not, sir. but don't you mean 'commuters,' sir?
what's that?
you said 'communists.' aren't the people coming over the bridge. aren't they, you know, commuters? sir?
hell, don't try and confuse me with rhetoric! blow that fucking bridge.
yes sir. right away sir.
