Captain America where are you?

It's been almost a full year since the death of Captain America. His stance against Iron Man in the Civil War eventually led to his murder on the steps of the court house. The image of Cap lying on the court house steps should resonate with everyone, but you'll have a wide variety of opinions of what that image means. What it means to some is intense patriotism, or a dishonest ideal, maybe lack of interest, or they might see him as "The Man." It could be so many things. For me it's the death of a dream. The american dream so to speak. Growing up Cap was my favorite super hero. He was the one I could most relate too. Unfortunetly Cap fought his last battle in court. And look where it got him.

The death of Captain America can be viewed as a visible symbol representing the death of civil liberties here in America. That's the way I seem to see it. Some would like to believe he was killed off because morals, manners, truth and goodness. Are all of which a almost like a disease that people are trying to avoid. What better way to completely kill true decent living than to kill a super hero who possessed those very qualities. It's kind of ironic that Captain America the ultimate patriot and comic book symbol of freedom should die during the Bush Administration. Some will truly look back on these days as the death of America. And rightfully so, I guess.

We need CAPTAIN AMERICA now more than ever. We miss you my friend:(
