NOTHING TO FIGHT FOR

Jem—“Why don’t you shoulder a gun?”

Ben—“Ah ain’t got nothin’ against nobody in dis here world, and if I have I forgive ’em!”

Jem—“But your country is at war and you’ve got to carry a gun.”

Ben—“Man, the only time Ah carry a gun is when I’m after one lone man and not after an army!”

Jem—“But why don’t you fight for your country?”

Ben—“Ah live in the city!”
