Andrew Hintz, a UC Berkeley senior and member of Cal Democrats said, that recent casualties in Afghanistan hasn’t weakened his support for the war. 

“We’re fighting a war and part of war is casualties,” he said as he screamed at fellow students to go out and vote in Tuesday’s election. “I think that if you decide as a country to go to war, then you’ve decided to accept some casualties.” 

And he’s willing to accept as many casualties as necessary. “I don’t think there’s a threshold of a number of casualties,” he said.
