It has been my experience that most of the men and women who have risked their lives in service to their country have a much higher level of maturity than the pseudo-intellectual punks who make so much noise criticizing them. For many, it's not a matter of how much money they can make, near- or long-term. It's about a little thing called duty to country, and I thank them all.

Thats because they lack the matter in the skull that produces thoughts and feelings. Similar simple pressure sensories in an uncomplex nervous system are common among the lowest of creatures also!

SF are an exception to the moronic rule, as yes, they do require a higher degree of smarts.
Youre right, seppuku, Im just an *******, *****, whatever... But I sleep well at night As for being cocky and know it all ... I just seem to know it all compaired to people like you with no arguing skills what-so-ever. Cocky? Yes ... But if you could come up with something halfway articulate then I would listen with open ears and an open mind. Remember, this topic discussion is a matter of opinion. People in the world will not always share the same views... now refer to my last post about media and you will see where I'm coming from.
Also, I never said they werent nice people... lots of them are great people and love to help, that even seems to be one of the armed forces new marketing points!
And tell ya what, when one of your friends dies so I can continue on with my feeble existance, I'll be greatful for his/her heroic acts. I just dont make a corelation with some 18 year old kid popping off a few rounds in iraq and saving my life. Dig me?

I think its funny how you make an arrogant broad stereotype comment and think you know everything. Saying that all Marines are stupid under the age of 30 is the most ridicules thing I have ever heard. Many of the Marines I know have college educations and are not stupid. That comment you made is stupid and shows where your intelligence level is at. It’s fine to disagree with the government but not okay to shun our troops. Not every 18 year old has rich parents to send them away on New Years Eve vacations every year, so they get a job. And the military is a job. One that contributes to society in many ways. You many not like the military and its ways but if it were gone you’d miss its benefits.

I'm glad everyone agrees with the military statement. I thought it was funny to post and thought some people would get a small chuckle and a little more pride in their country and military forces.
Also, I'm glad sidewinderx7 can sleep safe and well at night because of the freedom and safety the military and my father has given him.

Jesus christ, dont you guys read my whole post before replying? lol
Just about everything you say has already been covered previously.
Youre right, your father is giving me my freedom to sleep at night. Because without him, I wouldnt have the luxury of closing my eyes and laying down.

AMEN
i'm so ******* sick of people criticizing 'the war'.... 'the war' is just a general term that all of the pseudo-intellectual punks use to generalize everything they hate about what's going on with our country. PLEASE, God, Buddha, Allah, whatever or whoever the **** you pray to, wake these idiots up.
you're pissed off about the president, your job, the economy, your life sucks, blah blah blah.
"I don't support the war in Iraq, but I support our troops"
to me, that doesn't make any sense at all. support the men and women risking their lives for our country, but don't support how they're risking it?
Ok, I think I'm done for now, gotta go make a booty call
more to come later

I just don't criticize what I couldn't do. I know for a fact that even basic training would probably kill me, physically or mentally. I'm an academics-based person but I don't think that I would have the fortitude of mind to put up with most in the Army/Marines do. I have a grandfather that was in the Korean War, and an Uncle (passed) in Vietnam. Right now, I don't have any close personal friends involved in some sort of military, but I have in the past. The way I see it, it's different strokes for different folks. The people I used to know were like any other person I generally hang out with (somewhat intellectual, genuinely nice) they were just bigger (a lot) than me.
