The problem is how imperialistic we've been getting but that's everyone's fault for electing the officials who make these choices. Don't blame the guy on the ground. And if you've never had to be in the military like me thank god but don't think for a second it's a free ride. It's paid for by the soldiers, airmen, marines etc. who go to war in your place. Recognize that enlisting can be a perfectly sensible decision and have a little respect for those who choose that path. Damn ungrateful hippies.
Go out to war in my place? Its more like serve in unjust wars created by the corporations that run this country. Wars that this country has no business being in. Wars in other countries that create more enemy's for the people of this country. Wars that only benefit the rich and powerful. They dont go to war in my place, they go because they are paid to go, then they come back and complain when they get maimed tortured. Its like walking on to an interstate and stepping in front of a car and getting hit. OMFG the car hit me. No shit! What did you think was going to happen. Its the same with soldiers getting shot and blown up. They come home and whine about a situation they put them selves in. Complain about a war they knew was bullshit to begin with. If i stick my leg in a sharks mouth knowing full well that fucker is going to bite it off then i have no reason to complain when he does.
I need to respect these people for their path? Idiots empowering a corrupt government, helping it invade other countries, destroying cities, killing civilians in record numbers, stealing wealth and natural resources, setting up phony governments, driving the inhabitants in to poverty. Yea those are all quality's i should respect.
You pay taxes. So why dont you just stop right there. I wonder how many bullets you've paid for with your tax dollars in your life time?
Thats the dumbest thing ive ever heard. He has no control of what his tax money is used for and he isn't the dumb fuck military personnel out there using those bullets to blow people away. Hey do you buy gas for your car? How many of your gas dollars have paid for arms bombs? You're an idiot! Is there a place on the tax forms that you can check that says i would like my tax dollars not to be used for bullets? And even if he wasn't paying taxes there are always shit heads like you out there to make sure the government gets all the tax money they need.
