All you young men/women asking questions about listing. Do?

you realize how many Questioners are commonly calling you killers and cowards. That they are more concerned about the terrorists then you?

Update:

I'm sorry, but I meant to say "enlisting" not listing.

Update 2:

Oops, screwed up again. Thank D.M. for pointing out my mistake. First one this year. LOL

    The trick is to ignore people, like the comment above. I enlisted about 2 years ago in the US Army, and coming from California, the bay area specifically, you can imagine the reactions. I've heard some things said to me, makes it hard to maintain your bearing at times. But, I've also been thanked, and supported by the same community as well.

    I'd do my job the same either way, whether everyone was for or against me, I enlisted because I felt it was right, not because of the president, or a war, or anything else. So, to finally answer your question.. Yes, I realize how many people say those things. And they have their right to, and I wouldn't dream of keeping them from it. I swore to defend and uphold the constitution of the United States, and the rights it guarantees.. and that includes free speach, and the right of every guy and gal out there to abuse it and say whatever hateful, ignorant load of junk they want. Good for them.

    Just like I have all the right to ignore it. :)

    i've got not had any questions deleted yet. yet I even have had 2 solutions deleted. the 1st answer became deleted because of the fact I stated as a guy a chauvinistic pig for announcing he became happy there have been no female airline pilots, and that he may be scared if he became on a airplane and found out the pilot became a female. He became incorrect besides approximately there being no female airline pilots. interior the 2d answer, I merely stated that yet another answerer had a profound could desire to have faith men have been smarter than women people, and that he continually asked stupid questions approximately feminists. They could no longer stand the actuality, i assume.

    Now now ,be nice.These young folk really believe the filthy lies that Bush spewed about why he chose to wage his illegal war against Iraq that has slaughtered over 400,000 innocent humans.

    Where else can a young person engage in such slaughter with impunity? Where else can a person torture and kill prisoners ? Where else can one rape and generally raise hell without any accountability.No,all soldiers are not so inclined but as we have seen in the past five years,many are.

    Some believe the filth spewed by Bush that GOD has blessed his Iraqi atrocity when in fact all the mainstream Christian Churches including even Bush's own Methodist Church has declared Bush's Iraqi atrocity ANTI-CHRISTIAN !!!!!

    Some of these ignorant youngsters believe that it is their PATRIOTIC DUTY to go slaughter humans in an illegal war of choice.

    Only in a nazi Hitler like country is PATRIOTISM allowed to TRUMP one's own MORAL/ETHICAL CODE.Is that what America has become and remember the famous citation of Samuel Johnson : "The last refige of a scoundrel is PATRIOTISM" and BUSH is one evil lying scoundrel.

    Some even believe in the BIGGEST LIE of all and that is the US is in Iraq to bring them FREEDOM,DEMOCRACY and LIBERTY .

    Pure un-adulterated crap.The US is in Iraq for the same reason they have been in the Middle East for 100 years ; the same reason that the US un-believably destroyed the DEMOCRATICALLY ELECTED government of Iran in 1953 ; the same reason it installed their own right wing murderous dictator puppet in Iran from 1953 to 1979,the Shah of Iran; the same reason that from 1979 to 1990 the US DESPICABLY MILITARILY,POLITICALLY AND ECONOMICALLY FULLY SUPPORTED THE VILE SADDAM; the same reason that the US to this day fully supports other murderous dictatorships in the region from Saudi Arabia to Egypt. WHY ?
