let all the politicians join the service if it's such a great idea imo, but of course none of them every would, and that alone should tell you all you need to know..

Bah I already said death doesn't matter lol. I mean at least I'd do something that would help somebody out.
And the benefits are just awesome.

And everybody that joins comes out like a fucking beast lol.. They have such an amazing mental strength.. Their discipline is top notch.. And every girl likes a dude in uniform lol. So many hidden benefits too.

You gotta risk it to get the biscuit.

I think being shot by a jealous husband would be a badass way to go.

vet's make up 1/4 of the homeless population, that's 25% to you and me, so that theory just went right out the window.. some great mental strength they must have, most of them i see are standing talking to themselves under some under pass...

i'm not trying to be a dick, i'm just a realist, and don't want to see anyone get fucked up doing some dumb ass shit, but hey, it's your life m8, do as you see fit, just realize it's not all it's cut out to be, and the pitfalls are many..
