Wait, you think you can fight GOD?

As a matter of fact, YES, I do think I can fight God.
Why? Because the truth can always be questioned. If "God" has no answers, then it's a LIE.
If someone can kneel down or bend over in blind obedience to some ineffable construct of a delusional imagination, I can equally dismantle it for what it is and dismiss it.

Yeah, that's the way they value the soldier, but how do you put a price on a persons life?

Also, might as well just scratch the cost of recovery off the list, politicians don't give a fuck about US soldiers after they're done with them, all they see them as at that point is waste
I find it hard to feel bad for someone who voluntarily joined the U.S. War Machine.

I feel the same way to an extent, but I almost joined it myself, so I might be able to give a little perspective..

A lot of the people put in that position simply have no other option or the options they do have weigh out to be less beneficial than the military. To some people, it truly comes down to homelessness or joining the military. To those people, I can't really fault them, the military option is attractive when you're looking at the real possibility of sleeping under a bridge or going without food.

It's no coincidence our voluntary force is made up of people who couldn't afford college or felt it wasn't right for them or couldn't get in, etc. The MIC is designed to recruit these people.

I saw a military ad for one of the nordic countries that was probably one of the best I'd ever seen, no bullshit, no lies, straight up 'this is what it is, this is what we're doing, join us if you think it will give you a better life even though some of the shit we do is fucked up'.. You try to send that message to American youth and you'd see recruitment numbers drop like sheskanks panties at a family reunion..

That'd be the brainwashed many

Also, you sound like a pussy


I'm not a bad ass by any means, but I assure you I'm no coward.

I'm not brainwashed. Felt the need to serve so I did.

I lost a lot of respect for the government after seeing the inner workings. The stupid shit they do with your taxes, might as well burn it. That doesn't mean I don't believe the oath I took.

Doesn't the oath you took rely on the idea that you were defending American freedoms?

There has been no point in time during my entire life I've felt my freedoms have been threatened by terrorism. If that's the case, how could the oath you took truly be genuine?

Obviously i did not make it a career. The oath I believe. That does not mean I believe in an over size military and going to war all the time.

Our military and our soldiers are abused. If their reputation wasn't trashed on pointless wars and if we actually took care of our soldiers people would have more respect for the military.

Exactly

There's also this weird idea that as citizens we have to support the troops no matter what, and if you don't, you're unamerican

@whitebb2727

How do you respond to that?

I believe in the constitution. I believe in freedom. I believe in the right to the pursuit of happiness. All of which is slowly being eroded.

No I don't believe you have to support the troops. People don't need to be dicks to them either just because of political views.

And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war.
12 His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself.
13 And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God.
14 And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean.
15 And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.
16 And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, King Of Kings, And Lord Of Lords.
Fight god. You think you can fight GOD? You are a nut, aren't you?

First you make up god and then say it wants to fight?
Quote some made up book? Sure, let's fight. Does god know kung fu?

You were abused on the altar, weren't you?

The inherent rights protected by the Constitution are being, and can only be eroded by US politicians, not terrorists

The only way a terrorist can take my rights away is by killing me. I'm more afraid of being killed by a Canadian than an Islamic extremist, which is to say, not at all

You're 8 times more likely to be killed by a cop in America than an Islamic extremist

We probably see eye to eye.

Its becoming a police state. Kinda why i mentioned the pursuit of happiness.

You know the oath says foreign and domestic. The domestic is the hard part.

No, baby boy. The real threat is they manage to turn this into an armed camp, like Israel....you know...actually terrorized. Bus bombing, theater, mall, attacks all fuck up all the time with rockets and car bombs.

A Police State will be established and you can see Jihad is well on the way to jacking our ass up into that. No justice, no freedom. Actual Terror.
