You have IMO no concept of Country.


Thank you....I will take that as a compliment......

My concept of Country goes beyond U.S. and N. America......

It goes all around the globe....I'm an earthling.....we are all earthlings living on a little tiny rock that is hurling through space.....

Can't we try to live together in peace and harmony.?....


You have my star and understanding with this post.
You will get my respect when you acknowledge America's Best.
The men and women that put life, limb, family and future after COUNTRY.
It starts with America with us. PERIOD

The military science understands the long term effects of soldiers exposed to violent acts over a prolonged period. But yet they do very little to prepare newly released Vets. I say released because this psychological imprisonment is also a factor in the equation.

In otherwords, they know fullwell a % of Vets are going to be re-wired as they return to their wives. Call it collateral damage or what ever... The human brain can only absorb so much violence before it starts malfunctioning. Now the wife has a husband who's hard drive has glitches of PTS, and sometimes the brain is shut down for good.

The military should have this posted in large print on the application:

JUST DON'T JUMP INTO THE MILITARY... DO SOME DAMN RESEARCH ON THE AFTER EFFECTS OF WAR & VIOLENCE... BECAUSE YOU MIGHT BE PRONE TO BECOME A WALKING BASKET CASE.

It's sad, but this is what one gets when they sign up for the program. If you are a boxer, expect to get knocked out... If you handle snakes... expect to get bit... and if you join the armed forces... expect to get killed or loose your mind...

And if you are to punk to take that challenge you are sheeple.
The folks that went to the gas chambers were sheeple.
Balance your retoric with history. IMO

You like to run your mouth like you've had first hand experience in the military. I mean, from the way you talk you know every in and out of things. So, tell me, and I'm curious, what job do you think I do in the Marine Corps? Choose your words wisely for they will give away just how ignorant you may or may not be. You don't have to get it right, but I'm just curious on what you'll answer with.

Well which is it? you looking for peace and harmony or what?


Because quotes like this from page 1 will never bring peace and harmony.



It's time for these brain-dead grunts to start using their own minds and start thinking for themselves.....

It's time to Evolve....

You and I know the monster would or could not get near this one because it is just to simple.
The only thing you can be as a leather neck is a part of a landing force.
This may explain it a little better.
The Corps' role has expanded significantly. The Marines are unique
They have a mission statement, the Marines "shall, at any time, be liable to do duty in the forts and garrisons of the United States, on the seacoast, or any other duty on shore, as the President, at his discretion, shall direct."

Don't expect any help coming from the military, they are so brainwashed by their leaders, they are good for nothing......

And it will be us...the common citizen that has to free the military grunts from this criminal government ...?.....


So how are they brainwashed, during their 12 or so weeks in boot camp? How about our college campuses where we have young innocent minds who are under constant control and influence by extreme left wing professors for 4 to 8 years?

Now that is brainwashing....

Our soldiers are our children and yes I support them. It's a cruel world we live in and always has been. Our soldiers will get bashed by people who sleep eight hour a night. They'll get bashed by people who don't work at all. Our soldiers will get bashed by their own countrymen sitting on their ass watching the football game and eating turkey on Thanksgiving day. But for every soldier their is brothers and sister, parents and relatives who would die for their soldier if need to. I thank everyone of the soldiers for having the will power and guts to serve. I thank them for letting us choose our religions, celebrate our holidays and to be able to bash them if you want without retribution. Thank You soldiers!

Are you serious...


You just answered your own question...


It's mind control from day 1 of boot camp...and it doesn't end till you get out and go see a shrink..


And you used the word 'left-wing' in your post.....just further proves my point of brainwashing...

I have a couple of questions for some of the posters in this thread.

Is serving one's Government the same as serving one's Country? If yes, is this still the case if one's Government begins to act against the best interest of it's Citizens?


Edit to add:

Maybe if that soldier is lucky, you will appear in his sights.


There have been a few threads that have posed the question whether U.S. soldiers would fire upon U.S. citizens if ordered. It seems at least one would consider that opportunity "lucky" as long as he believed that the citizen held a dissenting view point.

It's people like your self that pushed me into service of this Nation 29 years ago and why I serve today! You couldn't hold a candle to people like me, so you feel the need to bash us! I’m what you dreamed of never becoming. Strong, self reliant, self sufficient, in control 90% of the time. The other 10% is that part of me that wants to kill people like you. I hold it in check 90% of the time.

Now before you go on another self emaciating rant, let me tell you a little about people like me that serve in the US Armed Forces.

I have a Bachelors degree in History, an Associates degree in Information Technology – Do you hold advanced degrees as well?

Are you trained to fight for your very survival in hostile environments, be it overseas or in the United States? Are you willing to die to protect someone you don’t even know?

I didn’t think you where, you’re a sorry piece of human garbage that gets off bashing people that are better then you.

Hes right, we need to support our troops. Our if you dont like em be respectful about it when you do talk about em. They try to fight for freedoms that are slowly getting taken from us. If Iraq is you big issue dont take it out on the boys overseas, support the troops not the war, its as simple as that.

i love how someone who has never been to boot camp is gonna tell me about bootcamp...

i suppose your gonna tell me next that they put salt peter in the food and subliminal messages in our training?

the RDCs or DSs that run boot camps are just like us... alot of them have been in 8, 9, 10 years (except the senior enlisted) and are either doing it for a billet or because they like yelling.

i sincerely disbelieve they are brainwashing us.

now i have always been a little paranoid and untrusting of TPTB, and i will say that there was one video at the end of bootcamp with charlton hest talking about nation and history, all of our graduating divisions were seated in the drill hall watching this video on a 10ft projector screen. that was the only time i was sketchy. but then again, the sound didnt really work, i couldnt hear it and then i fell asleep, so maybe they did git me

Pssst, the saltpeter is in the corn.....pass it on.

And I always laugh when the the posters try to tell us what boot was like. Of course, when you post a rebuttal, they say that just proves you're brainwashed!

Wx,

I'll ask again. Do you believe serving one's Government is the same as serving one's Country?
