Happy Birthday...

[Duplicate_10]

Now that you said what you actually do, you're not scoring any more points for your side of the argument.

Retire good sir, and allow Kist a happy bday.

Birthday officially closed out 1 day ago. We're rolling into the other part of September known as 9-11. I guess ironically this patriotism thread can make nice now in a unified care bear stare. You don't need WMDs when you've got care bears.

[Madmardigan]

Good on ya buddy.

I mean, if you really are doing this, awesome. With that kind of perspective, I just don't know how you made that initial statement. It would have taken all kinds of wonderful drugs for me to type out anything like that.

why, if you can point out how in anyway the statement is untrue, I'm not sure me saying that it's not fair to judge all people in the military based on lumping them into one group is at all untrue, or in any way anti-military.

Just freaking drop it, or go change that offensive post. It ****es me off every time I see it or see it quoted. It's tone alone makes it a slam against anyone who has or who might choose to serve in the military - whether you intended it to or not.

[alchilito]

people join the military for a lot of reasons, While sure, Some are just huge losers in highschool and think joining the military will make them cooler, see kistilan, others do it because they have nothing else to do with their lives, and some do it just because they are stupid and think they will defend america by killing some poor ****er in iraq. A lot of people in the military join because they feel it is their duty to their country, or that it is the honorable thing to fight for America's freedom and defend their way of life. Or because their fathers and fathers fathers were military so it is just a way of life. So it's really not fair to hate on people in the military, people join for all reasons, some noble some not.

I'm not buying this. I call your bluff this is BS.

just because it's more fun to allow yerself to be ****ed off because i insulted your value system, does not mean that when i revise my statement to make it more clear, and it no longer should offend you, does not make it BS.


look man, I apologize for offending anyone in the military or with contact to the military. The statement I wrote definitaly could have been written more clearly, and wasn't thought out very well.

I think we should rest the issue at that.

I don't know if I like you or not Mad, but I don't agree with the public moral lashings this forum tends to deal out.

Madmardigan and Tovok Tavokyour you two idoits are whats wrong with this country. Its ignorant people like you who want your right to say anything you want and sit and play voilent game (which btw involve going and killing). With out without fine american soldiers we'd be speaking german right now. Well those of us that arent jewish, asain, black, middle eastern, russian, ect.

Yes that was a past war and this is is "dumb" right?

Let me explain something about the current war that they wont tell you on tv.

I work now in an engineering firm (former Army). One of my co workers is CurdKurd. He is from the northern mountian region of IrqaIraq. He has been home in about 10 yrs. He his wife and kids were forced to leave with only and hour to pack because he had been working for an american contractor over there. In Irqa Curds are basicly lower than the low. When this war broke out he told me he was happy because now that the Americans have overthrown Saddam he could now go see his mother who he hadn't seen in 10 yrs.

Me, I was a soldier like my grandfather, his father, his fathers father, and so one because I belive in the princibles principles of this country. Not because I want to kill, but because if it come to me killing to protect it then so be it. Even if it means that ignorant cowards try to look down on me.

Edit: I forgot happy birthday Kistilan.

How are we ignorant? You say "we want our rights to say whatever we want". Yes that is true and is one of the basic amendments of this country, granted to every citizen. Save NO ONE. I, in fact, don't play this violent video game, I merely browse the forums. I do however, play Halo, which is violent, but the fact is, its pixels on a screen. Trust me, ending the life of Boss Jitik is MUCH different than killing or harming a fellow human being. I'm not sure what your point is about the fact that we would all be speaking German right now if it wasn't for WWII, I'm not here to argue the events of WWII or the outcome of what could have happen if WWII hadn't had American Soldiers in it. You can't predict anything about history if it never happen, so don't say we would all be speaking German because theres no way of ever knowing what COULD have happen if we didn't join.

You are the type of person that makes this world a bad place. I am not willing to kill other human beings to "protect".

BTW, just found this. Completely contridictory, word for word you said "you who want your right to say anything you want" then later in the paragraph you said "I believe in the principles of this country". SOMETHING IS WRONG HERE! Please save yourself and open your mind!

I get how you take offense to people and their statements slamming the military. But no one in this thread has taken notice to TommyBoy's post slamming anti-military people, isn't there something to be said about that? (just as much grammar ignorance in TommyBoy's post as Mad's post so have fun )

[Madmardigan]

I was gonna point out he spelled kurd, curd. But then i thought maybe his buddy is a cheese making byproduct.


and just for the record, i'm not anti-military.

[Tavok]

Just because someone refuses to fight does not make them a coward. You need to read up/watch on your Gandhi. He was truely incredible. And approach it with an open mind, not your "gunslingin'-yeehaw-shoot-em-up" mode of thinking.
