I am attempting to join the ARMY.

Ah, now was that so hard horney finger? Now why didn't you come into this thread and gave some decent advice in the beginning but went into a tirade about wasting your life, American foreign policy and few youtube videos on it?

why do you want to waste your life?

I cannot think of anything worse or more pointless.

Unless you like killing poor, weaker people than yourself to rob their country of their natural recourses of course.

This is your 1st post in this thread no? It definitely sounds like 1 is trolling here or attempting to be as insulting as possible to the op of this thread. Even Miles who definitely is against ideas like this, refrained from coming into this thread insulting people on what they want to do with their life.

Said it all already

you just don't have the mental capacity to come up with reasoning why I can't have the opinion that I have, and because of that you come up with this very VERY lame 'trolling' accusation.

It's called Respect. Respect for other people feelings and Respect for other peoples choices in life (be they right or wrong)

"Freedom of Speech" is a basic right we all are given in our countries (Not all have it) given by the government and protected by the military.

In your opinion, you are not trolling. In my opinion, you are shitting on mine and every one else's family who has every fought in a war, served in the military or died, to help protect your right/freedom(s) to say what every fancies your thoughts on the day.

Respect cost you nothing to give to some one but can cost you plenty when you lose it.

Both my grand parents fought in WW2. And I know that one of them (who actually got medals for being a war hero) was far from proud of his service.

Bombing afghanistan and iraq is not protecting my freedom, my freedom was never in danger from either of those countries. The faulklands didn't protect my freedom, Vietnam didn't protect my freedom. All were pointless and just cost lives very very needlessly, and were all put into operation on a lie. The sooner people realize this and stop encouraging each other to go out and do these stupid things the sooner we can stop the pointless loss of our loved ones.

In my life time I'm not greatful to the army for anything. NOT ONE THING!

The only thing I am pro war about, is it is the last line of natural selection we have. Although that is not really true anymore when you look at the statistics of troops from the west who died in afghanistan/iraq compared to the number they anhiliated.

Seeing as this is in the 'let's get it on' section of this forum I am breaking no rules by EXPRESSING MY OPINION on this topic.

What about SALT II?

SALT II?

Please enlighten me. This is obviously something I've missed and have no clue about and could be the thing that makes me change my mind on this whole issue.

Strategic Arms Limitation Talks - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I have no idea how this could be relevant to the current discussion.

Now we are imposing a relevancy requirement?

If we did that this forum would cease to function.

I'm just sitting here wearing a monocle and eating the popcorn. Hornfinger is quite right, but Boozeboxer has truly altered the course of the thread through the old fashioned SALT 2 diversion tactic.
