i saw a bumper sticker on a vets car once that said: if you havent been to iraq or afghanistan, then shut the fuck up.
An equivocal bumper sticker that attempts to dismiss all debate in an assertion of superiority proves fuck all. The enemies of the U.S. are the idiots who self-righteously increase the cycle of violence that they or the next generation can only come to rue. It appears that, in general, if you're in the army you're either avoiding prison or too much of a mule to do anything useful other than provide cannon fodder, or a hypnotized conformist defending Daddy's values. I may be a cry baby and a soft ass leftie, in which case war is not for me (thank God), but I must say that peace as a philosophical concept is not for the kids who played with too many GI Joes and never grew the fuck up.

I'm sorry, but this kind of thinking is dangerous and will keep the bombs detonating until doomsday. When you said "so?" in your later reply, that was possibly the most disgusting thing I've read in ages. Why does the U.S. have enemies, anyway? Innocent victims, right?

I know I'm wasting my time here, and that anything I say will be instantly dismissed. I guess I have to make at least a feeble attempt to defend humanity.
