Some people in our country truly believe that we should allow terrorist attacks and that there should be no such punishment for these "religious acts". Some people think that as an American soldier in Iraq you would have a problem with bringing justice to such a terrible sector of human existence that we have all turned a blind eye to for far too long. Some people think that we should not own guns so that we can not protect ourselves. This way you can easily be killed or raped 1000 times which is the only way you are going to gain enlightened from the experience. There is no ??enlightenment? in fighting back is there?

I say: BULLSHIT!

Police kill people and get killed every day. In fact, I would say that there are far more bad cops then there are bad soldiers. So in the reasoning that it is bad to kill people and get killed by people, there should be no cops anywhere! Complete and total anarchy is the right answer?

NO..

Killing people and dying aren??t on the top of my list of favorite activities but I have done one and inevitably will do the other one day as well. In the essence of the other sides?? argument I do believe that any congressman that makes a decision to send this country to war should at least stand a chance of getting an M-16 and a plane ticket to the front lines. It use to be to hold a government office (like congressman) you had to serve in the military.. today many of these rejects (politicians) that send our boys to their deaths have never even seen a war. Most refuse to go to Iraq now.. especially the lefties.

I was a vegetarian for 8 years because I didn??t like what had to happen to a cow for me to eat a cheeseburger.. I always buy ??cagefree? eggs.. I am a nice person and most the guys in the military are decent people. I did what I had to do to make the world a better place and so people with a different perspective on life could have that perspective without worrying about being ethnically cleansed.

So in the end.. I guess I can say that I ??reconciled? some terrorist ass and brought to them.. "enlightenment" and I??m proud of it!

Well said.
It seems the people that protest the war are just way too idealistic.
This is not a perfect world.
And there will always be violence and war.
I can't imagine with the way humans are ever having total peace.
It would be nice.
But it's totally unrealistic.:thumbsup: So smoke a joint and share it with someone from another religion.
The only thing I have to disagree with is how you said the lefties wont go to Iraq.
Shit the prez is barely even in Iraq. And he had a hand in starting this war.
