Lets try something together. Just follow the detailed steps below. If you do it, I'll do it. I promise.
1. Buy Gun
2. Load Gun
3. Take the safety off
4. Insert gun in mouth
5 Pull trigger
and this is totally not needed. getting way too worked up over this.
Oo and its not even funny.
It wasn't supposed to be funny. I want the weak links out of my gene pool.
This guy is coming in here and making statements like "All Military Personel rape girls" and every member of the military is "warmongering". He might as well be equating them to "Knuckledraggers', like some During and Post-Vietnam Sentiments towards the armed forces were. I can't stand someone acting like that towards our military. We may not even owe them, but they don't deserve this. Its no better than hating all the Blacks, or all the Jewish. I don't like discrimination in any shape or form (Yes, I know, I'm descriminating against Descriminators. I can live with that.).
We barely remember who or what came before this precious moment; We are choosing to be here right now -Tool, Parabola

I think he's saying if someone comes here more or less attacking people with nothing but blatant ignorance and lack of appreciation for what they do, then making a smart ass comment back is justified, I tend to agree.

First, the military has never 'commanded' respect. However society has decided to backlash the Vietnam War era and society has deemed the military deserves respect. And society is right. Service in the military is no fun. Yeah, there are good times to be had, good friends to be made, and cool things to do, but they don't make up for the 'unfun' parts of the job. Anyone who provides a service similarly deserves respect, society has just gone overboard in recent years with demanding we respect our military. Do the people in the military like it? Yes, but they did not demand it. Nearly all the military people I know would be just as happy with a simple, "Thank you."
Your comment about 'defending us' is off base. It is not the military that projects US power to foriegn shores. It is the civilian elected government. People join the military for many different reasons, one of which is to 'defend their country.' Just because you disagree with the nomenclature the civilian government has placed on the military action does not garner any less respect of the individual that is in the military.
People do volunteer to go into the military. No other organization takes away your civil liberties as much as the military does without your commiting a crime. So therefore, you volunteer to sacrifice some of your own personal freedom in order to become a member of the military. You are bound by different laws, different rules, different lifestyles, and different responsibilities compaired to your civilian counterparts. When you volunteer, you lose your ability to choose your own life's direction, in fact you volunteer to be made into and sent wherever the government so sees fit, possibly to your death. There are very few jobs that put you in jail for failing to do your job in a prescribed way. And, btw, there are also no jobs which can command you to your death and make you a criminal if you do not do as told. So, yes, you do volunteer, but beyond that initial raising of your hand and saying that oath, there is almost no volunteering done, because you no longer have a choice.

I don't remember saying that. If you're refering to the Descriminating against Descriminators comment, my point was that we shouldn't judge anybody by any unfair prejudices unless we know them. But I knew somebody was going to bring up that point, so I stuck it in there. Basically, its not alright to discriminate anybody. But the problem is, that saying is a paradox, since you're descriminating against those who descriminate in that statement. We both know exactly what I meant.

Woohoo, welcome to the conversation.
I've already admitted all this. It doesn't change the fact that this person has -what is defined by this society- a descriminatory opinion. If you want to go out on a limb, and toss out the rules of our society, then fine. But its going to make conversation a load more interesting.

first off, ive had people in the military "command" me respect for them. just because they "risk" their lives so we can have our freedom. i have nothing against the military, i do respect the men and women of the military, but to say that noone in the military has ever abused their station to advantage is just as bad and ignorant as to accuse all of them of it. and just to point out that Khuzarrz wasnt saying that all military did this, just that some have and do. and i completely agree. sorry if this bothers anyone, but its me opinion.

woohoo, ive been here the whole time, lol, thanks for the welcome though. yes you did admit to it, thats me point, youre alright with descriminating against someone else because they dont share your viewpoint, but you dont want them to descriminate like youre doing. yes, his/her opinion is descriminatory, i dont agree with his/her views. but that doesnt mean that i have to tell them to kill him/herself because i dont share it. i can and will let him/her have his/her own opinion, just like im letting you have yours, just like i hope youre going to let me have mine.

I'm letting you have you opinion, and his opinion. That doesn't mean I can't "flame' him. I understand you're trying to protect peoples right to have an opinion, and I admire you for that. However, you're confusing me saying "Your opinion is wrong" with "Your opinion isn't valid". As for the Killing himself comment, it was one way to get across my point that his opinion was wrong.
Anyway, I'm guessing mainly you took offence at the suicide part, which I can understand, as it was a bit harsh/extremist. I can't say I feel the urge to take it back, however.
Anyway, I need to be off. Cheers to everyone respecting everyone's opinion.

First off... There are A holes in every walk of life the military is no exception.
In the United States the military service is 100% volunteer. There is no draft, con conscription. Yes, it can be a career for some (more so in the UK from what I have heard) but for the majority it is a 4 year contract with reserve time after usually 4 more years.
No one should demand respect, it should be something given by the people they serve. If they demand it, they do not deserve it.
I shoot for the curve... anything above that is gravy.
What greater tribute to free will than the power to question the highest of authority? What greater display of loyalty than blind faith? What greater gift than free will? What greater love than loyalty?

thank you for seeing me point. i appreciate it (im not being sarcasitic). and i understand where youre coming from as well. and yes, me main offense was the suicide part.

IMHO, Narrow Minded means people who are sheltered and don't know much about there world and aren't open to new cultures and ideas. In the military you are exposed to the goods and bads of the world, more than the common man and you're also around MANY MANY different cultures inside the military and in the countries you get stationed. 3)Repuclican. -I'm Democrat. Every military person I know is Democrat. 4)War loveing. -I hate war, so do most soldiers that's why we joined.

Actually, I tend to see that the people who say that they are "going to join the military" are more of that. They never do of course, they just say that they are going to. They are also the ones that have christmas decorations saying "Pray for world peace!" and then have "support our troops!" right next to it.
Those people are the ignorant rednecks that "support our troops" but never actually had the balls to join the military themselves.
I respect those in the military, until they demand my respect, that is how I lose my respect for anyone, once they demand it.
I support our troops, and will continue to support our troops on their plane ride home.

I have respect for those who risk their lives for what they believe in regardless of agreeing or not agreeing with the cause. I am highly against the Iraq war, but if you believe whatever you've been told and risk your life for it, then you get my respect for that.

I like how he asked why people are getting mad at him "simply for expressing his opinion"
If I were to tell that you are a rapist, a shovanist, and an all around elitist douche bag...would you be offended? You shouldn't be...that's just my completely unfounded and ignorant opinion, you have to accept it no matter what.
Your argument is like a two legged dog with an eating disorder...weak and unbalanced.

1)Chovenistic. Yes, I am that 2)Narrow minded. Sometimes 3)Repuclican. Definitely 4)War loveing. Dont like war, but sometimes its necessary
All women like a strong man to lead them. When they see his masculinity and steadfast will, they look up to him and obey the him without question within reaason. Women who try to control the men, fail in their relationships. They seek the submissive male to make them feel powerful.
Now I am not talking obedience in all aspects here, dont get me wrong. All men are somewhat Chauvinistic in one form or another. Thats the way we are. The liberal view of total equality will be the downfall of any nation.
From the beginning of time, men have always protected and loved their most precious possession, the woman.

I've already admitted all this. It doesn't change the fact that this person has -what is defined by this society- a descriminatory opinion. If you want to go out on a limb, and toss out the rules of our society, then fine. But its going to make conversation a load more interesting.

woohoo, ive been here the whole time, lol, thanks for the welcome though. yes you did admit to it, thats me point, youre alright with descriminating against someone else because they dont share your viewpoint, but you dont want them to descriminate like youre doing. yes, his/her opinion is descriminatory, i dont agree with his/her views. but that doesnt mean that i have to tell them to kill him/herself because i dont share it. i can and will let him/her have his/her own opinion, just like im letting you have yours, just like i hope youre going to let me have mine.

I'm letting you have you opinion, and his opinion. That doesn't mean I can't "flame' him. I understand you're trying to protect peoples right to have an opinion, and I admire you for that. However, you're confusing me saying "Your opinion is wrong" with "Your opinion isn't valid". As for the Killing himself comment, it was one way to get across my point that his opinion was wrong.
Anyway, I'm guessing mainly you took offence at the suicide part, which I can understand, as it was a bit harsh/extremist. I can't say I feel the urge to take it back, however.
Anyway, I need to be off. Cheers to everyone respecting everyone's opinion.

First off... There are A holes in every walk of life the military is no exception.
In the United States the military service is 100% volunteer. There is no draft, con conscription. Yes, it can be a career for some (more so in the UK from what I have heard) but for the majority it is a 4 year contract with reserve time after usually 4 more years.
No one should demand respect, it should be something given by the people they serve. If they demand it, they do not deserve it.
I shoot for the curve... anything above that is gravy.
What greater tribute to free will than the power to question the highest of authority? What greater display of loyalty than blind faith? What greater gift than free will? What greater love than loyalty?

Those people are the ignorant rednecks that "support our troops" but never actually had the balls to join the military themselves.
I respect those in the military, until they demand my respect, that is how I lose my respect for anyone, once they demand it.
I support our troops, and will continue to support our troops on their plane ride home.

I have respect for those who risk their lives for what they believe in regardless of agreeing or not agreeing with the cause. I am highly against the Iraq war, but if you believe whatever you've been told and risk your life for it, then you get my respect for that.

You can see my sci-fi/WW2 book recommendations.
I like how he asked why people are getting mad at him "simply for expressing his opinion"
If I were to tell that you are a rapist, a shovanist, and an all around elitist douche bag...would you be offended? You shouldn't be...that's just my completely unfounded and ignorant opinion, you have to accept it no matter what.
Your argument is like a two legged dog with an eating disorder...weak and unbalanced.

I am ex military. Spent 6 years in the Navy.
1)Chovenistic. Yes, I am that
2)Narrow minded. Sometimes
3)Repuclican. Definitely
4)War loveing. Dont like war, but sometimes its necessary
All women like a strong man to lead them. When they see his masculinity and steadfast will, they look up to him and obey the him without question within reaason. Women who try to control the men, fail in their relationships. They seek the submissive male to make them feel powerful.
Now I am not talking obedience in all aspects here, dont get me wrong. All men are somewhat Chauvinistic in one form or another. Thats the way we are. The liberal view of total equality will be the downfall of any nation.
From the beginning of time, men have always protected and loved their most precious possession, the woman.
