this might be one of the lamest threads on this site, and there are some fucking lame ones.
I come from a police family: my dad and his 2 brothers, grandfather, and a couple uncles were/are officers/troopers. And there are plenty of people in the military in my family also. Actually, I'm in Army ROTC too. I used to be the total shitbag who went around saying, "fuck cops, they suck and hurt people" all the time. But once you realize that the police are the first to arrive on the scene for every shooting, car accident, fire and any other 911 emergency call, and are the ones to stabilize most situations before they become news worthy or hazardous to others, you might rethink the "fuck cops" mentality. If you hate police officers, who are you going to call if you get into a car accident, get mugged, or any other situation you need to call them for?
and it's the same for the military. People like you, the OP, who shit upon those who serve in the armed services are complete fucking idiots. It seems like everyone wants to jump down and infantryman's throat for civilian casualties but don't realize the war in Iraq is a war of attrition and any Iraqi could be carrying an AK or be strapped with a bomb. It's an unfortunate part of war, but it's been occurring on all sides since the beginning of time. I've lost 2 friends when I told them I was joining the Army, they said they couldn't be associated with "someone like that." What the fuck.
so stop being a little bitch and sack the fuck up.
