arguing on the internet is like competing in the special olympics. even if you win, you're still retarded. but i might as well tell you my take on this- it's disgusting to call these people "professional murderers" as they risk everything to fight for a cause and serve the nation in a horrible area of the world. but i have to point out that the war in Iraq is totally corrupt and unnecessary, we could have done without the war in Afghanistan, innocent civilians will indeed always get killed by troops from both sides, and it's unrealistic to say that the army is "defending our freedom" -- an extremist terrorist group won't exactly invade the world's most powerful fucking nation, except of course for the one time freak event of 9/11.

The London Bombings? and several other attacks elsewhere in the world..this was not a "one time freak event"

yea, you're right. we should totally invade a fucking nation because a few guys strap a bomb to his chest. fuck off, retard. and i'm talking about OUR nation, not fucking britain. this is a national security issue, not a MILITARY issue.

Gotta love how you stat that internet arguments are for 'retards', then proceed to argue against the guy above... hey, at least you know where you stand.

Or...not even on 9/11?

Thank you.

this pic describes what i think those kinda of people should do

yeah were America and those people who tried to bring us down, they injured us severely, but like a bone after a fracture we healed and grew stronger.

I'd like to see you call a Marine a faggot in real life.

wth is wrong with you they are fighting for you

these men are the only guys keeping paratropers off your damn lawn, do you think the guys invading your house will give a fuck if you tell them you're against war?

rule one in the military you asshole is not to fire unless fired apon so they are defending not only themselves but the people who get caught up in wars like this go hang yourself you asshole you dont deserve the rights that they protect

Dude they are trained to kill to keep the other fuckin countries from bombing us or raiding our homes and killing our famliys. Their risking their lives to keep people with big ass guns from standing on your front lawn

Wow dude, so many thumbs down....

you seriously dont deserve to live you motherfucking piece of shit. these people have more respect, honor and have worked harder than you ever will you waste of fucking space

youd sing a different to if there were real professional murders knocking at your door

We're not murderers. I want you to read this http://funnyjunk.com/funny_pictures/68945/Give+the+Respect/ . If anything, you should be thanking us Marines for what we do. I don't want to see other soldiers coming back and being treated like they were when they came home from Vietnam.

They do. The piece of shit Bush government doesn't deserve it. The soldiers perform orders. Some of them are fucked up and do crazy shit that trash our PR over there, but you are just an inconsiderate bastard that has no feelings/respect for the people who defend your right to make such an absurd comment.

you realize that they risk their lives so you can be free to waste your own?

Nigger.

Okay bitch, listen up. These guys spend years in the hot fucking desert getting sand in their eyes, barely any contact with family, fighting a war against a terrorist group just so you can see tomorrow and not have to worry about getting shot right in front of your house. Plus bitch, its not murder if they are shooting back.

No I am not.

I see it like this: We live in a great place where anyone can say whatever the hell they want about the military. But remember its that military that gave you the right to do that. So, you are not doing anything "wrong" by saying what you want, but, you are being extremely disrespectful. It's like your parents giving you the best present ever and then you throw it back in their faces.

LOL you wouldnt have freedom if it weren't for the soldiers

Im not getting into a debate with you over the internet, no one wins

I'm not denying you your freedom of speech, simply excersizing mine.

I would appreciate you wouldn't attempt to be so insulting. I am just saying my own opinions and i wish not to be judged, but humans will break others like toys.

I am truly tempted to delete all your comments and block you, but it's WAY too fun to see you make an idiot out of yourself

Why would you delete all of my comments?
what about ReapFreak who said "What's with crap like this? These people are professional murderers who don't deserve the respect."
Also you do not see me as anything, you may believe it's idiotic but i am just curious

I DO see you as something. I see you as a moron who believes that soldiers either suffer from bloodlust or will commit suicide out of guilt.

I never said that. I Only said blood-lust whenever someone will kill anyone pertaining to that subject.

You sure as hell did, fucktard. Learn to be consistant, not a spineless flip-flopper like you liberal idols

Oh god, please don't start a liberal vs. conservative thing here...

Well because, Al Qaeda is like a disease, you have to stop terrorists before they become too strong. Same thing with Pearl Harbor, they destroy our biggest naval base in the Pacific, and if we didnt fight back, we would have had to fight WWII in America. Basically, we are sending our brave soldiers over so we dont have to worry about terrorists. Plus because we are over there, Baghdad is the safest airport in the world right now, and people can finally send their kids outside.

Alright now i know that many people dont have the stomach for civilian casualties but in reality its how we won the war, now im not saying that its appropriate for this war, but it was appropriate for world war 2, it was a full out war, they were fanatics who would jump off cliffs rather than be captured by the americans, so if we wanted to win the war we had to bring them down to their knees by nuking them, it was either them or us and i was glad it was them

its called ending a fucking war that THEY started dumbass. Dont blame america blame the dirty jap government that bombed us in the first place.

Yes the atomic bomb was severe. But the projected Death Toll of a full land invasion of Japan tops 1 million. In no way am I justifying the bombing, but those two cities are now booming with industry, and America basically rebuilt Japan afterwards

People say that, but they really have no idea how deeply invested we are with every country in the world. Do you know what the first thing that would have happened had we "minded our own business?" First, Israel would fall and be taken over by a hostile country, since Israel is probably our best ally that we constantly need to protect, since it is a country literally filled with oil and religious sacred grounds. The danger is intensified by the fact that they are SURROUNDED by enemy territories. The warfare that would come from us leaving would be far worse for the entire planet then what is happening now. It's not like I have enough room to completely explain the chain of events, but short version: NOT GOOD.

Maybe you should just shut the fuck up, eh?

Because you're speaking to one of the men you're disrespecting. Everything happens for a reason, justified or not.

Apparently you don't know the meaning of Curiosity. You tell me my country is wrong for defending itself, you tell me we are wrong for a retaliation of 9/11. You tell me that my ex-commander in chief is wrong for sending over soldiers. Has anymore god damn planes crashed into buildings that big since?

Really, you don't know the President of the United States. War is all around us, you can not stop people from being the people they are. I became a Marine to make a difference. I protect my family and friends. This whole thread makes me sick.

I reiterate, this thread makes me sick. You make me sick. Without us, where would you be? Would you want to be in a place like Uganda, where the military kills their own? Or would you want people to fight for the freedom of a country. I know people who have died, but they died protecting what they love. Obviously, you would not want to give your life for the sake of your own country. Killing happens, death happens. Shit happens.

Yes, everything happens for a reason. If you ever, with the smallest chance, find yourself in the military, (best quote ever) "Once you accept the fact, that you are already dead, you will function like a soldier. No mercy, no compassion." Maybe then you will understand the justification of killing. Picking of these towel heads one by one means there is less of a chance that we will be attacked. What's one life for hundreds?

And alas, the public agrees with me. We gave you the right to drink the Chocolate milk, by killing others. You're just drinking away the lives of those wishing to kill you. I only hope that you see differently you adolescent, little queer. You make me sick.

you are complaining about his comment being offensive? get over it. he's excercising that freedom of speech you are so ignorantly enjoying

Ohhh touch'e, you stopped me from replying to that next one. I'll just leave off with one last thing; Offensive or not I rest by it. And next time I'm about to hit one of those terrorists in between the eyes, I'll be sure to carve your user name right into the side of my 5.56 bullet. I don't like you, but everyone is entitled to their opinion. I'm just going to remember yours cleaning up the gore and finding the shell casing. Justified.

Quit being a little bitch. I have to hand it to PTTN. He fucking owned you. Two of my cousins are marines. I lived with one of them. He doesn't fuck around either. If he doesn't like something he does something about it. From what I've seen thats something being a marine is about. Doing it right and getting shit done. Killing to be free is justifiable. You are as stated by PTTN an "adolescent little queer". Now GTFO.

Your comment #361=WIN

Our society is a brilliant one, we have free thinking minds bringing you new technologies and new renovations day after day, the troops we send out to keep peace are the same men and women that help keep these brilliant minds safe at work, if you make an injustifable argument about black people, you are a racist, but really, show some goddamn respect, these people risk every second of time they spend outside with about twenty pounds of equipment stuck on them, and they do it so you can sit in front of your computer, right now, to try to think of a witty response, which will inevitably come

Perfection is a hard objective, maybe you should spend your time working towards that, instead of sitting in front of your computer typing

Therefore perfection cannot be achieved, instead of asking for the perfect government and society, perhaps you should try to make your own society better.

non hostility is an impossible objective. As long as any difference separates two thoughts a compromise is impossible unless one of the groups is yielding.
Humanity is not perfect and never shall be. All thought does not point towards one goal. One man may dream of peace but another may dream of power and you cannot control what somebody may think. You may however change what he thinks. And on a greater thought, what is perfection and how would you justify it?

That is part of perfection, and I quote "As long as there is emotion, there shall always be hatred, as long as there is hatred, there is war, as long as there is war, there is no peace"
If you wanted no hostility, ask all the people in the world to drop religion, drop science, drop all their opinions and become similar minded sheep and follow someone

I'm sorry I didn't clarify what i mean't. I mean hostility with no good reason.
And I am glad that I can talk to someone without them using insulting words.

We attacked Afghanistan for a reason, the thousands of lives America lost on that day angered too many, their emotions tore through their simple clothing of flesh, and they gnashed their teeth and roared at the government to strike back, the wars were caused by one feud or another, one religion disagreement or another, look at the Crusades, they were caused by ignorant knights who thought the Jews were uncivilized, hell, look at WWII, Hitler started killing people because he hated just one race, and his dreams of "perfection"

Perfection can be defined in many thoughts

Perfection is not realistic. Ask 100 people what they think the meaning of life is and I promise you will get a different answer from every person no matter how much they sound alike they picture it differently than any other. The human mind is unique to every person and nothing could truly unify a justifiable belief. This goes for religion, scientific and equivalent belief.

I apologize for my english if i made any grammatical errors

I do not believe you did

My idea of "perfection" cannot be defined without distorting the time-space continuum

And then that will surely be a fun ride, won't it?

Maybe to protect your fucking ass so shut the hell up and have some respect
