gently caress the troops and you can't cheat on a deployed spouse because they nullified your marriage by staying married to their uniform

troops should be banned from re-entering america after they're deployed

when we send out troops, we're not sending our best, why should we let them back in to bring crime and drugs and violence to our communities

they just want to take advantage of our free healthcare and education

We had a young Army guy over for Thanksgiving, he was complaining that the culture was like high school and said when he got out he was either going to study physical therapy or become a stripper.
I'm not sure if anybody thanked him for his service.

quote:

The details that emerged paint a damning picture of at least one U.S. ground operation in the African nation. This includes U.S. Special Operators firing upon unarmed civilians, using human intelligence from sources widely considered untrustworthy to Somalis in the region as well as government officials, and instructing their Somali counterparts to collect weapons that were being stored inside a home—not displaced on the field in the course of the firefight—and placing them beside the bodies of those killed prior to photographing them. In the aftermath of the incident, according to our sources, American diplomats also pressured the Somali government to bury the unfavorable findings of a Somali Federal Government-led investigation.

War is business and the troops are just getting sent to die for some rich man's money so whatever nothing matters.

We're probably months away from Trump announcing a new war because it will be great for jobs and army moms cheering it because they're excited about the likes their Facebook post about "my hero troopson died in a cave" is gonna get.

the military exists to funnel billions of taxpayer dollars to raytheon and halliburton at the expense of foreign civilian death while americans at home get hosed in the rear end by every possible corporation that owns the government

a single troop might be a good guy doing what's best for them and their family, but the fuckin institution is unconscionable and should be dismantled

Ya but this is how we have all these computers now so troops literally died so I could post semper fi to the polls

I’ve always found it weird that there’s a lot of young Jewish American men who get a massive rager at the thought of going over Israel to join the IDF, like our government isn’t hard enough on poor middle easterns or something.
