I read an article in National Geographic the other day that was talking about how many U.S. Troops are maimed by I.E.D.s, and it bothers the shit out of me. Recently a few of my friends enlisted, and were deployed; and I would absoultely fucking hate to see them come back from their tour, paralyzed, permantely disfigured, or worse dead, all over something that nobody could really agree on.

I don't have a problem with guns at all. I just can't believe how little emphasis is placed on the overall value of human life.

As for my "Fuck the U.S. Militairy" statement, I'd like to retract it. That was an ignorant, and extreme thing to say.
I don't have a problem with our country's militairy, and I respect them for the job they do, and the risks they take to protect all of us. But I have nothing but distaste for the way both sides can go about senselessly killing, and injuring one another without remorse.
haha i'm a fucking moron who did'nt read the whole thread, by the way eatus featus i like your car, oh and if we pull out in iraq the whole place will be flooded with insurgents, we need to stay the course and work as hard as possible building up the iraqi gov
