Poor choice of words you ungrateful piece of shit. Why dont you show some respect.
That Marine knew the risks he took when he enlisted. And I guarantee you if he could go back in time he wouldn't change a thing. Even it it meant living.

Quote from flytiger:
Of course, your Doctorate is in Political Science, so the fact that you can't see any good in this should be the final word, say, as the isolationists fought to keep us out of WWII so that we didn't build, and sacrificed some 80,000 troops in the Far East getting ready. but these points are moot.
The thread was to honor Marines who are not public policy makers, but Warriors who do what they are told with honor, courage, and a loyalty to each other. And you went and fucked that up. But that's you're right, to make a fool of yourself. That's why we need Marines. They defend the rights of morons who otherwise would be beheaded for insolence and stupidity.
The bottom line for the moonbats - we are to blame for terrorists resenting us. If we would just leave them alone, they'd leave us alone, rational human beings that they are.....Global caliphate with Sharia law governing all humans straight out of the 7th Century? No way, that's a neocon chickenhawk warmongering fantasy created to inspire fear in the electorate....leave Iraq, leave Al Qaeda alone, maybe they'll all forgive us for our evil deeds...Quote from Bitstream:
if somethin now we gotta worry even more since we have become extremely vulnerable to terrorists that resent us for what we did.
Quote from Bitstream:
ingreatful my arse, i feel pity for the guy, his death was a waste, for his family and friends, a life thrown away for the ambitions of a fanatic. he enlisted in the marines to fight and defend his country not to wage a useless war in the middle of nowhere initiated just to satisfy a few's privileged interests.

Quote from aus_SPIder:
no. many of the young soldiers 18-25 enlist in the marines so that they can get a college education because they are too damn poor to afford it.
