when was the last time you thanked an American soldier for protecting your freedom?
US troops didn't fight for US freedoms. The black panthers did.
>>688705387
Was on break at the McDonald's I work at, saw an old man who was wearing a WW2 hat with his pins and shit and went to sit with him since he was alone, he was really funny and very interesting to talk to. Gave the old man a nice McGriddle
Never because i live in the UK

>>688706239

American soldiers dont protect our freedoms nor are they heros so why would i thank them? You do realize the last time we were even invaded was in 1941 and the last time someome even challanged our freedoms was the revolutionary war. Someone has to actually challenge your freedoms for them to be protected. American soldiers invade other countries and kill innocent people and people trying to protect their country. So stfu. American soldiers past ww2 and the korean war can suck my fucking cock. Fuck their service
>>688706239
well not where i live
>>688705387
>protecting your freedom?
What? The military works for the corporations and the banks. My FREEDOM? Such as WHAT? The FREEDOM to vote, which doesn't seem to matter based on 40 years of voting. Can I smoke dope legally? No? Can I own a 30-round standard AR-15 magazine? No? Can I fuck a 15 year old? No?
Which "freedoms" are you talking about, exactly? The "freedom" to choose between Coke and Pepsi?
Thanked a vietnam vet 2 weeks ago at a flea market, sold him some army jeep replicas

>>688706607
at least you americans dont live under a dictator
>>688705387
they're just drones who signed their soul over to the government. they don't feel, thus thanking them would be a waste of time
>>688706607
Why do you wanna fuck a 15 year old.
>>688706795
That moment when you realize just because you live under a dictator doesnt mean its bad. Russia is in the best conditions its ever been in. Its people love putin. Not all dictators are bad. I assume youre american

As an exec chef in a decent restaurant i like to talk to tables after dinner service. Had a table of 3 old ww2 vets last week. They loved the food and were in high spirits, funny guys. Thanked them for their services and covered their bill. Came in yesterday, asked to see me. We sat and chatted a bit and they gave me a bayonet and an old nazi flag saying they'll be in once a week or once every 2 weeks.
>>688705387

Its such a futile occupation. Every solider is worthless
>>688707036
>football bat.
My sides
>>688705387
I never have, because I have never felt that they were actually protecting freedom. Maybe geopolitical/financial interests to the government, but never for my freedom to smoke weed or fighting the guy that stole my bike.

millitary are all killers and rapist, and brainless monkeys, is there something else we need to know?
only losers and ppl who dont know what to do with theirlives enlist in the army.
following family tradition? want your kids to be as miserable as you? enlist to the army, becuase the best parents are the one who kill for their family.
instead just kill family members from across the sea and you keeo glorify assassins and killers
>>688705387
They just joined cause they are stupid enough to think the are fighting for things like freedom
They fight for the rich.
People in the army are stupid
This is from a person in an army family(dad is a full bird)

>>688705579
kekeke. nice one
GUYS it doesnt matter how much you think soldiers are or have been useless since WW2, as long as aggresive countries like North Korea have places like the USA targeted, I'm glad we have people willing to protect us if needed.

well those stupid soldiers are what makes your abundance possible. your soldiers genocided the indians, bullied countless little nations (not because they wanted to but because you elected people who ordered them to), intimidated and assassinated people all over this big world. without dumb people ready to kill you would be in quite a different position. i'm not asking any value judgment here, just for you to accept this fact.
>>688713539
All these keyboard warriors haha, I'd like to see someone that has the testicular fortitude to say some arrogant shit like this to an actual service members face
>>688708260
Most soldiers join for the benifits.
Free schooling, good cheep health care, early retirement to name a few.
The government spends thousands on each individual soldier just to pass basic. So how are they worthless exactly?
>>688715125
Some of my friends are/have been in the military...and I have. They agree with me, they just joined for the free college or because they knew jackshit about what to do with life.
When was the last time an american soldier thanked me for protecting their freedom? Never. American soldiers and I have an understanding. Neither of us protect each others freedoms at all so neither of us thank each other for it.
Last time I fucked my girlfriend she's in the air force.
Fuck all of them.
>>688715343
Well I am currently in the Military, everyone's got their own reasons for enlisting brotherman, honestly it typically varies from branch to branch, usually you'll find the guys that just want free school and benefits in the Air Force but that's not always the case. And I'm positive that most Marines definitely didn't join for the benefits haha

>>688706505
3rd world "countries" need not apply
>>688705387
the only people who seriously think that they joined the military to protect freedoms have either been brainwashed into thinking that during basic, or are just pretentious asshats. faggots who never see combat and then prattle on about how they're out there saving lives and shit. those who know combat don't want praise and those who want praise don't deserve shit.
>>688716547
Oh anon, sorry that you're mentally handicapped, but 3rd world countries are exactly where the US has the most bases.

i don't openly tell people i'm a veteran
but if someone does thank me, i will thank them right back just for showing support to the military.

I hope conscription (that's all the fucking "draft" is, just dressed up) is re instituted. It's easy ignore when the government wages bullshit wars with a volunteer army. It's when people and their sons and fathers and brothers are forced to take part in it themselves that they take a step back and ask what the fuck is going on.

I always enjoy seeing these posts. I lived my life as a civilian for 5 years before joining. I wasn't going anywhere with my life and I needed something that paid better and provided better benefits than part time at Wal Mart.
I get Tuition Assistance, free housing, a food allowance, and paid to go to other states and countries. I've met some pretty fucking retarded people in the Army, but it just depends on what their plan is. Most of the ones that came straight from high school aren't very bright, but the older ones know what they want from the military and take advantage of every dollar they can squeeze out. Hell, I've gotten enough job training and supervisor training to get a pretty comfortable job if I were to decide to get out and even utilize my time towards a government job getting me that much closer to that 20 year mark.
tl;dr Some of us are stupid, but others are working every dollar out of it.

What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little bitch? I’ll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Navy Seals, and I’ve been involved in numerous secret raids on Al-Quaeda, and I have over 300 confirmed kills. I am trained in gorilla warfare and I’m the top sniper in the entire US armed forces. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of spies across the USA and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You’re fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the United States Marine Corps and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it. You’re fucking dead, kiddo.

Lol'ing at all the hate. Kids don't even realize they just look like painfully insecure pussies to everyone. No matter what you're saying, everyone knows you were just too cowardly to join-- you're just making poor justifications (like you got to be dumb to be a soldier-- ever consider that maybe smart dudes want to fight too?). Dudes need to grow-up and realize that they're not the toughest boy on the block, and that's ok as long as they recognize it. No one is thinking you're tough or smart when you shit on soldiers.
>>688722997

Military is hard? Sarcasm?
Military is easy.
1. Do 6th grade level (at best) job
2. Come to work on time, you live on base if you're single so home is work
3. Run 2-3 miles at 8min pace for PT test aka don't get fat and get paid to be in shape
4. Do what you're told
5. Have everything given to you for free or subsidized
6. Free health care
7. A plethora of benefits and services
8. The civilian world will always jerk you off for wearing the uniform. (Court side seats to sporting events, concerts, discounts, boarding planes ahead of everyone)
Military is harder than civilian.. Bitch have a seat!
Be me.. 32 attorney ex vet.
Working 60-70 hours per week as an associate.. Jr counsel 70-90 per week.
Paying rent/mortgage
Utilities
Nothing is tax free like PX
Paying for professional insurance
Gym membership
Buying work clothes
Can get fired from job
Economy sucks
No special benefits
I fly coach while army fags get upgrades
If I have a shitty day, no stress card
I have to compete with credible/qualified people.
Military is harder than civilian life.. Bitch, take a seat

Your ignorance of modern combat is unsurprisingly large. Firefights are a common occurrence on deployment. Not that you would care to educate yourself-- I'm sure your entire perception of the war has been conceived in such a way you could justify not serving. Just admit it, you were afraid of what could happen to you if you joined.

>>688727364
Again, I have no idea where you are getting these ideas about modern combat in Iraq and Afghanistan, especially considering you weren't there, but they are just dead wrong. Even when our forces still had the advantage, the combat was still extremely dangerous. That's not even considering the fact that most casualties were from IEDs, which could hit anyone anywhere. I think driving down an Iraqi road in an up-armored vehicle at the height of the war was way more dangerous than driving your Prius to Starbucks.
>>688727394

I'm a psychology major at ucla and you really have it wrong. Individuals that choose violence as a first response not only tend to have a lower iq but also commonly have deep rooted behavior issues which may or may have not influenced their choice to pursue a position of power in the first place.just my 2 cents.
>>688729417
See, it's not about being insecure in your abilities-- it's much more instinctual than that or else it wouldn't sway you so. It's about your physical and psychological insecurities over your lack of masculine feelings.
>>688730214
Implying you should judge toughness when you are probably a fucking pussy boi.
>>688729898
>You realize we weren't comparing soldiers of today with the soldiers of WWII, right?
We are actually. You say the modern American soldier is some sort of hardass that's actually seen something. I'm pointing out that this is false. And this is only death tolls, this isn't even mentioning general conditions they lived in.
>We're comparing them to you.
My point remains. I'm more likely to be killed in a car accident than an american soldier is to be killed in combat.

That's sort of confirms then what I'm saying-- you can be an intelligent individual who is violent because of behavior issues. Even still, an individual's propensity for violence can vary greatly. Some may pursue it, some may be just unafraid of it, and others avoid it-- regardless of intelligence individuals exist for each.
>>688730214

Life isn't about being tough man. I know they told you that but it just isn't so. Can you tell me what the people did you where being tough against?

You misunderstand-- I'm just saying they are tougher than you. This has nothing to do with combat death, or even the nature of modern warfare. Soldiers are conditioned to be physically tougher and mentally more resilient than the average civilian. Especially some twenty-something college kid. You know this damn well but deny it because it makes you feel like a weak pussy. It's fucking pathetic how hard you're trying.

I was actually addressing how it isn't healthy to encourage these tendencies as they are very uncontrollable. To be frank, I can see why they pump you guys full of bravodo. I just feel it's selfish of the government to risk solders mental health for financial/geological/military gain. The way you are responding to the trolls and posters suggest a need to justify your means. If I was to offer any advice it would be for you to absorb others opinion from a position less defensive and more enbracing.

What am I afraid of.? Certainly not a head strong goon that repeats what he was told.
I grew up in Boston until I was 14, then moved to Canada and lived on both east and west sides for 8 years. Just recently moved down to Florida about 6 months ago and all I can say is this
The general American population is uneducated and basically has to be told how to live, much like people in the military. I'm not saying they're bad people, I mean for the most part the people here are really cool and fun to be around, yet they generally don't know anything outside the confines of what's on Netflix or on the news (which isn't so much news as it is propaganda to feed fear into the hearts of American citizens)
I'll give you some examples
>Go to doctor and pharmacists in Canada because I was born with type 1 diabetes
>Doctor is able to answer questions I have and pharmacist knows which insulins to prescribe me right off the top of their heads without looking elsewhere for said info
>Go to doctor here, he doesn't even look me in the eyes when talking, tells me to up my dosage when I tell him about a problem
>Ahhh I don't think I should be doing that, I've had this for 23 years I know what I'm talking about, you didn't even answer my original question
>Pharmacist looks on computer to find which insulin I'm talking about. "Oh this is a long acting insulin"
>Lol no bitch it isn't, I've been taking it for a while now. She insists until I have her look it up again
>"Oh I'm so sorry anon you're right"..... what the fuck is even going on here?
You know what the best part about it is? I have to pay an exponential amount for my medication and healthcare here, you'd at least think it would be better if i was paying for it. This country is abused and sick and its sad to see that people don't truely realize it. They tend to think that voting for one person as president is going to fix decades of systematic abuse and don't realize that they have so much more potential to do great things and change the tide. When it's all said and done survivors and mature men realize that in 1/2

This has everything to do with it. You and all your other cock-docking soldier buddies are jack shit compared to even the men you shoot at, let alone the soldiers before you.

You work out. Stop acting like they make you into fucking superman, your average civilian chad and prison nigger is just as physically tough.

The bigger scheme of life, fighting accomplishes nothing. Great minds come together to create great things, the latter would send you back to the stone age. Human kind has been killing each other since the dawn of man, perhaps it's time we try something new and take the next step towards our evolutionary potential. It starts with our children and those adopted children, we reverse the overpopulation by having one child per couple instead of 2 or more. Passing down ideas and freedom of thought to our next of kin is how we change the world, it certainly won't happen overnight but imagine what kind of world could exist. Endless possibilities
>>688731799
Your advice, well sound and generally applicable, is not warranted here because these discussions aren't about constructive criticism and personal growth. I think you hold your own biases against soldiers, and are attempting to portray yourself as a neutral observer by means of your "professional" input.
