ELIGE MAGISTRUM
Faint said:I think more intelligent people tend to see little value in joining. This is not to say people in the military cannot be intelligent. I'm just saying in general.
That's quite an unfounded generalization. In general? How is it that you know anything of the general masses, their intelligence level, or what is best for them?
Faint said:Yes, the military can help people in this regard...people unable to find better options on their own. But some of us coming from similar situations are able to figure out how to make money without jumping through all the hoops of military service. I will not say there is no honor in what your man did. But I do hold to my original point.
If I didn't know any better I'd say that was him, and thousands of others like him finding their own options. And no, he jumps through no hoops. And of course you can't say there's no honor, in my opinion that would be an oxymoron.
I must say, I'm quite shocked. I do believe this is the first time I've heard of someone showing complete disrespect for our service members. Being someone who enjoys their way of life I would think you'd be a bit more thankful or at the very least polite. My husband is not yet 30 and already has something in his life to be proud of.
