need to start posting more stuff on this because yeah. I also need to use this best buy giftcard I have and buy a new video game so I can sit on my ass and do that. And then I have to go to Boston tomorrow for orientation at 1:30. SO FUCK. It better not be snowy and miserable and shit out tomorrow. But, now I’m going to go to the gym and have a good time.

I’m only anonymous because I have better things to do than answer hate.
I don’t care about whether your dad/brother/boyfriend/husband is in the army right now and fucking “suffering”. It’s NOTHING compared to what the civilians in the countries they occupy endure.
Of course, the media portrays soldiers as heroes. Uhhh, no. Just no. Ever heard of the soldier who shot an Afghan child and kept his finger as a souvenir ? He just got 7 years in jail when he got back home. The most revolting thing is, if no one knew what he did, he’d come home as a hero.
Check out the Abu Gharib torture and prisoner abuse, too and take a look at the people you dare call “heroes”.
Don’t pull that “HURR DURR THEY SURRRRVE OUR COUNTRY!!111” or “THEY FIGHT FURR OURR FREEDUM HURRRRR!!11” bullshit on me. The USA does not need “serving” and its freedom doesn’t need fighting. It’s just taking freedom away from Iraq, Iran and Afghanistan.
Once the troops go there, they abuse their power and do whatever the fuck they want. Of course, that’s not all of them, but you can’t deny that they have NO BUSINESS THERE.
The stupidest argument ever must be “they’re protecting us from those terrorists so they can’t bomb us”. NOPE. They’re the only terrorists I see. Bitch please.

The day another country’s military steps onto our soil is the day people like you will understand why we have a military. Just because you hear one story about a fucked up solider doesn’t mean you can sterotype the whole entire military as a group of crazy killers. And how the hell do you know how the civilians truly feel? Yeah, you only get so much from the news, you don’t get every detail about how the native population feels. Blame this fucking government for the bullshit in the middle east, not the people who carry the orders out like they’re supposed to.
