Of course they are. They're still worthy of respect because they do sacrifice for the common good. Being in the military isn't exactly a lucrative career. I personally gave up hundreds of thousands of dollars by serving.Macbeth wrote:

Yeah community college is the key to vast wealth.
They aren't worthy of respect. Killing goat farmers with drones isn't a sacrifice for the common good.
Why shouldn't the government incentivize military membership? Would you rather have the draft again?Macbeth wrote:
Pell grants are for low income people. FREE MONEY. You got double handouts from the military and civilian governments. That isn't earning anything. If people in the military want to be treated like heroes they shouldn't be asking for a laundry list of benefits and incentives.
he wants the draft back coz apparently since he's in college he wouldnt be drafted.unnamednewbie13 wrote:

How exactly? Are you going to come up with some convoluted argument that you could have taken a loan for college and graduated sooner thus entering the workforce sooner but didn't?Jay wrote:

Banning military parades and throwing dogshit at veterans isn't going to stop redneck chickenhawks from thinking we should just nuke every country we go to war with.
Right on officer. You don't get treated special just because your dog makes you not sad.An Army veteran was kicked off the North Wildwood boardwalk and issued a summons Thursday because he was walking with his service dog, according to local police and a Florida news report.
Jared Goering, a Tampa resident and 19-year U.S. Army veteran, was taking his first vacation in years with his wife Sally in North Wildwood when a police officer stopped him because he was walking with his dog Navigator, he told ABC's Tampa affiliate.
The officer told Goering there were no dogs allowed on the boardwalk except guide dogs and issued him a summons. Goering showed the officer the dog's special service collar, but the officer was unapologetic, according to the report.
"He went on to say that, 'What are they doing? Giving every vet a dog now?' " Sally Goering told ABC.
Goering brought the matter to a supervisor with the department, who retrieved the summons and filed for a dismissal, according to a press release from North Wildwood Police.
"An internal affairs investigation was initiated and the incident will be thoroughly investigated by the Internal Affairs supervisor," North Wildwood police said today.
Goering entered retirement in 2009 after he suffered two IED explosions in Afghanistan within a 36-hour period, ABC reported. He that after suffering through the debilitating aftermath, his service dog has allowed him to lead a normal life and feel comfortable in crowds.
You should have an IED detonate near you and surviv. Let's see how you feel then, you fucking disrespectful asshole.Macbeth wrote:

You have the nerve tell me to hush because I am not in the military yet? You shut the fuck up about the US military you fucking disrespectful hypocrite. Maybe there should be a draft back to discipline worthless creepy fucks like you.Macbeth wrote:
You weren't even in the military so hush.
