No. Killing people for the sake of killing isn't good.
"the sake of killing" gives you your right to post what you are posting right now.
Our could be owned by another country right now if we didn't "kill for the sake of killing"
Without the military, we wouldn't be what we are today. We would be Britain's bitch. Now, i don't see how those videos make someone not want to join the military, in fact it is quite awesome the technology showed in those videos.
Well then it was necessary. Is the war in Iraq necessary? No. Not at all. We're not defending our own freedoms. We're just using the plight of a people as an excuse for getting oil.
Yes the iraq war is necessary, we are helping people out by giving them the right to freedom.
I don't think that people realize that these clips do go both ways. We kill them, they kill us. What the fuck did we accomplish? More mindless acts of violence aren't going to make the world or our country a better place to live in.
Lmao, that is war man.
Maybe because you or someone else is too scared to defend your country, doesn't mean you tell others not to join, people will do as they wish.
Scared? No. I don't see how putting a bullet in someone's face is defending my country. I don't see the need to take anyone's life, regardless of the crime they committed. If you're going for punishment then jail works just fine. They can't hurt anyone and they serve a fate much worse than death.
Jail doesn't work fine, it wastes money, thus why they invented the death penalty. Read up on things before you comment on them.
Join if you must but i will still think that the military needs to focus more on peaceful strategies that minimize casualties.
They alreay do. You think they go in and say "Let's break our record of how many people died yesterday!!!!"
No.
Essentially, I can understand if someone kills in the heat of passion and anger but to do it in completely sensibility and even derive some form of enjoyment from it just sickens me. And sadly many of those in active duty are doing so.
No.
