As far as I know, Stu has served honorably. I can't believe someone here would say something this stupid, regardless of what side of the political fence you're on.
Honroably!? with the comments he made? This isnt about what side of politics fence we are on. This is who we are. I also used to think that Stu was a hero , but he just brought himself down by those comments he made. Thats why I was not only pissed but also disspointed and surprised at the same time.
Unless you have evidence that he didn't serve honorably, your comments are disgraceful.
JUST THE FACT THAT HE SAID AMERICAN LIVES ARE WORTH MORE THAN IRAQIS is enough for me.
They are. PERIOD. I joined the Marines to protect AMERICAN LIVES, property and freedoms which are worth more to me than any Iraqi life. Ask a veteran of WW2 or Korea or Vietnam if they think an American life is worth more than the life of their enemies and see what answer you get.
Now if you want to call me dishonorable then do it to my face, I will be in Virgina for the show in May. And at LEAST I had the balls to go and serve my country. Have you?
If its all about having the balls to just go kill people with your attitude, Im glad to say no, and I will never have the balls to sink that low to put down people just cause they were born in a different part of the world.
And when it comes to the Gulf war, you didnt go there to protect AMERICAN lives,,,, you went there to protect Kuwaiti peoples lives from Saddam. Which in this case means you were there, risking your own american life, for people of Kuwait? so do you think that their lives are worth more than american peoples!?
Bottom line is, you cant grade peoples lives based on their origin. there are low lives in every continent/country/state/city/neighbourhood.
No I was protecting American interests, in this case the sovereignty of the Kuwaiti people. But I joined to protect American lives and your rights. It's not about having the balls to kill people you idiot. NO SANE person ever wants to kill another person, it haunts you for the rest of your life. But when it comes down to it, I care more about 1 American life than I care about 100 lives from any other country because THIS IS MY COUNTRY and YOU and EVERYONE ELSE are my people and it is my DUTY.
First of , youre the idiot not me. Just because you had the balls to go over there and kill people over oil which you just admited, doesnt make you a better person than me. Second, as much as you brag about your duty and serving your country, it just makes it seem like you get the most pleasure from just the attention. You honestly think that joining the marines/airforce/army is the only way to SERVE this country?
Out of respect for Carl, I will end this meaningsless discussion with you, cause we'll never see things eye to eye. As long as you think that peoples lives are valued based on geographical locations, you will never make any sense to me, ever.
