I hate this campaign they have done that I have seen in movie theatres, this is what it says, followed by what some think it really is, then followed by a silly little fun of the slogan. See what you think... What it says: There are those who dedicate themselves to a sense of honor, to a life of courage, and a commitment to something greater than themselves. They have always defended this nation and each other...they still do. The few, the proud, the Marines. What some think it is: There are those who dedicate themselves to a sense of unfairness, to a life of control, and a commitment to something greater than our peace. They have always filled this nation and each other with fear...they still do. The few, the proud,the Marines. The silly fun of: There are those who dedicate themselves to their stench, thier small package, a life of food for others, and a commitment to something greater than their tin can. They have always filled this nation with opinions of them...they still do. The few, the proud, the Sardines.
Explain that to one of 'em, and let us know how it goes. On a serious note, I've met active duty Marines at peace gatherings (though not in uniform, of course).
You know, I actually was thinking about explaining that to some of them, not to all marines of course. Some actually do sign up for good reasons. I think I was just disgusted and referring to the one's who love the art of war like a chess game and using the rest of the people like pawns. I know there are too many out there like that and frankly after the way the U.S. country has acted and no military standing up for the rites (domestic problems too) that this country was founded on....well...what can I say- not enough did much patriotism or anything to prevent disaster that was inflicted by our own government to it's own people. If you are trained so much to not think what is actually right but just to follow like many military are, then there is not much of a chance for peace, anywhere.
man fuck that. it doesnt matter what reason they joined the services but the point is they did and that is something that not in a million years could i be brave enough to do. sure violence is never the answer but at least they still have the courage to do something. we should be giving marines nothing but our help and respect cause god knows that after stop loss's and 3rd and 4th tours theyre gonna come home broken. its the ones in high up power that desrve the wrath of your wit, not the lowly foot soldiers.
You do have a point, a very valid one. But as a soldier, military wherever you are...they all take the same oath to stand up against foreign AND Domestic problems. You can't possibly say that the lower one's haven't caused some problems of their own by the training they receive, what it does to their mind, and a troubled enough individual who starts off at the bottom who just wants to play war games and get to the top. Not every mind can handle it and not everyone who joins is innocent. I admire the one's who can and not get wrapped up into the chess game. I just also find it wrong to go publisizing mililtary like it's a candy bar to be enjoyed. There would be nothing left to fight for.
those commercials make me gag, i cant stand watching them. it shows how brainwashed the american people are. that was just...bullshit. brainwashed sheeple join the marines because they think there fulfilling a "patriotic duty" and/or its going to "help them" later, like how the military pays for college, or some other shit like that. american citizens are susceptible to years of ruling class propoganda, that protrays military service as something everyone should do. what REALLY goes on though, is the destruction of civilizations, and mass murder of millions of people because the US is an imperialist nation, and this is in its nature. what we SHOULD be giving the marines, is all the criticism we can muster, because they do nothing progressive, and only destroy the world for imperial interest.....not "love and support" as you say. Not to mention all the victims (marines who now regret joining) they have drawn in to their murderous biddings.
if i were standing on a cliff.. with you.. and i could grab you by the leg and throw you off just after talking to a camera about how cute you were... oh hell i would. lets all just go rape and murder civilizations to spread our peace and democracy, we all know in order to stay a virgin you must have sex.
Someone has been either abused by the hands of law enforcement or rejected from military service.. Your deluded and dont deserver the freedom you have... Good night. 407th Support Battalion, 82nd Airborne Division..So.. I dont really care what you say about those pussy Marines....
think about what was said here. Does anyone make sense out of this? In one sentence it's supporting military, the next it's not. WTF? hhaha
If you want me to attack your intelligence, I guess I will. Since I fought for your freedom.... No your probable a little juvenile punk with a criminal record probable a mile long. I doubt you have a Ged.. You start all your post with uncapitalized letters... Ill bet your on public assistance and your making you post from the library since your broke uneducated ass cant buy your own computer. Either that or your sitting in mommys house on mommys computer.. Wtf hahhaa you joined in 2007 and .. you have like 300 little piss ant post... And a Marine isnt the first boys in there either..If you know anything about the 82nd. We were the first inside many if not all hostile zones in Afganistan long before some pussy Marines.. < theres your answer!!!!! But you just keep on sniffing them farts...since you think the world is all fun and games.. and a bed of roses.. News update its NOT!! Go write some poetry kid you bother me...
nice speech but im sure when the shit hit the fans youll stay in your darkened room preaching on the internet about how soldiers are rapest in murders. u think the system is fucked, fight against it. soldiers, for who ever side their on (right or so very wrong) have earned my respect because they are willing to fight for what they believe in. dont get me wrong im as opposed to our troops in the middle east as the next guy, but thats because there fighting the wrong war, and in many cases not the war they joined up to fight. just because bush and the evil fucks he worked with tricked these poor guys into a war they shouldnt be fighting doesnt make the soldiers bad people(it makes me sad theres no hell for donald, dick, and george to go). im sure many of our soldiers would prefer to be the fuck out of iraq and either a(into afghanistan or b(at home where they can help our citizens. anyways im rambling and getting side tracked so ill stop now. my point it those in iraq who were tricked into going there have my upmost respect and sympathy, thats my opinion anyways. whats yours?
ok, that just wasn't nice. I was not dissing your intelligence. Wow! I didn't understand you, chill man. Obviously you have had anger beat into you by the military to hate other countries or whoever disagrees with you or is trying to make sense out of what you were saying. What you did is highly unappropriate especially for a hippy forum. Obviously you think the world is all killing or all stupid if it's not what you agree with. So I agree with the other guy, nice speach, but grow some brains instead of being brainwashed into believing whatever you are trained to believe. You are now marked as a bad post. And we're supposed to look up to these guys????? Ok, man, you proved a lot there. Mr. Macho. Maybe I will write some poetry that will stand for all eternity because writing lasts longer than any unintelligent angry words, and it'll be marked down as a remembrance of what military say about other people. Thank you for your one phrase of encouragement.
i dont find the way he reacted out of line at all. u accuse him and all of his brothers of being dumb, war hungry, killers. orison thank you for your service
Im not even reading what you said, Cause its stupid. If you think that all soldiers are killers then your brainwashed... Im glad you showed how you defend your free speech... you tell the cops... HAHA.. BAD POST.. Cry baby in the basement of mommys house cant handle the truth is shunned by society, Believes We Ex Soldiers Dont Defend The Peace... FUCK YOU!! Accually little maggots like you make me wish I never came here to begin with! Hip? yeah your hip alright.. You haveny been outside your own town let alone all over the world.. And I chose to go there So that others can live as free as you you fucking retard... You whin about not being free, how your a prisioner, How I was brainwashed... You low life wormy dirt bag! You just dont know the half of it, I come here to get away from hearing the baby talk in other forums... Mr Macho.. Dude Ill just ignore that so not to give you another verbal ass woopin. Good luck with putting the Marines down though.. You should go down to a Federal Building, poke one in the chest< tell me how that goes... You want free speech be glad you got it, and some others around the world got it to because of the MARINES!
ok, 2 misunderstanders then. I'm not calling them all killers if you've read my earlier posts. Thanks guys. I thought people knew how to read. Some are good, some are bad as I stated before.
OK then Your on the same page have a good night sir, remember how some post are taken by Ex-soldiers as we to try to put things behind us, You cant forget they need your support, Sorry if you dont feel you should support that.. But that is your right also.
What goverment would that be? other countries goverments do it all the time, After the US and other countries supply weapon to them? Who has to clean it up? Guess.
