I can completely understand patriotism! If you read it right I was trying to explain that I am proud of anyone that joins and grateful for my freedom and I will add I am sadden by the war that is going on right now... and all of the people we have lost...
But why I would not join is because I feel once you have went to war for your country because you wanted to join and help your country I feel that the U.S should take care of all of those people for the rest of their lives! And it doesn't happen and look at the war we are in right now? Was it really called for?
Those people over there are risking their lives for us right now (god bless their souls) and we owe them! For heavens sake we should take care of them once they get out of that mess over there... but what will happen.. the war will end someday and those people will struggle to live in this crazy world that we all live in... and be forgotten by many....
And I don't know if you watch CNN etc... but I have seen so many shows of people that got hurt over there and here we are not taking care of them right.... just breaks my heart!
Why would I want to be treated like that?
