    Notice how this whole video was people in the ARMY. Heres another idea maybe people shouldn't be so ignorant in thinking there not going to war. This video made me sick. "Weapons arent prejudice, they dont see black, white" wtf is that supposed to mean weapons are meant to destroy humans why would it be prejudice, why should that even be an issue. Didn't get your Mont. GI Bill because its only usuable while your in the military WRONG, the GI Bill can be used up to 10 yrs. after you GET OUT of the military. And then the guy that said alls that he knows how to do is clean his weapon and kill people its called the ARMY and the infantry the two sources for your problem buddy. War is Hell women and children die its a part of the evil. This video does show you how shitty recruiting is but its not all like that.

    War is the continuation of politics by other means... politics is evil, not war. :)

    i am in the military and i think it's great. i am a 2 time veteran of the iraq war. yes, war is terrible... BUT THAT IS THE NATURE OF THE MILITARY!!!! these people made a choice and they just need to suck it up. These people who say that "they were only 18 or 19 years old when they enlisted, they had on idea about what they were getting into"... PLEASE!!!! WAR IS THE NATURE OF THE MILITARY!!!!!! Yes recruiters are kind of shady... that's why these people need to do research before they make a life changing choice. my heart goes out to all my brothers and sisters in arms who has lost thier lives or who have been injured. my advice to anyone who is thinking about joining the military is to get everthing you are promissed in writing, because if it isn't in writing, you won't get it. these people who are having employment problems when they get out have those problems because they didn't have a plan when they got out. they also didn't take full advantage of the military. the military offers FREE COLLEGE while you are in. they only thing you have to come out of pocket on is books. I have been in 5 years and i am credits away from getting an associates degree in construction management and i am a certified home inspector. All of this while serving 2 tours in a combat zone. the GI bill is good for upto 10 years after leaving active service. they also have a buy in plan to where you can increase the amount of you GI bill upto $53,000. Don't take my word for it, do the reasearch if you are thinking about enlisting, deffinatly dont take this film's word for it. again my heart goes out to all the families of the people who have been lost or injured in this terrible, brutal war, you will be in my prayers.

    Here's a hint. If your in the military there is a risk of death even if you are not deployed to a war zone. How many of the 2800+ deaths in Iraq were accidents? I have read of driving accidents, training accidents, not all these deaths were by hostile actions. Many were but, not all. I live in a town with an Army post and let me tell you, a vast majority of those who join our military come out out of their hitch discilpined and ready to move on with their lives. We have many members of the armed forces who are teachers, business owners as well as your everyday "Joe Six Pack" working man/woman. The losers they talked to in this film are a very small minority. The people who made this film are dredging up that ol' Vietnam era "only the poor fight the war" bullshit. I teach in a local high school and most of my former students who joined up were from well to do families. Hell, one of my best athletes joined the Marines, his parents were both teachers. I would say 95% of enlistees join out of a sense of patriotism, of being part of something bigger than themselves. These people who talk about rapes, drug dealing and assaults on Army Posts, forget one thing. They are rare and when it does happen it does make the news. To be intellectually honest, our armed forces does reflect our society. We have a overwhelming majority of good people in our military and a few assorted scumbags. Shit, I bet you have a pedophile living within 2 blocks of your house! These idiots want you to buy into the liberal stereotype of the typical military enlistee as some sort of out of luck loser who can't hold down a real job when he gets out. If any of you young people are considering entering the military, please remember you are making a committment, period. These people on this video had trouble living up to their committments. I am sure that many of these people on this video would still be living at home with their parents. In closing, for those of you who read this, any member of

    Wow, I'm shocked. I joined the Army in 1998, well before 911 and I knew exactly what I was getting into. Do you people even hear yourselves? A-R-M-Y. Still not clear? Ok, how 'bout this: S-O-L-D-I-E-R. Not C-O-L-L-E-G-E. Give me a break. You can use your G.I. Bill anytime; I know because I have three soldiers using it right now! Cindy Sheehan: rot in hell. You are pathetic. My mother raised three sons, two of which have already fought in Iraq (my middle brother is a wounded veteran, a PROUD one), and the youjngest is getting ready to go. Who seriously joins the Army thinking you'll never have to fight? Are you trying to tell me that the fault lies with the recruiter and not the person that WILLINGLY signs a contract and raises their right hand, swearing to protect our country "against all enemies, both foreign and domestic?" I'm not a lawyer, but defending something implies you may have to fight. I have lost friends in this war, and will be glad when its over. But to use these deaths to promote YOUR agenda....words fail me.
