  1. Just yesterday, a young man said to me he was joining the Army when–soon–he turns 18. He has his heart set on a Mustang car. I printed this an gave it to him: https://www.dropbox.com/s/dtfa66kxzlwf8pj/enchanted%20costume.jpg?dl=0

  2. “Why do young people opt for the military?”…..I’m unaware of the pay rates in the American Military, but I’ll bet its way better than $7/hour…….

  3. Why do young people opt for the military? Answer: THEY DON’T.
    And if they do, they SHOULDN’T.

    Notice that there are never any rich folks who die in a war. Of course, Great Britain pretends to send a nazi son but, of course, it’s all a sham.

  4. It’s all a sham. Add an ‘e’ and it spells ‘shame’. That’s a terrible meme.

  5. How terrible humans are. The constant filthy talk alone is enough.

    • Imagine that there is God. Imagine He is an all good father. Imagine Him listening, omniscient, to the earth as humans speak and keep on speaking, and speaking, almost as if humans speaking is the most important thing in the world. Imagine.

  6. Imagine what He hears. Oh, humans, keep talking. Surely I want you to.

  8. The military is a young mans game. It has always been that way and it will always be that way. It’s the poor and middle class who serve. I speak from experience… we can not expect to change what has always been. We should not expect a teenager to be well versed in geopolitics or foreign policy. To expect a teenager to view the world as a man with 4-5 decades of life experience under their belt is ridiculous. We are fighting the same wars of aggression, natural resources and regional domination as in the time of the Romans. There truly is nothing new under the sun.

    • It’s a shame we cant ask the brave young(naïve)Americans who were drafted into the American War in Vietnam in the ’60’s and ’70’s, what they think of “Freedom and Democracy”, and the bastard psychopaths from the M.I.C, who sent them to their deaths…..ALL based on a complete LIE.
