Gbull is completely right.

I work with old people all day. Me, and three other people at work are under 65. The other 246 drivers are over that. They ALL served in the military. You ask any one of them and they will have stories for hours. They all talk about it, they can relate and they can bond. It is something that ties their generation together. Two veterans can meet in an empty room and after some awkward silence one of them will notice the tattoo the one has or something to that effect and say "You know my brother was in the marines". And they'll go off and get along great. Our generation has nothing like that. We have no tieing bond. They were all proud to serve and they all knew that if they were drafted they had to go. I can guarantee you they wouldn't have too high an opinion of a draft dodger.

Even if your beliefs don't support the war, you live in the country and part of that is having to do things for it. I'm a pretty hard guy to make mad, but one thing that aggravates me to no end is the newspapers and the people who say things like "Oh look at this some poor kid was just trying to get through college and now he has to go to war". What the fuck. The military WILL pay for your college on the condition that you serve!

That's terrible that they signed up for the military and now they are being CRUELLY FORCED to do what the military does. They just wanted to rob the US government to pay for their education. IMPEACH BUSH.

What if you saw someone who agreed to take out a loan and now that EVIL bank is trying to make them pay it back. They were just trying to get an education! For shame!

I know that it might seem like these statements don't really flow correctly; that I said Gbull is correct and then did not directly support his statements, but what I mean is more that I would have said what Gbull said myself, then launched into this little rant.
