let's get real here. I was on a ship with marines, I see how they act. They want nothing more than to get some "action" And by action I'm not talking about sex with hot chicks.

This general is just saying what many marines want.

Well, honesty never killed anybody.

The only thing that always trumps it is knowing when to keep your mouth shut.

One has to wonder though how he got to be a general in the first place. Jeez.

They want to shoot people? What a bunch of sickos.

Where I come from, a sure way to dodge conscription is to say things like that to the psycologist at the recruitment evaluation process (if they think you really mean it). The recruitment officers would put you as far away from weapons training as possible.

Considering that gladiator fights were a most favored entertainment form in Rome, and that public executions always attracted lots of spectators, it's quite obvious that violent death is a form of "fun" for humans. And it is also obvious that many people enlist in voluntary militaries because they want that kind of action (many people also enlist in the police in the hopes of seeing some brawl-like action)

This is really unsurprising. And this is why the psychos should be gethered in a specific corps, that is sent to "action" only when really needed. These people should be sent in free-fire zones, but certainly not on peacekeeeping or stabilisation missions.

His comments are inappropriate but he's not a diplomat and you need soldiers who relish the fight.

So George Bush Jr. can sleep easy then.

George Santayana
To delight in war is a merit in the soldier, a dangerous quality in the captain, and a positive crime in the statesman.

Yeah pretty funny fighting untrained and underequipped opponents.

What a moron.

How does he pick those who slapped women from those who didn't? Don't tell me he wants to exterminate the male population in the country he invaded.

The Marine Corps of the united states is the only modern military unit I know about that seems to take pride in building up a reputation about themselves as a bunch of ignorant and stupid brutes.

**Chemical Ollie** · February 4, 2005, 08:51

I wouldn't call them ignorant and stupid, I believe the IQ needed to qualify is above average. Brain washed would be a more appropriate term.
