    Nah, fighting skills can be learned - I'm much more worried about the internal drama queen battles
    With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion.

      By the way, there is at least one gay U.S. veteran on here - Wittlich. He was in a military branch, IIRC.

        Well, IIRC, I wont put Wittlich in the drama queen category

          Clearly the general was using the more colloquial form of "gay" to mean wimpy, i.e. European. Thus he was accurate despite being un-PC.

                They shouldn't conscript at any age.

                But don't worry about continuing, I won't bite again.

                  12 year olds should pay income tax on their allowance?

                    ...you could at least have made a joke about aiming a rifle with limp wrists or something, made an attempt to tie it in with the subject. That's just lazy gayjokesmanship right there.

                          I don't know where you get bully. I think teh geyz being distracted by stuff and ACTUALLY being the cause of the base failure is funny. You need to lighten up too.


                          If you think that everything said by anyone who used to have some authority is something to get all worked up about, you suck.

                            12 year olds should be put to work in coal mines for tuppence a day, and then taxed on those earnings.

                              What about food and shelter ? Should they have that for free ?

                                The thing about Ozzy's crusade that irks me is he apparently thinks children should all be given equal rights as adults without the accompanying responsibilities.
