[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I[b] have zero interest [/b]in my sons pursuing a military career, and will not encourage it. The US has undertaken too many morally indefensible operations since WWII, and I do not agree with the mindset of "my country right or wrong," the heavy emphasis on blind obedience to authority, or the strong in-group/out-group dynamic that is encouraged. The handful of my acquaintances who have served as military officers are all somewhat misogynistic and have anger management issues. [/quote]

That's is the difference right there. Your son will go where you have the interest. Kids who go to service academies can make that decision for themselves. [/quote]

That's why when the world is in trouble lib helicopter kids move to the safe zone and cower while the alphas do what needs to be done. After a period of peace the libs regain their confidence and return to their natural state of sniveling and backstabbing. [/quote]

What a juvenile post. "the alphas"?? Seriously? [/quote]

+1. I bet that poster couldn't get into a TTT, much less a service academy. [/quote]

probably a 17 year HS kid still paying with GI Joe toy[/quote]
