    Why are Americans so Patriotic?

    And other countries aren't? Have you ever watched an episode of Doctor Who? VERY Nationalist British. And I like it. And I'm an American. Who serves in the armed forces. Seriously, why was this topic needed?

    Do members of the military get too much respect? What profession do you respect the most?

    *sigh* Knock one out, another pops up. Cash being stuffed in the DOD's pockets? Since when!? Last I checked, the military is downsizing. While sustaining two conflics. I almost didn't get paid last month. I think you need to check your facts.

    Do members of the military get too much respect? What profession do you respect the most?

    I never read comic books... So, at least I brought it into the real world before Hugh Jackman. Bub. ;) I do agree that my country is sue happy. And it disgusts me. On the flipside, my country doesn't like to take responsibility. So there IS an active need for the lawsuit function. Look...

    Do members of the military get too much respect? What profession do you respect the most?

    Bub (yes, I use it. No, it doesn't make me cool. I make IT cool. I used it before Wolverine. Welcome to real life. Everything isn't about Hollywood.) You missed the point about five posts back. I'm through with you. If you can't understand the differences between countries (doctors get paid...

    Do members of the military get too much respect? What profession do you respect the most?

    Korelev, I'm glad you raised some of those points. FYI, it is a Soldier's duty to NOT follow illegal orders. Illegal orders are classified as orders that are contradictory to the oath the Soldier swore, or the ROE for the current conflict. Shooting civilians (as an example) is an illegal order...

    Oh wow... I can't even being to list the number of things wrong with your statement. 1. You drop the attitude. I was just educating you, bub. 2. Maybe that's how it's done in the UK (or wherever you're from) but doctors over here have VERY good lawyers. They do NOT get in trouble for...

    Paramedics actually do put themselves in danger. Far more than firefighters. EMTs are the ones who don't put themsleves in danger.

    Do members of the military get too much respect? What profession do you respect the most?

    The first link is to crime reports and statistics. Murders included. I was admitting, and demonstrating my error in my original statement. The second link (if you cared to read the sources) is taken from reports of actual documented negligence. Not reports of negligence, or "unavoidable...

    Sorry about your friend. However, the only hate mongering right now is coming from you. Fix yourself, and your jacked up attitude.

    You're absolutely right. I misspoke. http://www.disastercenter.com/crime/uscrime.htm http://www.naturodoc.com/library/public_health/doctors_cause_death.htm 14,748 murders a year 250,000 deaths from negligence a year. Doctors are overpaid.

    Do members of the military get too much respect? What profession do you respect the most?

    No. No we do not get too much respect. Actors, doctors (responsible for 70% of homicides in the United States due to negligence), politicians, and firefighters (you'll all probably be shocked, but it's true. Those guys sit around the firehouse 2-3 days a week, and then have 2-3 full weeks off...

    Star Wars: The Old Republic....thoughts?

    What... Are you smoking? That looks fun. And incredibly polished for a Beta. Looks more polished than the WoW Beta. Heck, looks more polished than the WoW launch was.

    Poll: American?s disillusion with WW2

    Hey genius. If the French deserve the credit, why did your own Navy have to sink one of their fleets? The Ameri-hate that runs rampant on the web is just retarded. I am a US Army officer and I have no problems sharing credit when said credit is due, nor do I have any pressing need to claim...
