Default Re: self censorship

"but this is not an excuse to kill 500,000 civilians w/ 4,000,000 next of kin who will seek vengeance for a generation."

so you are saying each marine has an individual responsibility to decide if his actions are correct and for the overall good of the human race? it seems impossible to run an armed forces with this mentality, however it is the exact reason i would never join.

i find it hard to hold individual marines to these terms, and i place the blame on the government.

btw, slightly off topic but such a great quote from Lord of War: "the earliest human beings were found with spears in their heads"
