You're toast, socialist scum.

I went to high school and university in Canada, and I'm ashamed.

Sounds about like the Army, regarding the fobbit/fob goblin/meat eater. Best description I've seen yet.

God Bless the MARINES!!!
I had one in my section. Wish they all were! (Thanks Sanders)

Prayers work the same for Army!

NEVER, NEVER, NEVER... stop praying!!!
While we shouldn't be surprised,
it's amazing how well it works. I 100% believe the only reason I'm alive is because of faithful prayer.

Been back for 6 months...

Talked to my son as he waited to embark. Marines patrol! They walk every street, every alley, they poke their noses into shops and watch everything/everybody. Bad guys know if they try to pull any $hit, they will have, in essence, stuck their hand in a meat grinder.

Army guys, I duuno - death before dismount I guess. They drive around a lot. Maybe it works, but compare causality rates in Al Anbar between the Army and Marines.

Foot patrols send a strong message - sort of like staring Death in the face every day at close range....

By God in Heaven, we the damn people had better get crackin' to stop the democrat/liberal/leftisdt/BM (big media) as they seek to force failure down our throats endangering our courageous, patriotic, best Americans Forces fighting OUR damn wars ... The Marine has the floor: "I still know that I’m doing exactly what I’m supposed to be doing in ridding the world of these evil people. If these people weren’t here trying to kill us, they’d be figuring out a way to get over to American and kill us there. The proliferation of the ideals that these people dedicate themselves to, present as great a threat to the world as those of Hitler." THAT is said the best and ought to be what we shove down democrat throats every time they open their treacherous, lying, seditious pie holes! God bless and keep safe this Marine and his charges outside and inside the wire.
