What is with the Vietnam clique that Schizophrenia and drug use excuse making seem to be a large part of your character?

You guys'll have to forgive me for not being part of the generation that punked out on God and completely screwed this country up from top to bottom. And then, as if that wasnt enough, to go on and compound the dimentia by holding fast to the notion that you can teach my generation what is right or wrong.

I think my generation has handled things a hell of alot better than yours ever dreamed of, so lose the condescension over your age and therefore implied wisdom.

We, who fought in Vietnam, fought for our country, for our brothers, for our honor, and for our freedom. We did not fight so some totalitarian could take those freedoms under the guise of security. You have no conception of freedom, nor of honor, and we can't presume to tell your generation $hit, mainly because that's all they already understand. $hit!

Prove this.

so lose the condescension over your age and therefore implied wisdom.

So what's with the "grow up Bro" crap from your end? You started that condescension angle all by yourself. I was pointing it out to you. Is that the only thing to which you were capable of responding?

Now, since you are so much better prepared for life than I, how about answering my questions in a rational matter. Try to convince me that your view is correct, rather than attacking me personally. Of course, you'd have to do that leftest thing and attack me personally if you have no substance to discuss. Right?

The essense of political discussion is exchange of ideas. I don't see that you have attempted to do this in any of your posts. Explain how resonable compromise can be reached in this manner.

Perhaps your generation can't approach the issues after all.

I have a very hard time believing a Marine would make such a statement.
