I love how some of you act like if someone doesn't play dress up with army surplus gear then they must be some government sheep. For the love of God give it a rest.

if you are actually prepared, you wouldn't be saying it online. Right now the Skynet crawler bot is locating you and putting what they will take from you in their database.

QUOTE (Mommy @ Jun 24 2009, 08:11 AM)  My husband is attached to an infantry brigade. Do you really think that if something were to happen to this country, the government would keep things from him and his family? Uh no. haha well, FDR did about pearl harbor. technically the US embassy is supposed to take care of us and evacuate us on military airplanes in case of an emergency...but with the 30,000 troops and their families, im wondering if there would even be time to get to the 10,000 english teachers and other guys we've got here. especially if something happened by surprise, there's nothing they could really do

not dishonest
just emphasising the point that the military is there to maintain order, that the order is necessary to maintain our way of life that protects our rights. but if maintaining order requires the sacrifice of some of those rights, the military will do so. in that event, my personal life doesn't mean much to them, so i can't trust them to have my own interests as priority. sometimes you gotta break a few eggs to make an omlette, etc. but it usually doesn't work out so well for the egg -------------------- QUOTE (Jessica @ May 7 2007, 01:15 PM) but yeehaw dammit.

QUOTE (FORSAKENR320 @ Jun 26 2009, 08:09 PM) i know that the purpose of military is to maintain order. they are not in place to protect individual rights Actually, you need to google something called CCMRF because the Army has a lot more responsibilities now because of that. They now respond to national disasters after state resources have been exhausted (things like Hurricane Katrina, Sept 11), which previously was not allowed. Also, what about the National Guard? They respond to disasters as well to provide relief and yes, keep order.And yeah, the only reason why I know about CCMRF is because my husband is part of 3ID, 1st Brigade, which was the first unit in the United States to receive this mission. Until Sept 30, at 11:59 pm he has strict travel restrictions (can't be more than four hours from base without special permission; and if special permission is granted, the farthest we could travel is Houston) in case a disaster were to arise. |

but as i said in the beginning. all this stuff about "helping" looks really good on paper, and favorable to the military. but, if things go wrong, they get the cop-out excuse "there were complications we hadn't foreseen... we'll do better next time"

QUOTE (Seeker @ Jun 26 2009, 09:41 PM) your husband better hope there's no natural disasters in fort worth that he has to attend to because when he comes knocking at my door trying to confiscate my guns like they did during katrina i will make swiss cheese out of him He's a lab tech. He won't be knocking at anyone's door. He will be analyzing poop, pee, and blood. hah |
