There are so many things wrong with this statement, and your reasons for making it. Yeah, freedom of speech... Go bill of rights... Hope you realize how that bill came to be. The blood, sweat, and tears of Americas Soldiers, and Soldiers of nations who believed in them.

The Military can do so much more then "swing, at full force, against an organized enemy" Adapting, Improvising, Overcoming... Placing the mission first, Never accepting defeat, Never quitting, and Never leaving a fallen soldier behind. Given a mission, the military will do their damn well best to complete that mission.

But, since I'm a member of the "big dumb club" all I'm smart enough for is to tell you to Eat **** and die.

Shouldn't have read this **** before my plane ride.

I hope your kids do join against your will, because they want to support the nation in that way. I believe that less then one percent serve in uniform. What's that say about the rest?
