No not typing police haha. Just thought it was funny that you were trying to prove a point that she was stupid, and ditzy and then you misspell a word you were focused on building up. It was "comical" to me.

Interesting.
We have all the usuall "I love my country so much I am blind and will do/say anything to support it" people here.
I is amasing how faith, or a strongly held opinion can make you deaf. I have seen little intelligent debate about her opinions. It is easy to condem people, do you have the intelligence to make a well rounded argument though?
There is a challenge.
I won't argue against you though. I am not here because I either support or dispute her argument, or yours for that matter. It just occured to me that so far if I was scoring on intelligence, content and presentation, she is still ahead of you guys.
Please remember - NOT ONE of the wars America is currently fighting is protecting Americans on American soil from foreign aggressors.
Now please make your case.

Firstly, thanks for some proper debate, without any name calling. This is what I am here for!
So, firstly I would say that I do not think that any military person who kills under orders is a murderer. This is a stupid point of view, as I am shure many would agree. It is an old philosphical question is it not. To blame the soldier or the general? Having made that clear, I am sure you are as aware, probably more so, than the rest of us that the military has been let down by some bad apples, and they are murderers. Killing for fun, becasue they can. I admit this is a tiny percentage of the armed forces, but we both know it does happen.
My biggest beef with the whole argument is that people seem to swallow the lie that any of these wars are in any way protecting the public of the US, the UK, or any other westerners. They don't. They make us all much more likely to come under attack fromm terrorists beacuse we just stuck a stick in the wasps nest. Even British government ministers have openly stated that the public are at increased risk because of these actions.
Logical bit: If the wars overseas were making the US population safer, why the need for ever increasing security at airports? Surely 10 years into the war on terror we should be well on the way to quashing the threat and making these security checks unecesary?
So either we failed to win the war so these security checks are still required, or the war has nesecitated them?
I don't support the forces, nor do I support the individual soldiers who are fightinng these wars.
I DO respect them as individuals, and I respect their bravery (I could not do their job in a million years).
"Cranial rectal inversion" - I like that. Although I would say that actually my beleifs are based on listening to everyone, rather than turning a blind eye (Or def ear) to the bits which don't fit my personal philosophy.
