Shango, you wouldn't fight for your country if it were being attacked? What about the people, your friends, and your family? You'd just let them get wasted?

I would fight if I had to, but considering the shape i'm in the US military would have to be in serious trouble if they needed to draft me. But I would be willing to fight for my country if we were attacked.
Visit and shop for video games at my Amazon-based store, also get discounted HD DVDs while they last.

What do you do?

2) All of the countries who were blessed with Live 8 concerts are being attacked by terrorists. Your country is being attacked on a regular basis. Do you go and defend your country? Why or why not?

Consider it!
1) I do one of two things. I either go up to Canada or I go to the Selective Service Office and convince them that I'm gay.

2) As far as our country actually being attacked, it would depend. Would I do it voluntarily? No. If a draft came up and I had to fight, then yes I would. While I think the War in Iraq is bogus, I don't mind going after people who have actually attacked the United States.
When you see Jerusalem being surrounded by armies, you will know that its desolation is near. Then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains, let those in the country not enter the city. For this is the time of punishment in fullfillment of all that has been written. How dreadful it will be in those days for pregnant women and nursing mothers! There will be great distress in the land and wrath against this people. They will fall by the sword and be taken as prisoners to all nations. Jerusalem will be trampled on by the Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled.
...At that time they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. When these things begin to take place, stand up and lift up your heads, because your redemption is drawing near.
Luke 21:20-28

I would go but if given a choice I would specialize in the military that is not that dangerous. If I didn't have a choice and just have to do front line infantry I would just try to watch my back and be as careful as possible and not take any stupid risks and just hope that I make it back alive.
Park the old car that I love the best
Inspections due and it won't pass the test
Funny how I have to put it to rest
And someday I will join it.

Consider it!

1) I'd attempt to leave the country, and if anyone tried to forcibly stop me, I'd fight them to the death. Of course, I doubt I'd have to, as the U.S. would be dealing with so many other people of the same mindset that they'd drop the draft nonsense within a week.

2) It depends on how severe the attacks were. If the attacks were consistent but minor (frequent suicide bombers or other terrorist bullcrap) I wouldn't do anything. If we were facing a viable enemy that was actually a serious threat to the nation or just the civilized world in general (i.e. Germany in WWII) I'd strongly consider joining the military, but only if I trusted the nation's leaders to make the right decisions. In other words, the Republicans would have to be out of the white house and be the minority party in congress.

It doesn't matter to me who is in charge. I don't trust any politicians. They are all corrupt liars that will say anything to get what they want.


If the minority party had the whitehouse and congress there would never be a war anyway.
