There are only two kinds of people that understand Marines: Marines and the enemy.
Everyone else has a second-hand opinion.

Freedom is not free, but the U.S. Marine Corps will pay most of your share.

That's the dumbest statement that you ever posted.

Freedom is absolutely free.

People are born free, then spend the rest of their lives trying to remain free.

While others spend their lives trying to force their idea of freedom down your throat,
under penalty of prison or death.

No Viet Namese person ever threatened my freedom.

No Iraqi has ever threatened my freedom.

No Afghanistan person  has ever threatened my freedom.

No Taliban member has ever threatened my freedom.

But for some strange reason some people is killing, and has killed thousands upon
thousands of these people defending my freedom.

The only persons who's freedom they are defending is their own.

They act to preserve their own right to kill people world wide.

And justify it as defending my freedom.

I authorize no person to kill to defend my freedom.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA......that's what you call a false religion......


...you are a product of your environment, your environment is a product of your priorities, your priorities are a product of you......

The replacement of morality and conscience with law produces a deadly paradox.

DITTO!!

However....some folks are compelled and have the need to belong to a government run 'killing machine'.

I have seen what having the blood of the innocent on their hands do to people.

Patriotism:
to be proud of your country because you are too stupid to accomplish anything yourself

Patriotism is perhaps THE single most effective political tool (though arguably less than religion). This concept of patriotism, of being proud of one's country, is used to control and condition the opinions of the general masses. For just one example of many, consider this:
Sympathizing with a little Iraqi child whose entire family was killed during the US invasion is unpatriotic. And if not unpatriotic, it is at least unimportant compared to the death of a US soldier, because God knows that American lives are more important than any other life!
Politicians will use patriotism to breed resentment to other races and nationalities, and to justify certain actions that otherwise would not be tolerated. It is important to understand that patriotism is also frequently used to "bind" a person to his country, and in doing so, stifle dissent, and make it generally unacceptable. Basically patriotism is a tool to make the general populace have a single opinion that is supplementary to the actions (or future actions) of the politicans in power at the time.
