I think we should take all the inmates doing life in US prisons, clogging up the cells and costing us money... Send them all over to Iraq. If they get out alive, they get out of their life in prison sentence. Saves the US tax payers a boat load of money and they get reformed.
Yeah I know it's not practical and they'd only take the guns and kill each other... but, I think it's a better idea than forcing young kids to go fight when they don't want to. This generation has NO idea what true sacrifice is. It would be a mess... I don't want to see this war end up like another Vietnam.
I watched a news documentary the other night on soldiers that returned home from Vietnam the other night. It was saying how a lot of them basically got fucked up in the head, because of the lack of support when they came home, unlike the moral and emotional support troops had coming home from WWI or WWII etc.
They were over there watching death every minute, then they come home and have all these war hippie protestors telling them they are monsters for doing what their country told them to do. Not supporting the war or the troops fighting for us, is BAD mental confusion to vulnerable minds. I have nothing but respect and appreciation for anyone doing it... and would never make them feel like they are wrong for doing so... because I would be scared to death every waking moment.
