Baww harder, OP.

bump

Only half a week after the injured marine before libturds turn against the military again.

Yay doublethink.

>>136511
>controlled by businesses
>democrats voted for Iraq and Afghanistan war
>won't get shot for talking about socialism, are you high (probably, which is why you like socialism)

You're an idiot. I'm no supporter of the Iraq war, but I'll support the servicemen that do in fact protect our freedoms by merely choosing to be in the military. Servicemen have the potential to die at any time for any reason given by the government, and for that, I thank them.

babby's first time seeing that image, just couldn't wait until you got out of school tomorrow to post it i guess

>>136511

drama queen much?

if you don't like americ you can gtfo n00b

>I can't buy alcohol on Sundays, thank you.

What shit hole do you live in where you can't buy alcohol on a Sunday?

>>136603
Trying to, but money's tight. It's clear that I don't like it here.

>My athiest friend was beaten for being a "godless hippy", thank you.
>*Because I can't speak about the beefits of socialism with fear of getting shot, thank you.

Lol'd, beaten. Lol'd, benefits. Hey OP, why don't you just fucking move? Stop bitching about it and leave. xD

>>136627
Also, get a job you godless hippy, lmao.

0/10

>>136614
From my knowledge its mostly the south.

>>136614
Fucking Mississippi. At least I don't live in a county where it's banned outright.

>For being dumb enough to believe the recruiter and thinking that Afganistan was like CoD

CoD came out in 2003, Afghanistan was invaded in 2001.

>>136649
I have a job, I said that money is tight.

>he can't buy alcohol on sundays

And what theocratic southern state do YOU live in, OP?

>securing oil but inadverdently jacking up prices of gas

The mission was not to secure oil. If it was, gas would be $1 a gallon.

CUUUUCKOOOLD THHRREEAD GEENNEERRAAAAAAAALL!

>>136639
Read this.
>>136627

>>136668
Sounds like you need to stop spending it on your hippy drugs, save up, and gtfo. :3

>>136668
I wouldn't say that because it opens the flood gates to why don't you have a better paying job.

>"freedom" in a loose form.
You're not free cause you can't smoke weed? Don't get me wrong, I'm for legalization, but don't you think that's hyperbole?

Also, you can talk about socialism freely (dunno about Mississippi, but where I am you can).

>>136687
Because we marched into a country where the most powerful man on earth had faulty intel and just decided to topple it's government anyways?

>mfw you'll cry for them back the second they disappear

>>136668
Stop spending it on drugs.

>>136708
Basically. They thought there were nukes, there weren't.

>>136687
>The mission was not to secure oil. If it was, gas would be $1 a gallon.

how would the companies that secured the oil make money selling it for that cheap.

>>136707
I'm not saying tha because I can't smoke means that it's a totalitarian dictatorship, I'm saying that if we are supposedly free, why can't I do what I want to my own body?

>>136735
Retards will do stupid shit because of it.

Leave it to one to ruin it for the rest of us.

OP is a poorfag who wants into a country that has "socialism" so that he doesnt have to work as hard.
It is no wonder you are poor and "money is tight", please leave asap.

>>136734
Instability makes traders, namely oil companies, nervous.

>>136734
>implying oil companies are barely turning a profit

They would have a healthy profit at that price compared to their absurd profits now. Most of the price now is because OPEC is not pumping as much as they can (see the 70's OPEC embargo for the full story).

>>136735
the government isn't stopping you from smoking weed

you're just pussy ass bitch

>>136754
that was my fucking point.

>>136735
I think it should be legal. But we're still free. Are you in slavery because you can't smoke weed or meth? No. You'll be fine without any drug.

op, guys like you make me feel a little less alone in the world.

brofist

>>136735
Secondhand smoke.

it's not the oil companies that are nervous, it's the consumers

if the consumers are afraid of an oil shortage the price goes up even if the companies have plenty of oil

>>136767
You're missing the point. If we are free, then why are they saying that I can't do whatever I want to myself?

I got 8 more years until retirement. Keep working in your dead end job and stay jelly OP.

I'm not opposed to the military, but I fucking hate it when servicemen expect me to give them some extra level of respect because they "serve" me. If you serve me, why do I need to give you extra respect? I pay your housing and in return you fight wars that I may or may not have voted in favor of. You're not even the best serviceman; I get more reliable service from McDonald's. Yet, you don't see them getting their panties up in a bunch when I treat them like exactly every other human being. You think "serving the country" is an act of high morality? Great, then don't say it. If you expect thanks for your acts, then how can you say you're doing a good act for me? You get paid, that should be enough.

>>136789
no I'm not

you can smoke weed if you want to, you just have to accept the consequences

>>136789
You're making a big deal out of nothing. Yes, it is an intrusion upon liberty. It is not a big deal, as sooner or later it will be legal.

>>136775
Right back at you, nigga.

>>136774
Haven't I explained this twice already?

>>136769
Oil is a flexible commodity. People WILL buy oil, no matter the price. With that thought, you can jack up the price and still make more. But the war certainly doesn't help things. I would have to charge more if I had to pay to protect my workers from getting shot while extracting oil.

>>136779

fucking non-smokers using this half-asses excuse too much. There is a very easy way to avoid inhaling second-hand smoke. It's called MOVING AWAY FROM THE SMOKE. I understand why you no longer wish for us to smoke indoors, and I'm cool with that. That said, I cannot stand anyone complaining about second-hand smoke when I'm enjoying my cancer-sticks Out-FUCKING-Side.

>>136904
Do you know how few barrels of oil the US gets from Iraq?

>>136571

BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAW SERVICEMEN GO OFF TO DIE IN A PHONY WAR, BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAW THEY COULD BE KILLED FOR ANY MOMENT BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAW THEY FIGHT FOR YOU! BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAW

Shut the fuck up. They don't fight for me, I could give a shit if nobody for the next 50 years signed up for the military. Fuck them and fuck you, I don't give a shit. Maybe if they don't want to die, they should stop fucking signing up. I have as much sympathy for servicemen and women as I do for some drunk moron running into traffic, very little if you can't decipher that code, it's their own fault. Why should I thank them? They haven't defended my freedom for shit.

>>136921
i agree with this. pisses me off when people just want to flat outlaw smoking. I love my states no indoor smoking law, but that's as far as i want it to go.

Hey OP, enjoy the freedom and privilege you are utilizing to be able to:

1) Even post those thoughts of yours
2) Have a computer to post them with
3) Have access to the electricity to power said computer with
4) Be alive to enjoy said electricity, and not dead for having different views as the government of your country.

Ijs.

>>136921

I hear ya broskeim. I want to at least enjoy myself if I'm killing myself.

>>136946
Do you know how much oil US companies get?
Just because they don't send it here doesn't mean they don't make money from it.

>>136958

I'd think it was great if we didn't have an army in the Cold War so we'd be commies right now.

>>136904
>People WILL buy oil, no matter the price. With that thought, you can jack up the price and still make more.
except competition

I also dislike servicemen. Of course, there are the confused 18-year-olds with nothing better to do who get out of it quickly, or use it to pay for school. Most of them probably don't really buy the jingoism. But any careerist is a fucking prick. And I've told Marines to their face I thought they were scum, I'm not scared of them or the unwarranted national dicksucking they all get.

>>136946
this is slightly off topic, but most of the contracts were sold to western nations after the conquer of iraq. about 40% of america's oil comes from north africa and the mid east. iraq holds the second largest stockpile. Libya has the largest reserves in africa and a very low cost of production.
These wars could be just a long-term strategy to secure oil.

>>137023
>about 40% of america's oil comes from north africa and the mid east
nope

>>137008
>Tonight on channel 13, local man gets beaten and sent to hospital for calling Marines scum. Full story at 10.

Military.

How's it feel to be Israel's bitch?

Serious Question, no gay bros, no gay.

Do any of you fucks EVER think about quitting the armed forces over this fact?

i agree OP.

Its foolish to honor, praise, and thank someone because they decided to be a faggot and fight for corporations. They fucking deserve to have the Westboro baptist church picket their funerals

>>137036
16% + 21% is about 40, right?
regardless, american reserves are running out faster than african and mid-eastern reserves

>>137045
Nope. Been in a handful of fights but that wasn't one of them. I could probably have won though, they didn't look like much. It's a misconception that everyone in the military is automatically strong, basic doesn't even seem that difficult.

>>137069
that says source of imports
it ignores domestic oil

As a conservative I want to thank you OP. Your attitude helps to make sure the voters will hate your side right off the bat. Thanks.

>>137082
then how much is it? i can't find the figures.

>>137071

Your points are reasonable, but why in the hell are blaming our servicemen? Aren't you supposed blame the people in charge? Are you just jelly because they put their lives on the line and in return might get 1 thank you when walking down the road? If your that mad why don't you go to a more free country?

InfantryVetFag here... I don't. The only time I tell anyone that I served is if I've known them for a while or if it's required for a job or school application. I did my time, now I want to be left the fuck alone about it.

>>137008

I'll let you in on a little secret. When you do that, we thank you. It's a tangible reminder that we actually fought for what we swore to. I will not stand in your way if you so choose to be a disgusting, AIDS infected cum bubble dripping out of someone's ass. Now that I'm out, I'm going to take every chance that I have to tell you exactly what I think about you.

>can't destroy your body with evil substances
>can't advocate subversive ideologies
WHAT A TERRIBLE STATE OF AFFAIRS!

I have mixed feelings about servicemen. My cousin joined the army, fought for a couple years, and got whatever the code word is for getting kicked out for wanting to kill yourself all the time.
I feel bad, because he has a permanent reminder of the horror he saw, in the form of a scar on his cheek, from when a chunk of his best friend's skull scratched him when said friend got his head blown off right next to him.
At the same time, it was my cousin's decision to join. He knew what he was getting himself into. He thought that fighting for a war he never believed in was better than getting a shitty job with a high school diploma. Instead of applying for grants and scholarships, and going to at least a community college, he thought this was a great alternative. He never went to college on the GI Bill, because when he got out, he loafed around, doing drugs at raves, getting drunk all the time, and just being an asshole in general. Not even the crazy kind of asshole you could feel sorry for, just an asshole.
Tl;dr My cousin saw fucked up shit, but he very easily could've avoided all that. He chose that.
