But for those thinking of doing it, male or female, gay or straight, right or left, black or white or ...anything, I say this: DON'T. You'll regret it. If you've got a big heart, if you're sensitive and caring, and spiritually aware, I guarantee it.

Again, if you are a conscious soul, DON'T join the military. There are effects you will have to deal with. And once you deal with them, you won't be able to get back the time spent. You will have alot of life you can't think about, if you were in a long time.

It's very wrong, but it's all about brute force and greed. And those are always wrong.

If you're in it, GET OUT. The sooner the better.  You've already had the great good fortune of finding this website. Don't blow it by staying in what is essentially an abusive situation.

Hate to be so blunt, but it's really just that simple. (The warnings part is for any guests or new people who may not realize what they are getting themselves into, and "just in case." They need to be scared out of it, as I wish someone could have done with me. But I was too idealistic and naive at that time, too stubbornly wanting to believe the propaganda. And forget the money they offer, the college stuff, the
travel where you don't really see anything intimately. Forget job training and all the rest. I would venture to say that by the time you're out, IF you ever get out, you'll be so worked over by them that you won't even care about those things anyway.
Your mind will be so scrambled you won't know right from left, unless told so by superiors. It's not the Revolutionary War anymore, kids. It's the war for your mind, your soul. The war for control. BELIEVE IT.)

P.S. Yes I support the military personnel, I support the few thinking higher ups, the reforms, the very rare true warriors at the top. I admire and am grateful for the good and caring and heroic motives of people who die for this country. This isn't about motives,though, it's about the bigger picture, about reality. I'd rather have these wonderful heroes alive then dead, and for anybody whose going to call me

unpatriotic, or ask what I am doing, I say this : Don't tread on me. Ya got that? I've got more true patriotism and love of freedom in my little finger than you do in your entire body. I guarantee it. And I hope this pissed you off.

Try not to get pissed off over it though.  Don't get yourself all worked up over things you can do nothing about.  If it really is an issue for you though, and you find that you can't get it out of your mind, then maybe try to instead find a way that you can do your part to expose this.  I mean, that's all I can suggest, finding a way where you feel that you are actually doing something, however small.   Alex Jones does his part in exposing the truth behind modern military service, but it's up to you though if you feel comfortable doing that.  If you are unable to do anything, then just try to not think about it since it's out of your control.

Watch the video.  What really pissed me off was seeing the poor soldier at the end answering a question.  I really felt sorry and angry for the guy.  Putting a human face on it (and actually seeing it) is really going to make me look at the government differently.  This is the mind of innocents, and they saw nothing wrong with it.
