You are so backwards. All Rights in the Universe are already there. Turn around and read the Fucking Manual. You are spouting nonsense. It leases no dogs and I suspect you not a US Citizen, since you even could possibly think this way. If you are Mr. Aviator, shame on you.The constitution doesn't confer rights. The constitution is SUPPOSED to be the leash on the dog.
Anyone that tells you that in order for something to be a right is has to be in the constitution is WRONG!

correlation/causationSo you're all fucked in the head...?
Its the pills man, antidepressants and the like... their increased usage coincides too much with the general rise in suicide rates.
Emphatically concur. When we start nickeling&diming our vets, something is seriously rotten in east Saint Louie. cnNothing new here. Vets always suffer more than combat, and as always, it takes a generation to acknowledge it. We had agent orange that the military and industry claimed had no effect, we have depleted uranium that is now said to kill no one except the intended targets, we have always had battle fatigue, shell shock and the like, and many soldiers were called cowards over it, or... slapped in the face for it. When we actually take reality for what it is, when we see that repeated tours of duty take a toll, when we start believing those same folk who we trusted in the first place to protect us, then maybe (if we ever get a break from one war or another), vets will really be taken care of properly. I saw a commercial for "the wounded warriors" charity. WHAT THE FUCK is that? kind of like cake drives for schools? There should never need to be charities for vets, ever.
immediately followed by :From link in op:
Its important to note that the suicide rate overall in the United States has been rising, and veterans actually make up fewer suicide cases proportionately than they did 25 years ago. While the suicide rate in the U.S. has risen 31 percent since 1999, the rate among veterans has risen 22 percent in the same period. So according to calculations offered in a New York Times report, the percentage of the nations suicides that involve veterans is now 21 percent, down from 25 percent in 1999.
But yikes whether the number is one in five or one in four, its still pretty shocking that veterans make up such a high proportion of suicides in this country. Veterans affairs experts explain this by saying that veterans fall into high-risk groups for suicide, which include being male, having access to guns, and living in a rural area, but those factors dont seem to come close to accounting for such a high rate.
yeah must all be about war crimes, never survivors guilt...Suicide is mainly unsolvable problems that won't go away, at least to the person who is suffering.
How do you remove the experience of killing innocent people just because they told you it was the enemy?
How do you reconcile losing your brothers in arms to a stupid IED, who do you blame? Blame everyone.
The guilt eats you alive.
I see it more as the modern day filibuster. But an enlightened anarchist like yourself wouldn't get that kind of concept of what it's like to actually live in society.Spamming rainbow piss in a thread made to bring attention to a dire crisis. Why don't you spam this shit in threads about Zimmerman/Martin? Why are you spamming bullshit in a thread on a topic that deserves attention? Your behavior is unbecoming of a patriot. You take my thread as an affront, but you have no passion for a discussion about 22 veterans killing themselves daily. If you want to say "support our troops", you're doing it wrong.
How? By the US government supporting terrorist organisations?that won't work, because this is how wars are fought today...............................................................................![]()
NO, a fundamental/radical interpretation of islam in the form of "takfir" perpetrated by Sunni Islam (all of the US' allies in the region), calls for them to kill non believers, muslims, jews, Christians, etc...they were Islamic terrorists, from what ever country......you see they don't see 'countries' only "believers" & "Non-believers"......their religion calls for them to kill all non believers.....it's for their own good........
Deciphering (it's necessary)...I see it more as the modern day filibuster. But an enlightened anarchist like yourself wouldn't get that kind of concept of what it's like to actually live in society.
So when a person reads a bunch of bible verses to keep a vote from even happening, that isn't about an insecure man spewing rabid hatred in an attempt to keep society brainwashed using religious mind control? The religion of today might be different, but government is still using the same playbook.Deciphering (it's necessary)...
"I see things differently, but you wouldn't, because unlike myself, your head is free of your anus."
You're right about that Canna Sylvan, I don't see things the way you do. It's not a "modern day filibuster" it is an insecure man spewing rabid patriotism because he is afraid of reality. That has nothing to do with anarchism or enlightenment or even with being a member of society, it is about the kool-aid. You either fucking drink it or you don't. You either swear it is amazing or you prefer water.
