So after watching a video or two I’ve decided

Reserve your judgment until you meet the kids of today.
Bring back mandatory conscription!

@SnailTeeth The crazy part of what you said is the accuracy.

I’ll be honest I LOVE GORE and violence death and famine of all varieties!

However when I see CHILDREN effected by all the things I love it really makes me hate the things I once loved.

One of the greatest presidents of all time (Ronald Reagan) claimed that the draft has NEVER worked.
The Vietnam War was lost mostly due to stoned draftees, (as well as an incompetent Democrat Department of Defense.)

Thanks to KKKlinton's negligence and some ragheads hijacking planes and destroying the World Trade Center, the American military has PLENTY of patriotic volunteers for the armed forces.

I agree that the kids today need a good kick in the ass, and that THIS guy might just be the stern father they never had while growing up.

But if you ask ANY general, ANY officer whatsoever involved in combat training, they'll be the first to tell you that the military deserves BETTER than a bunch of lazy stupid conscripts.

@Reason10 didn't that guy get blown away by one of his own trainees...? 😄

@Richard65 It was an analogy for how the catharsis can be all-consuming.

@SnailTeeth maybe, but it's also an ironic metaphor. Hartman should have seen how Pyle was wholly unfit to become a soldier, but he was utterly determined to make him into a killer. He finally succeeded in his single-minded task, by creating a killer out of Pyle. Unfortunately, Hartman himself was Pyle's first kill.

@Richard65 Jesus was a carpenter who lived by the board and died by the board.

Exactly the analogy though... One must die within, before others die without.
