Neither. I wish our GIs weren't over there dying to keep gas prices down. I think that's a shame and they are honorable and courageous men fighting a misguided war that never should have been started.Originally Posted by MsgMills
And it's a shame any time someone raises a whimper of protest they get the Old Glory smackdown seen in your quote. I won't speak for gurl, but I don't don't believe we do ourselves any good by glorifying war in the first place, and that's what these videos do.
And I'm not sure you want your logic pressed to its ultimate conclusion. If you want to advocate watching the video because it presents the reality of war, are you also ready to advocate posting videos of killed GIs having their bodies torn apart in the streets of Baghdad or Mosul? That's war too.
Let's be honest - the real reason people watch these types of videos is the same reason people watch porn - it's a guilty pleasure. Check out the emoticons in the original post. It's exciting to watch someone die.
Not for me, thanks.
