X-Men: First Class Sponsored By The Army!

They need to get a grip of themselves.

amen to logunvadercap. military service isn't for everyone, but you can all feel free to thank a veteran next time you see them.

ha...weak minded?

Are they sponsoring Cap?

I'm pretty sure first person shooter and strategy games like Call of Duty or Command and Conquer bring more young kids into the military then an X-Men movie tie in ad campaign. But what do I know? I only took young Soldiers to Iraq 4 times. It’s funny to me when I watch a young ADULT show up expecting to just wear the uniform and be awesome at Soldiering because they played military themed video games and then they realize how physically and mentally fit you have to be. It takes a lot of discipline and drive to consistently perform at the top warrior athlete level…and the weak ones just weeded out eventually. Any of you pissing and moaning this and that about government and the military should get in the game. Run for office or join up, if you can. Sideline fans always like to talk about what they would do or give an opinion on things going on but they’re not in the game, they are just spectators who don’t have what it takes.

@ Nephillim we have Doctors and Medics and Nurses all over the military, what are you waiting for? Oh thats right, a backbone...coward.

@ LordHuck Good luck with that, I’m sure stellar logic like that will do wonders for social order. I think we should vote to modify who gets to be citizens and only those who serve time in either civil services such as police, or fire or the military get to vote and run for office. Then whiney crybabies such as yourself, who only care about money and self interest, and not people, will either change or fall out of relevancy.

@ hbombr To answer your question, if I was given an order that violated my morality or undermined my worldview or value system, I would not blindly follow it. Once common vernacular term used is “choosing to fall on your sword” which basically means if I felt something was wrong, I wouldn’t do it. No I wouldn’t round up Arabs or Muslims if they were American citizens and put them into camps. However, let’s say I was sent into an area to restore social order because a bunch of lazy, rebellious, lawless, drug addicted punks were destroying private or public property. If after they were told to leave they started to riot, I would have no problem using an escalation of force. If my “countrymen” persisted in illegal, threatening or destructive behavior and I had to negate the threat, I would.
Fact: throughout our nation's history there are situations where deadly force was unwarranted or unjustified and the U.S. Military was used for nefarious purposes. There are always people with power and influence throughout the world that seek to institute fascism, or attack minorities or weaker members of the society. This is something that has happened throughout the world’s history, not just our country’s history. Don’t feign intellectual enlightenment and condescend do me with a false sense of righteousness with nothing more than a rebellious mantra. I never think in boxes, I put my enemies in them and your attempt to insult me is lackluster at best. You have absolutely no clue what you are talking about. Get an education and learn how to write and spell first. Then learn how to logically postulate ideas. After you figure out how to make and validate claims then try to debate with someone and maybe, just maybe, you will have a point. Don’t just read, go out and explore the world. I love my country and we are spoiled, but it’s because people like you don't sacrifice anything and hide behind your selfishness pretending to be moral when you're really a coward. Some truths are relative and some are absolute. Brave men go to war while the cowards stay home. Go to a war torn country just as an aid worker and see what you say about the American military after you hide behind them when the real enemy comes.
