The military is the biggest CULT on earth! They recruit, then isolate you, break you down, then brainwash, then indoctrinate, then send you out to do their dirty work and have you do it for peanuts! How sick is that?
OMG THIS IS FUCKEN STUPID.!!!!!!!!!!! LOOK AT HIM.! LOOK AT WHERE HES LIVING.!!!! THERES MORE WAYS TO GO TO COLLEGE LIKE LEARN.!!! LOOK AT WHY YOU SHOULDN'T GO TO THE MILITARY.!!!!! THE MILITERY IS A LIE.!!! THEY ONLY WANT IDIOTS TO FIGHT FOR THEM.!!! IF YOU WANT TO JOIN JUST KILL YOUR SELF RIGHT NOW.!!!! (Don't.! I was kidding) Well if you want go. A lane in the freeway just opened up. but think of this. you are going to kill insistent people. What if that was your Dad Or Mom.!!!
Thanks dude, am eleven years old and I decided am going to join the airforce or the u.s military between witch one will support me for college. I might even serve for more than 4 years or 3 years, yes am afraid of my choice but that is where my heart is leading. When am atleast 18 I will join. :)
Joining the military may cost you your limbs, your mind, or even your life. There is no end in sight to the Iraq war. Many thousands were killed. Hundreds of these have had limbs amputated. Untold numbers suffer from post-traumatic stress disorder. Some soldiers will spend the rest of their lives unable to work. Don't trust the recruiter who tells you that you won't be sent to Iraq. They are getting so desperate that they are blatantly lying to potential recruits.
Joining the military means that you will be helping to carry out an evil, reckless, and interventionist U.S. foreign policy. Joining the military means that you will be expected to unconditionally follow orders. Joining the military means that you will be pressured to make a god out of the military. Joining the military means that you may be put into a position where you will have to kill or be killed.
Joining the military does not mean that you will be defending the country. The purpose of the U.S. military should be to defend the US yet one of the greatest myths ever invented is that the current US military somehow defends our freedoms. First of all, our freedoms are not in danger of being taken away by foreign countries; if they are taken away it will be by our own government. It is not a country making war on us that we need to fear, it is our government making war on the Bill of Rights.
@JAKECROCKETT7 joining the military isnt all about dieing i wanna be a seal and i cant even tell you how many times people have told me your goin to die
Thank You, I am 13 Years Old, And i really want to join the Marines. I know i am young to make this decision...i still have my whole life ahead of me...you have eased my worry about joining the military...When i turn 18 i am going to fly out to Parris Island, South Carolina...or look for a USMC Recruitment base in Arizona and personally sit down and join the military...That will be my birthday gift to me...To Serve my country...and to know i can choose my deployment makes me sleep easier on this
anyone that joins this absurd, tyrannical army of shitheads, is insane.. want a career and adventure? go fuck yourself.. want to defend your countrymen? stay the fuck home
@longfootbuddy listen son... sitting on your damn ass at the computer dissing the men who have saved your ass multiple times at war, isn't defending your country, in fact you are doing just a tad bit worse for it, instead of you working at that fucking burger king serving our country good by serving us fat food so we can be more lazy... i'll tell you if everyone were like you during WW11 our ass would fucking Japan or Germany right now.
@longfootbuddy i will will not let this "tyrant government" fall for i live under it, not fighting for your country because of the president who runs it is absurd, that's like saying you won't go to school because of the principle. I'm not brainwashed someones gotta do it and i feel the need to do it and save this "tyrant country"
@usmcburleson i didnt say anything about the fuckin president.. i said the goverment.. do what you want to fool.. if you cant see what this goverment is doing to the american people, nothing i can say will make you snap out of your blind stupor

How about comming home in a case, or having a PTSD for the rest of your life, how about you not being able to do any thing when you come back...

@videogamegirlsings Kid we dont take children in my beloved Corps, and they damn well dont in any other branch, not the Army, not the navy, not the National Gaurd, and most definitely not the Marine Corps. Get through Highschool get your Diploma and if your sorry ass cant do that then get a G.E.D. We look for the best and weed out the Weak. You probably dont even know what we do in the military either. Or what bootcamp is.
Now its not my job to deny you to join but i will give you advice if you need something to do with your life than the military is not for you. Find you OWN passion, if it is the military then join. Otherwise you'd give up on the tough life of a serviceman/woman. The military is a HUGE decision that will change you for life. For some joining is the worst decision of their lives, for others the best. Military isnt for everyone.
@videogamegirlsings And if you get the balls to try and join my beloved Corps be prepared! The Marine Corps are the toughest out of all the branches since we are put into the toughest situations.
Our armed forces are engaged in immoral and unlawful wars.
The pay & benefits by historic standard are in a terrible state, and do not even begin to compensate for the risk & damage to your life. There is NEVER any time on active duty on a hard serving enlistment, for them to send you to university even if they wanted to, which they don't.
A university B.A. is next to worthless, and is not going to get you a commission, those are for nepotism selections.
Shut up you liberal piece of shit. And don't give me the shit "OHHH I was in the military." Because I'm going to tell you the same shit that I told everyone else, don't join if you don't know what you're getting into.
And don't go off making your opinion everyone else's, you stupid hypocritical fuck.
@ObliviousCrow By 1943 standard in today’s dollars a PFC’s pay, foreign duty and combat bonus amounted to 2,943 dollars per month. Sergeant with sufficient time-in-service assuming sharpshooter, amounted to 4,185 dollars per month.
Hazardous Duty Incentive Pay for a paratrooper was 1,886 per month in today’s dollars. A PFC’s aircrew incentive pay was 940 dollars a month, and that was 1,320 dollars per month for a Sergeant.
Demobilization benefits were 686 dollars a WEEK for 52 weeks.
@ObliviousCrow 1945 Demobilization Benefits were today’s equivalent of 686 dollars a WEEK for 52 weeks to be supplanted by Room & Board for 1,430 dollars a month plus ALL university fees for the duration, to include a master’s program if so selected.
The amount of cost-of-living support was 50% more if a beneficiary had 1 or more dependents, to include a spouse and/or children.
I'm very disappointed with your argument for joining and counterarguments for not; they're all based on the fickle and selfish premise of "I don't wanna die". That is completely not what should deter you, quite the opposite - I would never join simply because i don't want to kill, especially for money or any material bribes they may offer. It would be funny if it wasn't so sickening how you can sit there and avoid this view, as if it never entered you mind.
layoff with the negative comments assholes. this guy devoted 5 years of his life to protect our country no matter what job he had in it. you should be thanking him for that and how he's talking to people now instead of being douchebags and talking shit online. thanks skyanimal
joining the military is a good idea.I mean sure you have the chance of dying but we can die anyday so thats not a real factor.Fighting for a reason you dont want to well thats something you have to overlook because just say your fighting for your family and friends...i am.Also great heathcare and education its a pretty sweet job if you make it that way
You fucking hippie losers who for some unknown reason troll videos concerning the military and bash this country's finest institution deserve to be curb stomped by a soldier.
The Fed gov NPRC has admitted and apoligized for losing my records but the VA denies my claims why, even after giving them letters from NPRC the fed gov. After waiting 6 years I am now waiting for the board of appeals why because the fed gov does not care if the fed gov lost your records. HE's right once you come back they dont care, i wrote the white house my state politicians, NOBODY CARES one because Im a women veteran. the best advice DO NOT serve, stay home like the rich eleite kids
I hate all these stupid hippy comments, if we didnt have to fight for freedom, we wouldnt, besides half you idiots play COD half the day anyways so shut up
I luv the military all I know is the miitary because I'm a military brat and doing jrotc and they have cool jobs like airbourne troopers and combat medics
if you join during a time of war and are to affriad of combat then you are a fucking pussy and shouldnt be joining. its the ppl like that that try to take more credit for being in the military than anyone else when all they do is push papers or work on some computer. and you say you will stay in shape most those fuckers who dont have combat jobs are fat as fuck and lazy as hell. usmc 0331
2:30 just defeated his own argument. Support of one's country NEVER lies in militarism; it lies in intercultural knowledge and understanding. You don't change a nation by killing it's people, you educate them and then they will hopefully take the humane side! But what humane acts has the military ever committed? The bad surely outweighs the good.
@cutthatcity "Strong bro logic."? That doesn't make any sense. You sure you're not 12 years old?
And if my logic is so weak, then why don't you at least try to refute one of my points? Instead you just rely on a puerile ad hominem attack. Pretty weak yourself, bro.
Unless you rather get shot at, end up homeless or have any more urges to kill yourself, rip up your shitty bullshit military contract now. The US government and military don't give a flying F about you. They have no problem sending you into an obvious suicide mission. You can get out now, and live, or you can keep on plugging away at it and play the Russian Roulette probabilities over and over, but eventually you're going to catch a bullet.
im 17 a senior went my local recruiter for a sit down we talked i took a practice asvab scored a 19 but i took an official asvab at school a few months before and scored a 36 i am currently working on memorizing the ranks, salors creed, general orders, and chain of command i not fat but not skinny either im around 5'9 195lbs 24% BMI no record no tats perfect health i do wear glasses yet he still seem a little unimpressed what is the best way to get him to give me contract and let me go to meps
I cannot think of one good reason to join the military, but I can think of lots not to join. You will be a corporate killing machine and you might get killed yourself.
don't because youare a tool that is abused and ied too. When you get out they will play nore games with you then itys worth be like the rich kids stay home and go to school
I think you should. I know many people who have good jobs and tell me that they regret not joining when they were younger. I guess their life really has no meaning.
@TheFrostyVision 15 of my friends from college are in the army and airforce. I can't stand not working right now, and the Army I have thought about from time to time over the years. I want to be a part of something bigger than myself.
@neomysterio Enjoy being an idiot. Takes a conspiracy theorist like you to think the government is doing anything that attroticous. Oh well, let me guess, you think we are fighting for money, oil, or some other ridiculous resources that we yet have? Or for "world domination" or some shit like that?
@neomysterio What documents? Oh you mean the really embarrasing/obvious one's that people really could guess easily? Yeah, I read a few of them. Those were mostly embarrasing, or atleast the ones I read were. and I read quite a few.
so i told my parents im joining the military after graduation and there completely against it i have always wanted to be able to repay my country for the freedoms i have and i think people dont understand i really feel that way but they think im just repeating things recruters say. thank you for sharing ur info. i also am doing for the benefits. i have no problems going to fight for my country. do you have any ideas on who would be a good person to bring to the recruiting office to help.
Two wrongs don't make a right. If you want to get your voice heard in the government, mainly because you think they are stupid, then you don't need to do the military service just to get their appreciation and attention. You don't rescue freedom in your country by becoming obedient to those taking your freedom away.
Why wouldn't you?!?!?!?! You get to kill people legaly! FTW!!!! Terrorists HATE our freedom they are jealous!! Join the army and teach them who's boss, Don't mind that wev'e been in the middle east for the 3000 that died on 9/11 for 10 years now, don't mind that every family over there has lost some one and don't think twice about the bombs being dropped on the Gaza strip. It's for freedom isn't it?! You give up your mother, your brother, your father, for FREEDOM! AMERICAAA! FUCK YEAHH!!
I'm enlisting for 3 years reserve 5 years IRR. I will probably deploy at least once though. I'm not scared of being deployed, but being away from my family is what is really going to be hard. But that is just the way it is.
Fuck that. After the Bush administration i lost all trust in the goverment. leavin this country as soon as possible, once we run out of oil its fucked.
Hey man, where did you go to basic at? I'm going to Fort Benning soon! Your experience sounds great tell me more about your specific job if you would.
As a Marine Corp Vet, I will say... If you really want to do this... please think alot about what your doing and RESEARCH AS MUCH AS YOU CAN BEFORE YOU DO! youtube com/watch?v=v46xu-j3XMA&feature=related Most Americans are waking up to the Zionist Control!
and the money for school thing is also a catch. what the miltary doesnt tell you is that in most cases you will not be going to school during your military career. My battle buddy join the army to get money for school and signed up for a program the army offers called college first. After he signed his contract and was under command of the army they finally told him he couldn't go to school that he needs to do a tour in iraq first. Its not just the Army that does it every branch.
why dont you tell them about the stop-loss program? the military is not something anyone should do. and I AM speaking from experience. to anyone thinking of enlisting search the video "Before You Enlist" (updated)" and watch the REAL facts of the military. also sky mentions that you can request duty stations. This is true, however the actually chances of getting the station you want is about 5%. The Army puts you where they want you. It is legalized slavery!
@skyanimal thanks man for making this video-finally time to see someone who encourages military and not a liberal hippie piece o' shit. again, thanks.
@lebronjamesXD no, I'm trying to support your statement, he was my friend, I just wish he didnt join the military. douche. Fans like you prove why Kobe is better
Our current president pulled us out.of the war on terrorism. I don't know but i'd be really made. knowing my friends hath died right in front of you for nothing. Just my opinion I don't know I have not been able to join the corps yet but i will time willing that is
cool vid, and I really enjoy the benefits the Army has to offer. I'm from brazil, so i def. didn't enlist to serve MY country, but yet to serve the country that I live in. The Benefits were def. one of my biggest interest. Everyone has their views in the military, and not everyone is made for it.
It's funny how those who have served in combat have a totally different opinion. They say fuck the military I'm not going back, whereas you say join just for the benefits. Those who want to join just for the benefits do not belong in the military. The Marine Corps never list any benefits, so if you want a challenge and to push yourself to it's limits than becoming a Marine is the way to go. You will deply at the President's call, and they won't be a stop-loss policy.
You make good points, but the idea that "everyone should enlist' is simply foolish. When someone thinks about a job one must first consider what one would be doing first then consider the benefits. It's not just about making it through BCT, I would agree that everyone can make it. But do you honestly think that everyone wants to be put in a position where they will have to kill someone? Does anyone need to experience those aspects? The military is not for anyone, not even close.
A Book that every soldier must Read (Addicted to War) and the film. I would recommend these documentaries Zeitgeist War Made Easy Iraq for Sale Why we fight Zeitgeist Addendum I'm an ex U.s. Army veteran myself and the Military is the last place to find a job. (Skyanimal) gives some great points but there is so much more that recruiters are not telling you. I've been there, and One last video i recommend "U.s. Soldiers are waking up"
There's a reason why you joined in the first place so don't judge on peoples decisions. If it's some video game obsessed 14 year old then feel free to slap the little shit around
Son let me tell you. i don't know about the army but in the marines, atleast force recon (scout sniper for me) you never knew what you were doing. you were given minimal intel and given an objective. I could be sitting by a fucking tree for 3 weeks to see what the enemy was doing, same spot the entire time. I could be on a special mission. If your thinking about joining the Armed forces join the Airforce. Best benifits and very few are even pilots. If your crazy extremely well built. Navy Seal.
i'll sooner go to canada for the rest of my life than serve in the military based on principal. i don't think that wars or violence solves anything. you may say: well, what about national security. well, the only reason we need that is because we seem to be very good at pissing off other countries. (especially those with "brown people" in it). :D
Give up your rights to make choices for yourself & you get to murder innocent people in other countries with state of the art technology against people throwing rocks to protect there families. Fucking Murderers. Dont confuse democracy with republicans you douchebag... Your taking the freedoms away from other countries.
i like what your are saying you get health and dental homing pay for food meal accounts payed for i like what your saying im in the military now during my bmt it is 80%mental and 20%physical you can do it all you just need to do is tell yourself you can do this and you can dont quit bmt pushes you to you limits and even more than your limits im curently enlisted
@nealort3 you get a little sheet of paper during basic u get 3 choices and u circle the choice u want. rarely ever going to get it unless u have a crappy MOS. if u get a big bonus an long AIT lengths be prepared for them to put you wherever they want and you wont get a choice. usually if you re-enlist they will give you a new bonus or your choice of duty station. but take the bonus, duty station could only be like 6 months then your out a bonus and they still send you where they want.
Hey sky,I really want to join,but my eyes aren't the best,what are the requirements for vision?I'm not blind or anything but stuff is out of focus without my extra two eyes haha.
We are part of a republic not a democracy.They make you take an oath to uphold and protect the constitution and then right afterward make you break that oath by sending you to iraq.
but i ju wanna knw y do recruiters lie??? i mean there are some ppl tht cant c themselves doin anything but bein in the military(im 1 of those guys) i knw what cud happen if i join but id rather get as much out of life by bein in the military instead of playin it safe i mean ur recruiter u have suppose to help u join but there really not there jus helpin themselves by gettin the points they need or wateva it is
yea ..how long would it take for me to make 95k ..what rank?

A university B.A. is next to worthless, and is not going to get you a commission, those are for nepotism selections.

@ObliviousCrow By 1943 standard in today’s dollars a PFC’s pay, foreign duty and combat bonus amounted to 2,943 dollars per month. Sergeant with sufficient time-in-service assuming sharpshooter, amounted to 4,185 dollars per month.
Hazardous Duty Incentive Pay for a paratrooper was 1,886 per month in today’s dollars. A PFC’s aircrew incentive pay was 940 dollars a month, and that was 1,320 dollars per month for a Sergeant.
Demobilization benefits were 686 dollars a WEEK for 52 weeks.
centurion180ad 6 months ago
@ObliviousCrow 1945 Demobilization Benefits were today’s equivalent of 686 dollars a WEEK for 52 weeks to be supplanted by Room & Board for 1,430 dollars a month plus ALL university fees for the duration, to include a master’s program if so selected.
The amount of cost-of-living support was 50% more if a beneficiary had 1 or more dependents, to include a spouse and/or children.

I'm very disappointed with your argument for joining and counterarguments for not; they're all based on the fickle and selfish premise of "I don't wanna die". That is completely not what should deter you, quite the opposite - I would never join simply because i don't want to kill, especially for money or any material bribes they may offer. It would be funny if it wasn't so sickening how you can sit there and avoid this view, as if it never entered you mind.

You don't change a nation by killing it's people, you educate them and then they will hopefully take the humane side! But what humane acts has the military ever committed? The bad surely outweighs the good.

Unless you rather get shot at, end up homeless or have any more urges to kill yourself, rip up your shitty bullshit military contract now.

After he signed his contract and was under command of the army they finally told him he couldn't go to school that he needs to do a tour in iraq first. Its not just the Army that does it every branch.

why dont you tell them about the stop-loss program? the military is not something anyone should do. and I AM speaking from experience. to anyone thinking of enlisting search the video "Before You Enlist" (updated)" and watch the REAL facts of the military. also sky mentions that you can request duty stations. This is true, however the actually chances of getting the station you want is about 5%. The Army puts you where they want you. It is legalized slavery!

It's funny how those who have served in combat have a totally different opinion. They say fuck the military I'm not going back, whereas you say join just for the benefits. Those who want to join just for the benefits do not belong in the military. The Marine Corps never list any benefits, so if you want a challenge and to push yourself to it's limits than becoming a Marine is the way to go. You will deply at the President's call, and they won't be a stop-loss policy.
triggerpuller101 1 year ago
You make good points, but the idea that "everyone should enlist' is simply foolish. When someone thinks about a job one must first consider what one would be doing first then consider the benefits. It's not just about making it through BCT, I would agree that everyone can make it. But do you honestly think that everyone wants to be put in a position where they will have to kill someone? Does anyone need to experience those aspects? The military is not for anyone, not even close.

3. Who will I really protect when I decide to join the Military? The war profiteers? The government?
