PBS NOW - Fighting the Army Part 3

[totoynani143]

The problem is not the Army as a whole but some lazy fuck people, i'm speaking from my own experience. U just need to talk or approach the right one, it took me 2 years b4 getting my PH and compensation,after one person really cared and did her job,it was approved w/in 3 weeks. I have the same 'Situation' Medically,honorable dis- prior to 2 year waiting.What has change in 3 weeks? a person like this lady.

@totoynani143 I B ELIEVE YOU THE ARMY HAS ALOT OF DUMB FUCKS IN LAZY PEOPLE IN IT WITH ATTITUDE PROBLEMS IT ALSO HAS ALOT OF REAL GOOD THINGS IN IT AS WELL BUT MOST OF THE GOOD THINGS LIKE COLLEGE AND BENEFITS REQUIRE WORK FROM YOU AS WELL AS SOMEONE WHO CARES ITS SAD BUT THOSE WHO ARE INTELLIGENT OR MEET PHYSICAL STANDARDS OFTEN DONT QUALIFY ITS LIKE THEY WANT STUPID PEOPLE

Don't let this video be an anti war video like the media wants it to be.

[Dakkatsu]

@boatstaylor it isnt an "anti watr" video dumbfuck. its a person experience throusands, upon thousands of War veterans are experiencing. u hear him, say he was recommended to be mediclly retired? BUT the Military ignored the recommendation. yet, they drilled him, and had a misconduct dischargfe. im sorry, but opur military if fucked up. PTSD, can make u do a lot of things. im grateful for everyonbe serving, but reprucussions are out of hand.

rea1001...it makes me sick that you disgusting unamerican liberal diseased human being have that mentallity towards our military. no there is no draft, but of it werent for guys like us volunteering there there would have to be a draft. unless ofcourse you propose our country having no military at all ?! we dont protect you..?? if the big bad wolf came knocking on your door you would panic and wonder where we are to safe your pathetic ass..we're saving you right now, not at at home,,,over there

@philly816 shut up kid.

[rea1001]

Its not hist fault? Last time I checked there is no draft. No one is forcing any of these People to war. The only People they are serving are the bankers, and the Military Industrial Complex. I getting tired of hearing the propaganda that they somehow are fighting for us, and protecting us. Bullshit! This War has been proven to be a lie, a fabrication. Unconstitutional and illegal. STOP using the American Citizens to defend your own actions. We are not the scapegoats of the Government.

[CaletheGray]

This is so sick. People are the only monsters that ever did exist, and I'm afraid we have quite a number of monsters in power. Poor guy isn't even allowed to be human, to have sympathy on another life and experience emotion. We put waaaaaay too much pressure on the guys in society. Needs to stop!

[jmack619]

our kids fight and kill and die for democracy?? and we can't get it at home ??

[peacerebelgirl]

i wish more young men and women would watch this and not become soldiers. They'll never be the same once they enter.

[actionheat]

amen to that, i second the emotion...i myself am a Iraq vet (2007-2008) and im so different its not funny....thank God I'm out....

[RoonGang09]

@peacerebelgirl Disagree to that, I served in the Navy and was stupid enough to get discharged and not for the things this unfortunate soldier had to go through. The military is a good thing, but war is never a good thing.

[RoonGang09]

Dont blame everything on the military either, they're just following orders. Blame the politicians we have in power.

[leysin]

@RoonGang09

What politicians are you refering to? The military is mostly a self contain system with little or no oversight. Congress has athority over them, but they always let the commanders self regulate. Only when the shit hits the fan is when congress will intervene and start asking questions.

[filmolosophy]

@leysin lol the main commander of the army is the president of th united states. he is the commander in chief which means the commander of all armed forces. congress decided to get involved in this war, our x-pres gave the orders to the military forces. once the order is given by the comander in chief, the command trickles down through the commanders to the smallest grunt in the armed forces.

[boatstaylor]

@peacerebelgirl Do you believe that we should have a military? What is your point in your stupid statement?
