I know he was just being a troll, but here goes anyways...
You put a rather broad blanket over everyone here. To begin with, young has nothing to do with it. I am a young professional (30 years old), but I have already served as an officer in the US Marines, and I own multiple businesses of my own now that I am back in the civilian world.
No-one, not even trained soldiers such as myself, love war. Do you think I seriously WANT to see my friends and loved ones go off to war? Hell no. But, do I support them when I feel the need is great, or our freedoms are in peril? Hell yes.
I'd wager a months salary that I am a MORE informed American than you. I read no less than 10 different papers a day, and I follow hundreds of news sites weekly. (Left and Right-wing American news, plus multiple foreign news agencies. Ah the benefits of being multi-lingual.) This was all left over from my intel days, when we spent hours every day gathering information from our sources. I cannot live without my quest for knowledge, and I base my opinions on the facts available. I am by no means a puppet for anybody, nor was I during my service to this country.
The problem I have with people like you stems from your blatant overgeneralizations of an entire political belief. Now my question to you, have you ever served in the Military, or your country in any fashion? What have YOU done to deserve the very freedoms that you enjoy daily, besides [censored] when the real men take on the fight to protect your freedoms?
