    Poor bastard. At 20, mental capacity is nowhere near its peak, and how bad must your life be if you are willing to throw it away for some obese self-tanning cream using orange dipshit? This is what happens when mental illnesses aren’t taken serious, and treatment is not easily available.

        I think you misunderstood. I wasn’t saying I don’t see how people could have mental problems in this world. That was a rhetorical question, observing that the poor bastard was obviously very broken / brainwashed / ill / whatever.

      You’ve managed to identify the highly effective, yet morally reprehensible strategy for military recruitment. Get young men when they are at peak testosterone, but have limited pre-frontal cortex development.

      Don’t speak about patriotic heroes like that.

      Do you call everyone who fought in 4th of july a bastard and mental too? Your ancestors who gave you the freedom you have right now? He did what most of us don’t have the balls to do. That is not sickness, it’s bravery.

      People should really drop the whole “violence scawy” bullshit already, this is why a lot of innocent people are dying in really dumb ways nowadays, like for being gay or being black and nothing else

            Ok, just checking that it was indeed you not having any idea what you are talking about. The 4th was neither a peak of the war or a culmination of said war. Also, your phrasing of “…who fought in the 4th of July” is just ridiculous and not how anyone would say that. You would say “…who fought in the Revolutionary War”. Your point would still be absurd and wrong, but it would at least sound like a human wrote it.
