I think your right Marc, I couldn’t remember that middle part. :-o
Military Corruption

Depleated uranium is not most nuclear waste. Have you ever taken a gieger counter to it? almost completely inert.
-
Is it just really compact and good for bullets?

Depleated uranium is really dense, quite a bit more dense than lead. The more dense the high velocity projectile the harder it is to stop, and the more penetrating power it will have. That’s part of the reason A-10s busted through Iraqi tank colums like no other in the Persian Gulf.
-
By arguing how dangerous Uranium is, you’re just circling the issue. The military needs reform. 30% of women raped is f-cking screwd up!
-
I agree, no more women in the military, problem solved.
-
30%!!! Where can i see this statistic?
-
Dezert, I gota disagree with you. We live in an equal country, men and women should be equal in the Military. Personally, I think Women should be drafted alongside men.
Maybe instead of punishing the Women for these rapes, why not crack down on the Men?
-
I have no problem with women in the military, as long as the standards arent lowered just to have them “in” the military

Exactly what I have been saying.

I don’t like the military at all. Although I must admit they have done some good things, how can someone say they are going to save lives and end up taking them. But since the topic of this forum is what you think about the military, I will digress. As long as you are human, you should be allowed in basic training. Women, Men, Homosexuals; they can all do something for our country. If they cannot do something then they don’t belong in the military. No one is free when others are being oppressed; even in their own homes.
-
Again, all kinds are already let in to the military. What I am saying is that how they are treated once they are in there needs to be reformed.
-
That’s what I meant to comment on instead of what came out. The women and homosexuals are treated differently. Once again, sorry.
-
I’m with the equality angle. When I was in the Navy, women could not serve on combatants, only auxiliaries and supports. Add the draft, all commands, and then you’ve got something…

It comes from the VA. 90% of recent women veterans reported sexual harrassment. 1/3 reported rape.

I disagree with you except on 2 parts.
A) US Military is way too big.
B) Gay’s are discriminated against
So you believe that the military is enviormentally responsible. And that minorities and women are treated equally?
-
I believe minorities are treated equally. The Military needs to clamp down on these rapes and sexual harrasment I am hearing about.

Agreed on the latter that the rapes and sexual harrasment need to stop.

Minorities mistreated? What proof do you have?
