Would you care to explain your opinion?  I'd be interested to hear it.  Also, feel free to explain why you didn't have the balls to at least PM me to join this debate.

Have you ever eaten a tank bullet, Darrin? Ah, you don't have the balls for that now do you?
Whatever flag one would use doesn't matter, but I really would be offended if a Dutch flag would be used in such an avatar. As if I, as a Dutch citizen, should agree with people being blown to pieces.

Let me see, I'm a British citizen, living in America and have served in the British Army.  I served for 3 years with The Queens Own Hussars which was a type 57 Challenger tank regiment.  The tank in the picture is a Challenger tank (a Challenger 2 to be exact).

If you have a problem with my avitar then too bad.  I have no idea what your dumb "eating tank bullets" remark is about.  Tanks fire shells, but are also equipped with machine guns.  Of course, you have no idea about the military, no idea about world politics and never been to the Middle East.

Please feel free to post again and make yourself look like a bigger idiot.

Why haven't you been blown to pieces then? I mean, if you enjoy war so much you should like every aspect of it, no?
No, you get aroused of killing people, so much you have to rape women over there.  :pissed:  :pissed:  :pissed:  :pissed:  :pissed:  :pissed:  :pissed:

LOL.  You're so stupid it's probably not worth even chatting with you.

Come on, explain why I like killing.  Do you know any soldiers?  Obviously not, because then you know that no soldier enjoys war.  It's the media that likes a good war so they can feed the brainless masses some good old propaganda.  What would you know about killing people?  Obviously, you know as much about that as you do about orgasms and from your post it is plain to see that you associate sex with rape.  That's probably how you get your jollies.  I guess in your part of the world you could always hire a girl for sex, but then prostitudes are probably picky about who they sleep with too.

Now, don't hold back little man.  Tell me what you really feel about my avitar.

My avitar is to show my support for the troops in this world-wide war.  You can believe whatever you like because thankfully for you there are soldiers dieing to keep you free to keep thinking these things.

I just find it amazing that I've had this avitar for years and only now, when I enter a forum and make a post to thank I guy who was worried about us members living near New Orleans, do I get attacked for it.

No, that's a non-sequitor, because I clearly wrote that I associate war with rape. And that's quite factual, I can back up that statement with countless of facts.

I can read, but you're only telling me what you've been brainwashed into typing.  I'm wondering if you actually have any thoughts of your own.

YOU associate war with rape because some survey says that during war there are rapes.

Please show me your "quite factual" reports that show where I or any of the soldiers I have served with have raped someone?

Using your poor grasp of logic, rape also happens in peacetime by civilians.  So, using your argument, civilians must like to rape.

Nice try, but you're urinating into the wind with arguments like that.

Chapeau, mission accomplished, see propaganda at work, you THINK you die for freedom. But freedom can only be obtained when people understand the advantages.

Wait a minute!  I think I've read a bit deeper into what you're saying.  You associate war with rape because you were in a war and were gang raped by soldiers!  That's why!  Oh, it';s clear now.  Sorry about my misunderstanding.  No wonder you can't have a normal sexual relationship after that trauma.  Still, in time, I'm sure your backside will recover and you'll be able to stop taking the medication.
