So I just gotta wonder what it is you think the military is fighting for? I mean using your logic, they're legally obligated to do it, right? They're contractually obligated to serve, so they're just obeying the law, not serving according to you. And, by the way, who do you think pays the military for their legally obligated service? I do! Who do you think pays for their guns? Me. Who pays for their training? Me. It's a team effort dude: one to pay, one to do. "service" is about doing something to maintain, support, or protect your country. My tax money is maintenance thus I serve. Without me, there is no military service. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;207172674;29440083;f Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:290774 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5
