    Free speech is the foundation of an open society. Each time a society bans a word or phrase it deems “offensive”, it chips away at that very foundation upon which it was built.

          For whatever it's worth: I spent a considerable amount of time in command in the Reserves. All too often, I had to sign off on an "other than honorable discharge" for folks who signed up for the benefits but then didn't want to meet the obligations warranting such benefits.

          I don't know what the ultimate consequences are of an "OTH" discharge, but I am more depressed by the waste of resources that resulted, first for the nation and then, wittingly or not, for the individuals who caused that to be imposed upon themselves.

            One thing to consider when signing up for the reserves. In my state, the National guard gets considerably more money for an in state college than Army, Air force, or Marine reserve. The state chips in for the National guard or even Air national guard but not the others.

            When you sign up for the reserves pay close attention to where you will train because if its 2 hours away, this gets old quick when you have to be there on a Saturday at 6am.

            I was disappointed in my Army Reserve experience but got out of it by joining the active duty Marines. Paris Island was an experience that really improved my perspective on life and I would highly recommend it to any one who is nearly as confused as I was but mentally able to handle it.

              That's the entire point of boot...to completely disorient you to see if you can adapt and handle it. Otherwise in a real combat scenario your basically fvcked!!!! They wish to weed those cruits out before hand.

              I would rather trust my bike to a "QUACK" that KNOWS how to fix it rather than a book worm that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix it.
