Yes, he is. Even though he posted here asking for opinions, if he sees that there are no other options to make his decisions besides that, he would ask other people's opinions nevertheless, even if it was frustrating doing so.

Hello, I was wondering if anyone could tell me what personnel get issued service weapons and in what circumstances/under what conditions. Personal curiosity. Not some trigger happy jtf2sniperwannabe.

Is it really that big of a deal that NHL teams wear a poppy on their jerseys? Sure, they should be allowed to in a perfect world, but it's between them and the legion to sort it out. It seems like a really trivial thing to bicker about.

I know a person who keeps telling me these things like, "If you say something bad about the military on facebook, they can go on and erase it, and i could be arrested." Granted, you can get in trouble if you post photos of yourself drinking and doing lines of coke in uniform, but from what I...

Rough, he shouldn't have tried that in the states, they are way more strict on that kind of thing. I wonder if the norm is to return him to Canada. EDIT: you'd think 2000 miles would have given him time to think about what he was getting into

Just wondering, I read an interesting article on the subject, and the cons of making it a policy were pretty weak. It seems to work well in Cuba, but I don't know much about that. It wouldn't be impossible to get out of it either, religion, disability, all the tests and such. Of course, I doubt...

Free speech isn't absolute my friend....... and nobody does anything because of the freedom of the speech I do not agree with a word you say but I will defend to the death your right to say it -Voltaire. On one hand, I can see where he's coming from if he doesn't support the war. He need...
