I make the high honor roll at school, so don't give me this sh** about summer school.
And, finally, what do you mean it's not my place to wake these people up? I'm just saying that I believe in the dignity of every human being, and if they don't think the same thing, then I don't know how they could stand serving their nation if they didn't feel who they were fighting for at home was worth defending.
Maybe they joined so that they could get into the airlines in the aftermath. Maybe not. The point is, stop acting like I should let ignorance go unnoticed just because I'm 17 years old. I have much more experience in life than many other people my age, and I frankly don't care if you think my opinion doesn't count. After all, an opinion is an opinion is an opinion. Nothing makes one's opinion count more than another's.
I don't think any 17 year old should speak to an adult like you are now. If you were here in person, I'd have my kids tell you to shut up, since they're all older than you, and I'm pretty sure that even my daughter could make you squirt tears.
Try talking to your parents like that jr. I'd keep the padded underpants on because, if you still got a daddy at home, his foot is going to be headed for your a$$.
If you were standing in a room with the guys you're trying to "wake up", you'd be begging them to tell you about their flying experiences and how you might someday end up like them. They certainly wouldn't be looking to you for help with their algebra homework, or give a crap about your wake-up call.
You wanna talk flying, I'm game. You want to continue this rant, you can join BLOW in invisible land.
