Dear US Military, the Catholic Church called, they want their sick irony back.

Most underreported story in the country right now.

500 sexual assaults per week, with a guideline that tells women being raped to submit, probably written by the same dude who is raping women.

hey lady dont turn this rape into a murder

[Kagatob]

I've been following this, it's not just women being raped bro. They are currently suspecting it's an equal to greater amount of men that are also being sexually assaulted.

The month sexual harrassment "death by powerpoint" meeting we had said men were equally assaulted as women.



Combat Medic for a week in basic training, attended a meeting before having to leave due to prior concussions.

[purist__]

Also, I'd like to add that Harrison had a medical discharge due to the fact that he has had far too many concussions in his lifetime, and suffered from Acid Reflux disease. He would have needed to get 3 or 4 different types of waivers to get passed MEPS.

concussions (read: gangs of heroic black men clubbing you to near-death for being racist)

acid reflux (read: diet consisting solely of nacho bell grandes)

'MURICA! The mainstream media won't tell you anything bad about the military, but will make you terrified to leave your own home.

Yeah, because reporting on the dozens of soldiers killed everyday in Afghanistan is great news people want to hear about. Nor does reporting about the failed efforts of paramilitary who risk their lives every day landing in IED ridden hot zones to aid both LN and US troops and the fact that they are NOT allowed to save an injured child because the wound was not caused by the opposition forces.

Yeah, fuck the mainstream media, people need to know the real truth about the military!

and the fact that they are NOT allowed to save an injured child because the wound was not caused by the opposition forces.

I have not heard this before, so your saying that if theres a gunfight between us troops and opposing forces and a child gets hit in the crossfire by a us bullet, NONE of the us troops there are allowed to help this child? they have to watch it die...

Green fire would qualify obviously, otherwise it's up to the local hospitals to rescue. Kid gets hurt by playing with left behind munitions, nope.

Oh I forgot to add more bad stuff about the military like how paramedics sometimes fail to setup IVs for blood transfusions while airlifting and have to do an IO instead but they can't adminster ketamine because the patient lost too much blood. Those bastards just want to make everyone hurt!

I can see the point then...if a child is crying and looks injured, bunch of soldiers come to his aid and boom its a trap, shit happens.

but personally i think id take that risk for a harmed child, american or not.
