I believe there are millions of Americans that would strongly protest that. Among them the approximately 130,000 currently in Iraq and Afghanistan trudging the terrain in full body armor and combat loads, and triple that at least total that have pulled tours. Body loads, and triple that at least total that have pulled tours. Body armor alone in 50 pounds with both the front and back 7.62 ballistic plates, 120 rounds of 5.56 ammo about 20 pounds, M16 at 7 pounds, then add on about 15-25 pounds for MRE's and other gear. Now go about for a day or more with all that. Oh and lets not forget, people are trying to kill you the entire time. How many Mexican, Central or South American military personnel are in these areas? ZERO. So don't tell me Americans are lazy, looks to me like we are doing the jobs that no other country in the world wants to do. We send our money to save people, we send food, and most of all we send our children to defend and protect the same people that will gladly stab us in the back. We put up with being called racists, while saving Muslims in Croatia from genocide or helping out the very illegals that themselves kill us or have plans to take parts of our Nation. We are called warmongers for keeping the battles away from the American streets where the people that hate us live. We Americans protect a land that has not seen war on it's own soil in over 100 years. What other nation can say that?
