Is it hard to become a seabee? I heard they don't need seabees right now.

I wanna be a Construction Mechanic and i would like to know what exactly they do? Will i be fixing vehicles and will i be able to get a career as a vehicle mechanic in the civilian world for being a construction mechanic as a seabee?

I just wanna know if i'll be fixing vehicles??

Should i just go AF and be a vehicle mechanic, but even though they don't guarantee a job?

Hey, I'm from the US and it's stupid that many ppl from the US call themselves American and don't even think of all the other American countries...
I would be so pissed if I was from Mexico and I heard Americans say they're American as though I wasn't too..
Why don't we call ourselves Usanian? What's so hard about that?

Such as in Iraq, Afganistan, Israel, Palestine, etc. The war must be stopped because the meaning of life is to love, to live, and to serve.

USA invades other countries and makes a total mess (IRAQ), however they cant even sort their own country out. The New Orleans disaster, was a disgrace. The USA is not a superpower, more a country with a super ego.

We have starving children here.
we have unspeakable things here.
health care problems
rape and child molestation
dirty leaders
the cost of living seems to keep climbing but the pay for work stays the same so there is no balance. In va min. wage is still under 6.00 and you can't even rent a room for that much.
Our heads seem to be so turned up and focusing on everyone else that our security became low and all that for other influences to come into are country, create a life all along while hating it. Just to kill thousands.
It also seems the lack of communication and power of teachers influencing students are going low, but the sex crazed, be this way, got to have this, contradicting, you need me media has a stronger grasp. What is happening to us?

israelis are slaughtering palestinians now
one soldier is kidnapped (and it is reasonable because they want to exchange him with women and children POWs), then israelis brutally invaded palestine, kidnapped ministers and parliament members, killed civilians, destroyed the infrasructure of the poor-and-boycotted palestine,
which one is the terrorist? One (HAMAS) who fight for the freedom of their country, or the israeli who did this brutal action?
And there is no UN sanction, or even warning to this ruthless israeli
why is world so unfair

Seriously. We are spending 300 plus billion dollars on a war that many people feel isnt an urgent one. Money wasted after Katrina, a defense budget bigger than the rest of the world combined, even paying representives 13 times the federal minimum wage. If this country can affort such things, why cant if afford to help each african amercian rediscover their roots? Get money to invest in their futures?

Most people can say their ancestors were from "X" given country, but I cant because my ancestors were treated like animals, legally for the first 90 of the 230 years of this country. My last name comes from Europe, the last name of a slavemaster of my ancestors. Black people have gotten nothing. After 400 of tearing our families apart under the nose of the US. government.

Why are people so threatened by talk of reparations? Should we get it or not, why so hostile? Fear, anger? You think being black in America is so easy that we dont need it? Why?

This question was posted awhile ago. The lack of answers is a damning indictment of American hypocrisy.

Are those Americans who supported the IRA proud of their actions? Were they aware that the monies sent were used to build bombs that killed civillians? Did your opinion change after terrorist attacks in the US.

Before you answer - I know there were crimes committed by both sides in this conflict. The question is about a change of perception once your country becomes the victim.

Here's my opinion. If you finacially supported the IRA you should be extradited and prosecuted to the full extent of the law in the UK. A bit harsh you may think. Remember you did facilitate murder. This is a crime in your country too - you only have to look in your own backyard to see those detained on the same grounds - without a trial.

Terrorists are terrorists no matter what their religion, race or political ideology.

Your thoughts please.

Many a times road side trees planted and maintained by relevant authorities falls and caused damages to private property.
No claims against the damages to private property are entertained using the clause “ Act of God ”. The trees are planted and maintained by the authorities and are expert in this field as to its safety and hazard to the public. Using the term to avoid claim, is it fair or avoid responsibility?

Why can't all these politicians who are so quick to talk about the scarifice of ordinary men and women, send their own (politicians')children to fight in Iraq and Afghanistan? Do you think it is fair that only a few children of politicians fight in wars while a large majority of citizens are told to send their children or only child off to war?

In a lot of my questions Americans believe there country is the most generous when giving foreign aid. Well, you are wrong, You do give more than any other country , granted, however you are one of the smallest donaters of money in comparison with your countries wealth turnover, way behind UK, Germany, France, Japan and many more. So why do yanks insist they are some kind of world heros.
