If i join the military, yes. But as a civilian.... not quite. I love my country, and I would die defending it. But I wouldnt just die for any random interest . I think my loyaly is more to the ones i love and my ideals. Foir the most part, America fits these pretty well. I can say that I would die defending the innocent fron evil if needs be. You can expect the same defence from me if you are endangered. And anyone trying to pull any crap on a plane that I am riding will have to kill me first.

Who is my country and what have they done for me? Gone are the days of 1 country united in the better cause for good. Now we are a country united by whoever has the most money and can keep us enjoying lower prices and cheaper taxes...
I serve America, meaning the people and the dream for freedom. Not one person and their interests in becoming more internationally wealthy.

EVERYBODY SAYS THE SAME THING! DIE FOR MY COUTNRY, FREEDOM, DEMOCRACY, BLAH BLAH BLAH. HEY WE ALL KNOW WE' RE TALKING ABOUT IRAQ HERE...DID IRAQ INVADE THE UNITED STATES. NO. WE ARE THE ONES INVADING IRAQ!!! IM NOT GOING TO GO INTO DETAILS AND STUFF, BUT I HATE THOE MOTHAFVCKERS WHO MAKE EXCUSES ABOUT THIS WAR BY SAYING THAT THEY ARE PROTECTING FREEDOM, CAPITALISM, AND ALL THAT GOOD STUFF. YES, ITS GOOD. BUT THE TERRORISTS DONT GIVE A SH!T ABOUT HOW WE LIVE...I MEAN I WOULD MIND IF SOMEONE HERE HAD SOME SENSE AND SAID "YES, I WOULD DIE IF THERE WERE IRAQI SOLDIERS PATROLLING THE US WITH MACHINE GUNS AND TANKS." HELL, I WOULD DO THE SAME. BUT THIS VERY MOMENT, AS I WRITE THIS, THERE ARE AMERICAN SOLDIERS, CLAIMING THEY FIGHT, KILL AND DIE FOR PRESIDENT BUSH (THE DUMBEST A$$ THAT EVER LIVED ON THIS EARTH WHEN IT CAME TO FOREIGN AFFAIRS) WHILE THERE ARE CHILDREN THERE THAT HAVE NOTHING TO EAT, WHO SAW THEIR DADS DIE, AND MOTHERS KILLED. AND WE ACT AS THOUGH IT HAS EVERYTHING TO DO WITH US...BE A LITTLE LESS SELFISH. BUSH LIED BECAUSE HE WANTED OIL, THEN HE STARTS ACCUSING CHINA OF ONLY HELPING AFRICA BECAUSE OF ITS OIL. WELL AT LEAST CHINAS GETTING OIL BY HELPING, AND NOT BY WAR.
"IF WE'RE FOR PEACE, THEN WHY IS THERE WAR?"

If I was in the armed forces, then yes. But if some terrorists told me to light an american flag on fire, or else i would die, then im lighting up that flag in a heart beat.

No. If someone invades and my family is in immediate danger.... then yes. I'm not going to get shot by in Iraq over oil. Nobody is threatening our freedom anymore. We are one of the most powerful countrys in the world. We are in no danger of being taken over.

Hell no. My taxes don't even go towards fixing the pot holes on my road. Why would I want to die. When I can decide where my taxes go ask this question again.

I am willing to die for my freedom and my family's lives. I have already fought for my life, and yours.
