Veteran's Day


I believe that there are some serious problems with the murder charges during the war and that they need to be changed now. They are making our soldiers go to war in the most extreme possible conditions. And to make their lives even more difficult, they have to follow all these rules called the rules of engagement (ROE). These rules are very complex and they are changing all the time so it is very hard for the soldiers to keep up with them. If a soldier slightly disobeyed a rule, most of the times by accident, they would pretty much get the death penalty. This whole thing is stupid and very unfair. If you feel like you are being threatened, you should have a right to fire. But some of the rules don’t allow for it and if you do what you feel is right, you might get shot. These murder charges are complete nonsense.

I do believe that citizenship is a duty. If you are able, you should be required to have a job and to help this country. You should have to do volunteer work. Every time you see a veteran, you should thank them for their duty. Every time you wake up, you should say the Pledge of Allegiance to show support for our country. I believe you need to have a say in this county and you should have to vote if you are a citizen. If you disagree with the government, it is your duty to either agree or disagree and have a say in it.
