I got one question..How does an american soldier(s) flee the army without getting court martialed..That's gotta be against US Army Rules.
I am not against what he is saying, doing or his thoughts, Especially if he was ordered to open fire on innocent iraqi citizens..But just the fact that there is hundreds of soldiers planning to flee thier lives to canada kinda of shocked me.

I HIGHLY doubt that anyone was ordered to fire on innocent civiliians... I'm not saying they don't wanna tho, but theres too many cameras over there, so theres no way anyone would try and do it...
people are not joining the army to serve their country anymore, its not about honor and duty anymore, its about cash for college, no one expects to have to fight when they join, and thats why we are having problems like this...
and what happened during Vietnam was different, we had people going up to canada to avoid being drafted, which is a whole different story..
what we are tlaking about is enlisted men, men who CHOSE to join our armed forces....
but, ya know what, if he wants to stay up there, let him stay up there, I don't want to share a country with a man who could abandon his brothers like that
and that may sound harsh, but ya know what, hes hurting the guys who are over there the most, because someday they may find themselves in a bad situation, and they may not get out of it because this guy decided to flee to canada...
jesus I am getting mad thinking about this
support the war or vehemently oppose it, how do you leave your friends to face death alone? how the hell can anyone do that?
