If you don't want something potentially blasted out to every other human on the planet, DO NOT PUT IT UP ON THE INTERNET!

PERIOD!

If you want to call this "victim blaming", fine.

I don't use various web services to take/store private pictures of myself.
Therefore, I do not have naked photos of myself strewn across the web after the inevitable account compromise.

Anyone trusting an Internet service to keep things "private" for them is a fucking moron.

This kinda sounds like what you're looking for.

You can't?

EVERYONE wishes they could choose a career that would go out of its way to manufacture a choice and cushy position for them on-demand.

Reality is, if you choose to go into a field with a glut of participants, jobs are going to be lower paying and few and far between and it becomes a race to the bottom.

Do like everyone else does when trying to break into a particular career. Get a job.

If he's telling the truth and wasn't name-dropping, then Comcast has some explaining to do. To a judge and jury.

Granted, they have deep enough pockets to tie it up for years. But...

If this person is telling the truth, and they had NOT been name-dropping, he's got a hell of a lawsuit on his hands.

Granted, Comcast can tie it up in the courts for years...

Look at the specifications for modern POSIX compliance and then ask that again.

But is this the fault of the millions of enlisted and commissioned service men and women?

Does it warrant labeling them, en masse, as murderers?

"Ignorant little leech on the ass of my country?"

Yeah. That's pretty much what I'd call someone who bitches about things but doesn't even have any ideas about what to do to actually make things "better". Let alone the will to try and be participatory so they can implement such things.

"Actually, it is not your country."

Actually yeah it is. Not in the possessive sense as in "I own this". My as in "I choose to associate myself with this".

And by serving the country I HAVE had a hand in granting (and protecting) people's rights. Maybe not on a firsthand basis, by my service, and the service of the millions of men and women over the last 200+ years have made it possible to claim "your" rights AS "YOUR" RIGHTS.

Please, TRY to tell me I'm wrong.

"FUCK OFF. That is what totalitarian countries do. Free people have no reason to serve you or "your" country. They can choose to, or they can freely chose not to. They are free to leave. They are free to stay."

And they're free to bitch. Something the service of millions has guaranteed. But, I'm also free to tell useless morons like this to, in your words "Fuck off".

But they're essentially bitching with no real audience. Because they do have any sense of responsibility. And think that this country OWES them in some way and should just spontaneously DO SOMETHING about their unconstructive criticisms. Instead of being constructive and trying to change the world FOR THE BETTER, THEMSELVES.

"They have no obligation to "serve" you."

I never said "serve me".

I said DO something instead of just bitching uselessly. Constructive criticism.

"Nor does anyone owe you a living, you leech"

Uh. I think your reading comprehension is flawed. Nowhere did I ever say anyone OWED me a living.

"Why do you hate the United States of America so much, you would lower "your" country to communism and totalitarianism?"

Okay, now I *KNOW* your reading comprehension is flawed. This has nothing to do with communism or totalitarianism. The fact that you THINK (and I'm using the term loosely) it does, shows just how far off-base you are. I suggested that some whiny little jackass actually stop bitching about the world being a shitty place and actually DO something with their life to MAKE IT BETTER.

"Whatever, but you are in the wrong place for that dude."

If you think I'm writing from Outer Bumfuckistan, yeah. You might be right.

But I'm writing this from the United States.

You don't like what I have to say? TOUGH!
You don't like my ideology? TOUGH!
You want respect? To NOT be talked down to like the know-nothing piece of crap you are? EARN IT!
You want the world to be a better place? WORK FOR IT!
Don't like the fact that you might have to get your hands dirty to make the world a better place? TOUGH!

"The USA intentionally bombed France during WWII"

And what were the targets? Were they AIMING for hospitals? Were they TRYING to hit schools?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strategic_bombing_during_World_War_II#Bombing_in_France

Precision bombing. Not carpet bombing.

No, they weren't very precise. And there were still occasional carpet-bombing runs. And yes, civilians were still killed as collateral damage. But there was no intent to go out and simply slaughter civilians.

All you're doing with your slanted arguments is proving just how little you actually know/understand.

So "murder" is whatever the hell you feel like defining as murder?

Uh. No. That don't fly.

If we wanted to be "the most effective killing machine"?

We wouldn't be dropping high explosives.
We'd be dropping nukes.
Not chucking salvoes from the Arleigh Burke.
We SURE as hell wouldn't be putting boots on the ground!

Again, the military objective is to limit use of force to military targets and avoid civilian casualties/targets.

Did I or did I not directly or indirectly end lives?

Nope.

I was a medic. And I was lucky enough to have never killed anyone. Or even wounded anyone.

And killing armed and actively hostile enemy combatants in a war IS NOT murder! If you don't understand the difference, you don't know what you're talking about.

Sorry, but when I was a soldier, if someone was trying to kill me, it was my job to stop them from doing so. Unfortunately, in times of war, the final tool for doing this is the Patton Solution (Make the other dumb bastard die for HIS country).

If that makes people abroad, or at home, hate me and my fellow soldiers, that's THEIR problem. If they're so damn opposed to war, they needed to work harder to keep us from becoming embroiled in one. But it's always easier to bitch about how bad the country/world is. Actually FIXING the world is MUCH more difficult. Made more-so by intolerant blowhards who think that a choice of career in the military means someone is automatically a psychopath.

And then there's mental defectives such as yourself who can't determine the difference between simple frustration and homicidal rage and automatically assume the latter due to the fact that I've had training with pistols, rifles, grenades, squad weaponry and anti-armor weaponry. People who are so oblivious they can't even comprehend simple things, such as my personal choice NOT to own weapons now that I'm a civilian.

You're thinking "rank", which is Private, Private First Class, Corporal, Sergeant (all enlisted) Lieutenant, Major, Colonel (all commissioned)).

An MOS is your actual occupational specialty.

Here's a list of MOS'es.

Things like medic, truck driver, engineer, mechanic, pilot, etc, etc.
