When was I supposed to cry?
This was kinda boring
Baj
Yea, that's great LegoAaron. We're all impressed with how tough you are!! Gosh, I wish I was as hardcore as you.
If you've never been deployed, away from your family, you will never understand how special these reunions are.
Being 12 and living in your parent's house does NOT qualify you to share your opinion.

I honestly signed up for an account on this site JUST so I could thumbs down your post.
I completely agree with everything Baj said to you.
kelleythedude
Baj,
I have done 4 tours and videos like this always get me.
In regards to people loke LegoAaron, I dare you to be present during a reunion ceremony and still be a :hardcore baass".

Being a 17 year old AMERICAN with a job qualifies me to share my opinion. Even if I was 12 I would still be qualified enough to share my opinion but I understand that you're a soldier and you believe that nobody should stand up for anything unless a few thousand men stand up with you and chant a cult phrase (ie "hoorah")

Are you retarded? Because having a job doesn't qualify you for anything. My 12 year old sister has a job, does that make her opinion on war and politics valuable, or even remotely accurate? No. You aren't even out of high school yet at 17, and obviously have a very obscure, and wrong, opinion on what the military is and does. Without the military you wouldn't be able to live your life day to day without fear so you should really think before you speak.

Your 12 year old sister has a job? That's disgusting. Does she make knockoff Nikes in a factory or something.
I don't have a "obscure" or "wrong" opinion. I have a down to earth opinion.
Did you see the video of the Marine that threw a puppy off a cliff? I did
How about the pictures of them sexually abusing people in Guantanamo bay? I saw them.
Will I ever join the army? Hell no. Why not? Because I have a mind of my own and I don't support institutions that brain wash people into thinking sick-sadistic shit like that is right(religions included)
I understand that this may have been a tear jerking moment for people in the video but why would it make somebody else cry?
Oh yah. And me having a job means that I pay taxes to the American Government. I don't babysit my neighbors dog.
Ps: Justin Bieber sucks.
JB4times4
Or she got a job doing something she enjoys and getting paid great money for it. You really should quit stereotyping because you are just making yourself look like even more of an idiot.
Did you see the news story about the 17 year old kid who killed his entire family? how about the one about the 17 year old kid who raped his sister? Again, quit stereotyping. The army doesn't brain wash people into thinking that "sick-sadistic shit" is right.
Lastly, my name has nothing to do with Justin Bieber so again with the stereotyping, you look like a complete idiot at this point.
4. LegoAaronLego
How am I stereotyping your sister? That would be a stereotype if she was Asian but I could care less if she was.
You know the kids who have known they would be in the army since they were 5? Those are the same kids who kill people in high school and then join the military after they get out of juvi. I don't remember if it was Eric Harris or Dylan Klebold but the main reason he went through with 9/11 was because the airforce wanted him to be in the army and not flying planes.
Shit. You're talking to me like you're an adult and it sure doesn't seem like you are so get off your high horse and get back down here with civilization.
JB4times4
Just because someone under 16 got a job doesn't mean it's working in a Nike sweat shop, so implying that it does is stereotyping.
And there is no proof, or even evidence to say that because someone wants to be in the army they kill people in high school, I will agree that those people wanting to join the army for the purpose of killing is completely wrong however.
Lastly I am an adult, and I'm sure as hell not on a high horse but when you attack the people keeping your homeland safe I am definitely in disagreement of what you are saying.
LegoAaronLego
I'm glad that they give me the right to "attack" them.
I don't understand why you have a problem with what I'm saying. I have my 1st amendment and I can use it any way I want to and I want to tell people that this video evoked no emotion in me.
CarpetBagger
LegoAron, you absolutely have the right to express your opinions. However, your opinions are horrible. It's up to you, but might want to consider keeping them to yourself.
kelleythedude
So, Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold, who killed themselfs in 1999 were apart of the plot on 9/11?

Awesome video. I have something in my eyes, excuse me.

If this doesn't make you cry, you have no heart.
God Bless Our Soldiers And Their Families!

The little girl at 1:3o got me.
Four tours and the little kids reunion still gets to me.
