I was the all American kid, that is what we do! I was a boyscout, dad was a cop, I was in civil air patrol. I was going to go fight the "bad guys" so we would be free to worship J E S U S. haha. Trust me, if someone told me I would be a maga liberal at 17 when I joined up I would have never believed it. I joined on my 17th birthday. Republicans were gods people on earth to me back then. Oh you would have been hard pressed to find a more gung ho candidate.

Well, I joined. Went ok for awhile and I learned it was all a big bunch of BS. Soldiers were fat, did drugs, stayed drunk. This wasn't even during war time. I was wanting to be Captian America himself, but I was living and working with the poor dregs of society that could not get hired at McDonalds. I did details out at School of the America's, back when it was called that. The official story was that it was to fight the drug war. Ok, "hoo ahh" I thought. I was mainly helping with training weapons, recon, opfor etc. I learned later to my shock that we were training death squads to go back to South America to kill people not friendly to the US. Professionals, intellectuals, artist, labor organizers. You know the story. The US denies this of course. They trained Norieaga and he was a CIA agent but Panama got invaded when he stopped taking orders from Washington. Well, I know one thing. The official story is ALWAYS BS. From the Gulf of Tonkin, to Iraq. It's all lies. The agenda is laid out far in advance of the catalyst. This time the trade towers. I had a demo permit, I don't believe the 9-11 official story. Fire can't make building fall like that, only demo can. It's science. That could have been the terrorists, sure, but there is no way jet fuel alone did that. You have to have a half pound of C4 just to blow up some lousy concertina wire. Yeah I'm a 9-11 truther, I await the slamming from all the armchair commandoes.

You learn a lot, you make friends with cooks and green berets, SEALs and mechanics. You piece the puzzle together over time. The war on drugs was called the "war on the competition". America deal in the drug trade? Oh not my America! I was naive as it gets. I got a real rude awakening. So to make a long story short, I am living the good life in liberal land, and I go toe to toe with people who think our wars and military post WW2 have been doing anything righteous.

Oh yeah the BCD, I got bored, low morale, started screwing off and not caring, got into trouble. Nothing major, got booted. They said my "life was over" with a BCD, I laughed in their face. No one on the outside gives a crap. Well I can't be a cop, but big deal.

It was NOT the experience I would have ever dreamed. It was however a really good experience because it opened my eyes bigtime.
