By the way, tell a redneck bible thumper that deer are ritually unclean - so sayeth the good book...while you're in a treestand with him at 0-dark thirty. Talk about an adrenaline rush - fuckers got the gun in his hands...nobodies around.....and the look you get makes it clear that he is also keenly aware of this.
One the balance of the two things offered, I really don;t see any wisdom inherent in either proclamation. An eye for an eye would seem to be an appropriate military response, but perhaps not the best way to handle civil law, and loving thy neighbor is all fine and dandy...unless you lived next door to Pol Pot or somesuch...at which point, meh - you know?
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
