Get a teen into a room with some mangled bodies from the latest car crash. When you buy spoons we could view some bloated corpses, heart disease and all. Let's start a petition, you and I?
Course, I don't think it would be very difficult for people to meet this requirement...and I'm not sure what it's supposed to do or why it would matter....but if it means we get to put more regulations on the books and ignore the fact that our gun problem has to do with our failure to enforce -existing regulations-, I'm all for it! What could go wrong?
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!
