Then what is Veteran's Day for?And for dead soldiers, we have MEMORIAL DAY.
Anyway, another Memorial Day has passed, and my closest Yankee friends (thankfully) didn't rub it in my face (bless them).

Ok, so include soldiers in Labor day?Got it covered, jack.
Coal miners - LABOR DAY
Oil rig workers - LABOR DAY
Illegal immigrants who die in meat packing plant accidents - 4th JULY
Agricultural workers who die from pesticide poisoning - ARBOR DAY
Freight drivers who die on the road - LABOR DAY
Chinese workers in electronics factories who die from accident or suicide - COMPUTER DAY
Ogoni tribespeople who starve to death in the Niger delta because oil companies have poisoned their land - KWANZAA
And for dead soldiers, we have MEMORIAL DAY.
That is exactly how Rome worked. The parallel between Rome and America is fascinating.
I am trying to think of other empires in the course of human history that were so powerful that an argument could be made that war was obsolete (for them, at that time).
That is to say, throughout most of human history, no matter which tribe/country you belonged to, war was a way of life and it was necessary to cultivate a class of warriors to defend your territory.
I'm trying to think of other examples but none come to mind right now...

And the winner of the most naive comment this year goes to ... Tall_Building!
When you die performing your duty, you deserve to be called hero.
Not when you some fucking accountant killed on a car accident on the way to work. Not when you some fucking minners trapped in some coal mine somewhere. Not when your monitor falls on you and kills you when you fap to a thread on STS.
Look, I dont know what causes this much disdain toward soldiers, the fact is some professions could cost you your live when doing your jobs helping others. Soldiers, policeman, firefighters, nurses on the front line etc.

You make no sense.
for the record I am not against soldiers just unnecessary wars that puts their lives and my money at risk.
Lets try this then, there are jobs that puts you on the line of fire, or have a high mortality rate performing it, i.e high risk. Dieing or horribly disfigured are the norm rather than the exception. Some brave individuals still take the jobs even so, that however, does not automatically make them heroes.
Doing your duty does not mean you have to die, but if you die in the process of doing it, then you are a hero.
If you are an accountant/ ranchers/ deep sea fisherman/ lion tamer etc., dieing is the exception, no body anticipate to die while doing this kind of jobs. Sure, sometimes accident happen, but if you die on these kind of jobs, you are not a hero, you're just a tragic/freak coincident.
As for nickycakes, that's a bad example, he is immortal

Maybe the better questions before all of this was .......define hero
BWAHAHAHAHA!!!They aren't just fighting for their country, they're fighting to keep themselves and their friends alive.
Not even June and you are using the A/C already? I'm a real tough guy, windows open with a fan, like a man.
