It takes a village to raise a child.

The demise of this country''''s youth, look at the kids on pills, shooting each other, committing suicide. People know I''''m right so they come out with their weird "go back to your cave" comments. You all wish you could stay home and take care of your kids, or maybe you don''''t. Why did you even bother to have them then?

Hillary Clinton did the women of America no favor when she "choked up" and got weepy on the campaign trail the other day.

It played to outdated stereotypes.

Without trying to sound sexist, I really do not think the military is a good career choice for females. The military is rough, at times brutal, very much a mans world.

Not sure why a woman would want to join the Marine Corps. You''ll never get the same respect that the men do. Women don''t get involved in combat. USMC is all about combat. What''s the point?

Women belong at home taking care of their children, period. Ever since that changed, no one is home to take care of them anymore and they turn out to be murderers who kill their pregnant girlfriends because they had no proper upbringing.

THIS is why women don''t get the (EARNED) respect they deserve. These obtuse attitudes that women "can''t" or women "shouldn''t" are wavering squeals from men who project these cave man mentalities, and obviously have little real self respect, and a lot more intimidation or ego issues. They are worried that a woman just might show them up. Which, I can tell you truly, they do on a regular basis in ALL branches of the service these days! Women are fighting on the ground, flying jets, commanding ships, and DYING for this country.

A large part of America once lived that "Waltons / Father Knows Best" experience.

We won"t be going back to that America. Liberated women will never allow that clock to be turned back.

Lets make the best of the real world we live in.

"A 20-year-old pregnant Marine who was expected to testify about something she witnessed on base has been missing since mid-December, authorities said."

Someone may have wanted to shut her up before her testimony.

I"m sure that"s the focus of the investigation.

("Documents attached to a search warrant in the case cite the Marine"s mother as saying Lauterbach had been the victim of a sexual assault by a superior officer." - CNN)

SSCT1- "Don''t lump all Marines into one group."

No, you got me there. Sometimes, I''ll admit, I get a little angry and start with the stereotyping. Some trees have more bad apples than others though, and the military, without a doubt, is one of them.

The rest of your statement however, does a lot to support my rant. You don''t know me from a hole in the wall. To place a bet without knowing your odds would get me to thinking, you ain''t the sharpest tack in the box.

"Millionaire kids"?? $$$ does not equal intelligence, ethics, and most certainly doesn''t mean they don''t feel they''re above the law or can''t get away with it.

MyOpinion1, just because you are entitled to your opinion, doesn''t mean you shouldn''t use some discretion in letting the world know how stupid you are!

Oh sure, American should be just like some Muslim countries, and keep their women indoors, cooking & doing housework! Let''s not let them attend college either, lest they get their hopes up that they might actually accomplish something!

MyOpinion1, you are an IDIOT, and now everyone who reads this forum knows it!
