The difference is a piece of paper (a "letter of marque and reprisal"). Are you just now getting your head around the fact that the legitimization of violence is a function of government? Damn, don't you folks teach civics in school?

Prince Namor would like a word with you. . .

Yep. That's the job. Hell, if I could kill anybody I didn't like back when I was in harness, half the population of Oklahoma'd be dead. And a truckload of sergeants and officers.

Who's paying?

Only if you manage to train up a competent military. Officered by Brits.

Question. . . do you seriously think the military "kills anybody they want to?" If so, you're pretty comprehensively ignorant of the military.

That's not the job of a military (well, maybe Canada's "military"). The job is to kill whom you're told.

Now THOSE folks deserve hazardous-duty pay!

Hmm. . . Dominion of Canada Babysitting Force. . . I LIKE it!

'Twas ever thus. Beware nostalgia.

The military has firefighters. Well, ours does. Yours seems to consist entirely of grief counselors.

Yep. If it was Canadians, we'd have to arm our soldiers with sticks.

Go Riders! Go home, Redblacks!

^^^^^^^^ Brit teeth joke! :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO:

How 'bout you leave soldiering to folk that know what they're doing, and we'll leave firefighting to you.

No, it's a two-way street. But only one way is toll.

It does? How do you figure? If I say "God damn, this is a mess!" whilst saving the life of an accident victim, have I sinned? Am I now immoral?

The only person here calling it "only" is. . . you. Couldn't help yourself, couldja?

"It worked on us for thousands of years; now we can make it work FOR us."
