Title: Are foreign born U.S. soldiers always insane?
Post by: Syt on May 31, 2009, 12:19:36 AM
We have a number of servicemen on this board. Most of them are pretty normal - Alci, funkmonk, Tonitrus etc. (besides the inevitable geek streak).

Two stand out, though: Hansmeister, born in Germany; Siegebreaker, from Israel.

Is this just coincidence or are foreign born service members much more likely to develop mental conditions?

Hansmeister was born in the US I believe.  He was raised in Germany though.

I think it's a case of the more meaty posts one makes, the more his underlying insanity is revealed. Those purportedly normal posters you listed tend to keep a low profile.

And you all know it is bullshit.

I am a law abiding citizen.
The blood I spill these days, belongs to America's enemies. Very bad people, as bad as people can be.
I am an ideoligcally motivated soldier. I believe in what we fight for, I believe in what America stands for.
So go and blame your failure to stand up to my standards on somebody else.
It is not my fault you can't make the cut.

Not as insane as a system where DADT is considered a swell idea.

"What America stands for?" You bitch about gay marriage because there's no legal reason to deny it in a country that was supposed to be free of your theological squabbles. In fact, a lot of your bigotry is against "what America stands for." Military philosophy != the "American Dream."

Besides, Siege is insane because he's spying for China.

It was a quick example. I'm just sick of Siege talking like the rest of the US should behave exactly like ex-pat Israeli Jew soldiers.

Typical faggot-speak.  Anybody who opposes faggotry must secretly be a faggot themselves.

I hope you get stabbed and then eaten by lions.  Gay lions who fuck you in the stab wounds while they eat you.

Less "opposes faggotry" than tries to project their own sick BDSM gay fantasies on others. That's quite an imagination you've got, Neil.

Just so long as you die from it.

Yes, I know that.  But I protest his claim that my desire for him to be brutally murdered is sexual in nature.

Either they want to be more Americans than Americans, thus they are ready to go at more extreme measures because they want to prove that they are good Americans, or we have a very, very poor anectodal sample of two.  :blush:

I go with the latter.
