Today in Sociology

So, I got stuck taking yet another sociology class. This time, I'm taking Intro to Social Problems. We were talking about values (societal, not personal) and how it is agreed upon that it is wrong to murder people. Next she starts saying that sometimes we (society) think it's okay to kill people. Then, suddenly the teacher makes a comment about the guys in uniform and says, "They're being trained to be killers." Gee, thanks. You know, you're right too. We aren't here to perpetuate freedom or to protect liberty or defend and uphold the Constitution or anything like that. Not a thank you for standing the midnight watch, willing to sacrifice our families and own lives for our nation. No, of course not. We're just mindless, heartless killers with no convictions. I'll just let some crazed-out Hajji run into your house with bombs strapped to his chest, then we'll talk about killing people in defense. Freakin' feminist.
