I thank you for engaging with me back in a discussion that is respecting each other and healthy. Thank you, and you are welcome. I honor and value this discussion we are having as it is peaceful.
I am listening is something I definitely want to bluntly state, again. My ears are open to both sides. As a critical thinker I need to make an informed choice by observing both sides while respecting both side's freedom of choice as long as it is non-violent that is the etiquette necessary to any topic.
I can respect your views in having that sentiment.
I do want to note that these service members in the military, the majority of them are minorities (or even generations of poverty filled Americans(white)) that knew poverty, were hard-working Americans in the civilian labor force (were McDonald's workers, Wal-Mart workers, Janitors), or earned their citizenship from another country (Puerto Rico, Mexico, so on) by passing their training to earn their title in whatever branch of service they chose.
All labor whether civilian from a janitor or (even the labor done from a recruit in the military) from a private in the military I respect their labor, because their labor comes with pain, and it is a struggle on both sides the way they are physically worked by capitalism in exchange to find a way to provide for themselves, and their family.
Military service-members do indeed acknowledge your hard-working janitor they know their roots they had parents that came from that or they themselves came from that position 'janitor' as well. They will defend their Americans without a doubt in a way that aligns to their ethics, morals, values, views.
I just lightly want to say, please don't disregard our service members in the military. There is far too much agony, pain, suffering, dismissive notes (even within their family: wife, child, husband, spouse) of misunderstanding when it comes to noticing them outside of their duty station which is why suicide rates are so high within the military community. Let the men who have served and serve not be a shadow we walk away from or do not listen to. Military and civilians need each other in union to defend our country not in division. We all have a heart and we all yearn to understand and clear misunderstanding within our community to strengthen the American spirit.
Good night! It is too late for me. Thank you for this discussion.
I wish upon you prosperity too and a long life.
