One of chuckles48's friends was asking about rights.
Specifically, who believed the rights of United States Citizens were won, and preserved, by our armed forces.
Specifically:
Who here thinks that (American) soldiers who "risk life and limb" and sometimes make "the ultimate sacrifice" make you freer and/or safer by doing so?
Which might have been ok, had the tags not been "soldiers, useful idiots." Once the urge to manually adjust that attitude passed, I responded, and was pretty much ignored.
I'll let Andrew Klavan extend the answer for me.
Oh, and the only idiot involved was a useless one; the author of the post.
