I mean seriously, you want to know what the **** is wrong with american society?
Its the idiots becoming empowered in media, and the smart people figuring this out and making billions on it.

And you missed my point completely... what does it matter if it presents an opposing side and glorifies it? Who cares if it turns tree hugging into a perverse pornographic **** fest? What the **** does it matter? Why do you need to get so upset to the point where you feel like you have to run away from a differing view? Insecure? Weak minded? Incapable? Which is it?

A movie on snipers?! I can't wait. 
I'm sure it'll be some "sniper team" straight out of basic with no company or battalion support element or attachment. 'The Pacifier' came at the expense of numerous authiSEAL requests. I pray to god I run into someone claiming to be a sniper sometime soon.

I would like to clarify my issue with the movie of AN. When looking for movies that show the absurdity and futility of war, then I would compare it to Catch-22, which IMO captures that much better and is far more true to life in how the military operates.

LTG Foley, he won the MOH and the only reason we knew was because of the upperclassmen telling us. Never once did he mention it.
i work with a x-ranger that has been thru numerous long deployments in different hostile regions. all i know is he served proud and has seen alot of action.
says very little about what hes seen but enough to have you set back in a daze of wonder.
very quite guy and humble to be around but at the same time uneasy from years of war.
i love the guy non the less and show him nothing but respect for his service.
edgar,

and just knowing how kanye (the educated idiot) and his side kick feel about this issues im sure its another movie full of bs.
bs. that take a real war and uses it to base a movie that only depicts the minority of those serving in the military as the majority for the purpose of making $.
i see this to be just as bad as the scum bag that claims to have served as a navy seal at the local bb gun shoot out.
