Care to correct the error in my logic? Is it not true that the military is mostly filled with the misfits of the younger generation? The it's mostly the 18-25 year olds with the least promise ahead of them that decide to enter? That it's mostly the less educated or the discipline problems that result in poor grades, or the borderline kids who are just too poor to afford college that end up going into the military. And therefore you have hundreds of thousands of 20 year olds who are either angry at society for their lot in life (not arguing they don't have a reason to be) and/or are just complete douchebags? Couple that with the fact that even most sane, rational, intelligent 20 year old is still a jackass.
Are you honestly surprised that this type of shit goes on?
