    Georgia

    Columbus, GA (Ft. Benning to be exact) here. Not a native though, stationed here with the military. I don't particularly care for Columbus, but enjoy GA as a whole.

    U.S. Supreme Court Rules Juvenile Death Penalty Unconstitutional

    The military cannot change a person, we cannot teach them to be moral and honest and law abiding. All the military can do is mold what already exists within a person. If you're a scum bag when you enter the military, you will be a scum bag when you leave. Gang bangers, sociopath's, and the...

    Want to hit the highest peak in each state?

    How experienced and competent a climber you need to be to summit Denali greatly depends on your route and the season and if you take the tourist approach as opposed to the mountaineer approach. No non-skilled climber with a 3-5 day mountaineering course would not survive Cassin Ridge or...

    U.S. Supreme Court Rules Juvenile Death Penalty Unconstitutional

    "It is proper that we acknowledge the overwhelming weight of international opinion against the juvenile death penalty." -- Justice Kennedy So now the Court not only is going to change the Constitution based on U.S. public opinion of the moment, but also based on international opinion...

    Check these sites out

    Please remember when buying items that "Support the Troops," that they do in fact help support the troops. Many sites do not donate any of their profits to the troops themselves. It may look nifty to have those yellow magnetic ribbons and KIA braclets, but if the money isn't going to those it...

    Will Ireland ever be free

    Unfortunately, it is not that simple. N. Ireland (UK) is more of an enemy to itself than Ireland could ever be.

    Commanche vs Raptor

    To date, I am pretty sure the majority of crashes have been caused by ground fire, or at least ground fire has been the contributing factor to mechanical failures. Then of course we have the enviroment (sand / weather), which seems to be the second cause of crashes. I do not disagree that...

    whats better madden or 2k5???????

    I've played both and have to say ESPN 2k5 beats EA's Madden NFL 2005 by a slight margin. The main thing that makes 2k5 better is its price, it isn't often you find a high quality game for $20. On another note, EA has bought the NFL license for the next five years, that means they have...

    Will Ireland ever be free

    Ireland has been "free" since the 20's. As for N. Ireland, at the moment British loyalists outnumber Irish republicans so there is no chance at having a vote bring N. Ireland back into the folds of Ireland. Many have given up on the hope of ever reuniting Eire and Ulster. Even the so...

    Commanche vs Raptor

    It is why the AF has had to cut its original number. 279 A/C are all the AF are getting, they've had to cut 96 already and as costs rise, more cuts are inevitable. The actual cost of the A/C is $256.9 million at this time. The F/A 22 is more of a replacement for the F-15/18. Not the A-10...

    Navy S.e.a.l.s.

    Your first step will be contacting a Navy Special Warfare recruiter. (1-888-USN-SEAL) He will inform you of a program called the SEAL Challenge Program Option. I would not advise enlisting under this program without learning more about the Navy, SEALs, their structure and typical mission...

    Commanche vs Raptor

    Scratching the RAh-66 Comanche was one of the better ideas to come out of the puzzle palace. The helo is exorbitantly expensive at $52 million each. But not only that, it is obsolete. It was originally designed in the late 80's as a reconnaissance helicopter for East Europe, now our...

    Is it just a matter of time before.....

    The "frontlines" are practically non-existent in today's modern warfare. Women are out there, doing many of the same jobs as their male counter parts in combat support and combat service support roles. However, I believe what they are allowed now should be as far as it goes. CS and CSS...
