Gang member vs military soldier whats the difference?

Gangs don't pay for your college, give you a steady check and benefits. All a gang promises is a early trip to the grave.

"a gang-member mindlessly follows the big homie-(leader)-soldier mindlessly follows his superior officer" One might wonder what colour the sky is in your world. Chances are more likely a soldier will be on a UN peacekeeping mission, and do so... long before any gang-member will have even the concept of a thought as grand never mind actually walking the walk and doing it. Meanwhile the gang-member is content to sell crack to schoolkids doing drive-by's, maybe killing the person they were after... sometimes do anyways what with their aim and training bein' so good. Street cred credencials and honour over the military. riiiiiiiight.

you still haven't said one time when whole gangs went out to defend us. Bombing isnt all of war and if that's what you think, then you need to dig into some biographies. War is all about placement, moving soldiers in and out without being seen, being able to get intel especially from local people, being about to out maneuver your opponent, getting the higher ground, attacking your opponent at his weakest moment. If the world knew when, where and how we would attack- we would accomplish nothing and never win. I'm sorry I couldnt understand a few of those sentences, did you say our military is pathetic? We have one of the best trained militaries if not the best and that's why we win wars, not bombing. If all the world thought we could do was bomb, then America would not exist right now. A nation that only has bombs is no threat to the world because they have no defenses. No one bombs themselves. We have a military to keep them off our shores and that's what people see when they think militarily Look it up where? You have no idea what you are saying. You can't even form a proper sentence you uneducated child. We got beat in vietnam because of poor leadership and terrible ground control. We were supposed to have bombers clear out the turrets on the beach but they never came so the turrets ripped our men to shreds. You have no education on warfare and it shows. You argue with no foundation. Our weaponry was the best but it was not suited for the terrain of vietnam. The guns jammed and had troubles shooting when they were dopped in water and mud. We later came out with the M16A1 which was supposed to be all terrain but it wasn't as durable as the weapon being used against us, the AK. We had better accuracy and better bullet power but the terrain killed us. As stated before in previous paragraphs, higher ground and ground control will win a war, not just bombing. Thank you for proving my point. It's napalm* would you rather be a America's POW where even our criminals get fed, free medicine, a bed, roof, and AC -- where we no longer punish with torture or death OR the POW of some of our allies where you are blindfolded, tortured, made to kill your brothers and sisters in arms, videorecorded and sent to your family to watch you suffer? Clearly we are terrible people Yes clearly the one who can read and thinks for himself is the brainwashed one. Clearly the one who is comprehending both sides of the argument is not going to "get it" hahahahaha. The reason America is in the tubes is because we haven't gotten rid of the conspiracy believing uneducated baboons like yourself. You couldn't tell what was true if it was carved in stone in front of your eyes. Please do us all a favor and move to a different country. You didnt know how to read three years ago and you're saying you have a better comprehension than someone who has been studying the topic for 3 times that amount? Everyone who competes with a gang is its enemy. If America as a nation took that view, then every nation in the world would be our enemy. Our enemies are terrorists as of right now and if attacks are taken against US embassies in and near Israel, then those nations that attack us will also be considered enemies. Gangs find new enemies everytime a new gang shows up or someone decides to sell something on the side instead of with the gang as a whole. You are not putting things together. We do have problems in our own country but can we take care of our own country if it is being threatened by an outside force? Do not assume I'm just repeating what I hear as you assume to be doing. As stated before, I have actually studied these things and watched other nations make similar choices based on outside vs inside military actions. You are now using 2 unrelated topics. No I didnt join a gang, We had a family of 8 (once my dad left us with $120 grand in debt) so everyone one in the family picked up every little job they could to help pay it off. my mom worked 80 hours a week in 2 full time nursing jobs while everyone else (ages ranging from 5-26) worked our butts off to pay for the debt and all the other bills we had including education because we didnt make others pay for our education in public schooling. Don't give me your sob story for joining a gang because its irrelevant. The MILITARY has to keep secrets because it it didnt, it would be more harm than good. Even if they told the truth, people like you wouldnt believe them anyway so why hurt Americans and still not be trusted? I'm glad you can smell things that dont have a smell unless you talking about actual feces that comes out of a bull. Go ahead and try to "hit me on the head" with any of your ideas but they will fall right off just like the rest of your reasoning.

Thankfully I didn't marry an idiot who mindlessly follows orders. My husband has also never been told to kill anyone. You have been watching too many movies.

Innocent people? Think about it like this, I think the US is the kindest country to our enemy civilans. If Iraq was in this country they would litterally shoot ANYONE they see. We aid the Iraqi people and there neigboring countries. You don't know anything about the military. So I suggest you shut it.

The complexity of and comparing (nexus) gang verse military is beyond your comprehension, glad your brother served however, could his stories been just that? I ask you do you know the difference between a fairytale and a true story? I find your statement audacious and abhorrent no matter the explanation nothing will be palpable. A gang is recidivism at its worst and the majority of active duty members are very venerated with their choice of service.

The difference is a gang they can careless about anybody but themselve, I do not see any way you are saving your life or anybody esle. I think if your tough and rough go sigh-up in the military and be a fighter for your country not some stupid ildoit controlling every stupid thing, you have a mind of your own . use it!!!!! wisely!!!!!

man needful sinner is stupid i believe in what your saying 100% how i mean both will send you to the grave i think what your saying is gangs are looked down on for killing and selling drugs but i ask you how many soldier's are doing drugs over seas right now come on you said drugdealers sell drugs to scholl kids thats **** is a myth most of the teenage drug addicts started selling before using further more the military recruits young kids just like gangs do so whats your point you can set up and believe that soldiers are are fighting for honor if you want but we live in te real world where im from and its been proven numerous times that the government is lying about what we are fighting for man its serous in here why all the hate i wouldn't join ether of them hahahaha
