FUCKING HIGH SCHOOLS?? Those kids can't even pee without permission, yet somehow they are considered adult enough to be sent into the Middle East to kill people???????

So thankful I didn't grow up there, I can't even imagine dealing with that on top of all the other high school angst.

Edit: I should say, you do have to be 18 to serve. But it's still indoctrinating kids into thinking that's all they'll be able to do to survive...
