Modern soldiers have to go through very intensive training to be taught to kill. giving them a gun, ammo and teaching them to aim and pull the trigger at a paper target is something anyone can do. Killing someone is something very different.
Go back to playing soldiers on your computers.  |
But you are missing the most important aspect Paul.
We aren't talking about soldiers being sent to a foreign land to attack.
We are talking about people on their own land, in their own houses fighting to survive.
These are two vastly different things and I guarantee you it's much easier pulling the trigger over and over on people who are invading your space.
When you are protecting yourself and your loved ones you become quite the killer very fast, or die.
