Well, sort of... paid to take a bullet in defense of our freedoms... I'm not sure that personally, they'd all agree that they've pledged to die for each and every individual.... Like my DH, I am not convinced he'd take a bullet for the hippies I've got camped out in my front yard...
Sort of?? Everyone raises their hand and SWEARS to protect our country from ALL enemies both forgiegn AND domestic. Even scumbags.
COUNTRY, not individuals, there's a large difference there. I wouldn't have taken a bullet to protect a bunch of hippies, but I WOULD have shot back at whoever was aiming in their direction... it's a fine line and unless you've served, you don't know what that is.
