… Americans!

Despite spending $11.6 billion on policing the world in an attempt to shut down drug cartels, and spending $500 million in anti-drug campaigns, America is totally f**ked up.

Over 16.2 percent of Americans have tried cocaine at least once, and 42.4 percent have used marijuana, making us the world’s top consumers of these drugs. In two 2007 raids alone, the DEA seized 42 tons of coke worth $3.5 billion dollars. (If you want to see what 40,000 pounds of coke looks like then watch this video.)

It’s single, young adult men with high incomes, not the “leprechaun flute” toting crack heads, that are fueling the booming drug industry–so you can be sure that South American drug cartels are running wild producing drugs are a quicker pace than ever. Go War on Drugs!

Asscrackistan: A War Story

Twenty-four hours prior to the most humiliating moment of my life, I was riding high–it was a good day in Afghanistan. My platoon were the first troops from the 82nd in country, and our operational pace had been nonstop for four months. I’d seen a lot things, but nothing could prepare me for what was about to happen.

Several high-ranking officers had been selected to go have a meet-and-greet, diplomatic-type lunch with the Afghan warlords that ran the area. They selected me to accompany them to lunch. At the time, I thought that I was some sort of super-trooper, asked to attend because I was the best my unit had to offer. As a PFC (Private First Class), I was probably just there to fill a seat and provide some added level of security. Read More »

Missing the Mark: American Cheerleaders at War

Despite my opposition to the Iraq war, we still have to support the troops, and we should do whatever we can to make them feel better over, despite their circumstances.

But is sending in Cheerleaders the right move? I mean, you’re not getting laid for the most part while you’re at war. Do you really need hot chicks who won’t have sex with you shaking their asses in your face? Read More »

Not Your Average Bomb: The Gay Bomb

I’ll be the first to admit that I did some messed up shit to my frenemies during my younger years. One time in middle school, my friends and I poured Snapple and mashed strawberries in a girl’s backpack because we were fighting for absolutely no reason.

Seeing as our military isn’t in middle school (though they are in a similar predicament: fighting for absolutely no reason), I’d expect a little more tact from them. But apparently the U.S. military has come down with the mean girls-syndrome that I suffered circa the strawberry incident.

No, they didn’t mash strawberries in the backpacks of Iraqi extremists. But they did do some very Regina George-esque plotting to create a gay bomb to use against enemy soldiers. A gay bomb. Seriously.

A watchdog organization that tracks military spending exposed the U.S. military’s plan to build a bomb that could turn opposing soldiers gay—consequently shifting their focus from fighting to sex, CBS reported.

The watchdog group found that “the Ohio Air Force lab proposed that a bomb be developed that contained a chemical that would cause enemy soldiers to become gay, and to have their units break down because all their soldiers became irresistibly attractive to one another.â€? Read More »
