to be sick of hearing about soldiers being killed in afghanistan

[southeastastra]

and think we should pull out

don't be such a dick

blimey can you explain your answer?

words fail me at your crassness and insensitivity

I think the OP probably means well

what is crass about suggesting we shouldn't be sending teenage boys out there to fight??

crass is not questioning it??

agree with Stoatie, I don't often say this but what a completely nasty and shit thread to start - you are something else. Horrible and completely stupid and disrespectful.

if that is what you meant, then word your thread appropriately not in the crass way you did. what you put and how you said it was awful.

am in a parallel universe, it mn really this thick these days?

The OP is being misread, or rather not read & only the title is being read.

I get your sentiment but you could have worded your thread title a little more sensitively.

It is not the sentiment of what you are saying it is how you have worded it.

well you don't have to. If it is on TV switch over. If it is in the paper don't read the story.

Moronic thread title. You must be a real twit.

again, agree with stoatie

I don't think I need to explain myself tbh OP.

OP what a crass thing to say, you an army wife? Nope I guessed so. My DP is in the army so I know how it feels when they go on tour. What a stupid stupid thing to say

am genuinely amazed how wrongly this has been taken!!

I am not thick - my OH was in the services - has fought in conflict. I do agree with your viewpoint but not how you have worded the title -

Does anybody like hearing about soldiers being killed in Afghanistan, then?

I think the OP means that we shouldn't be out there fighting and people losing their lives, therefore we need to pull out, not that she doesn't want to hear about soldiers dying FFS.

I dont think op means she is sick of hearing about it i think she means she is sick of hearing about the total waste of young lives who have their whole lives ahead of them still.

Forgive me if i am wrong op.

can I put inot words what everyone else is thinking

and say, fuck off troll and go and annoy 4chan?

I guess when you hear it every day you grow so used to it, it kind of goes over your head. I know its terrible for the families involved but when it happens almost every day I guess it makes you wonder.
If I am true to myself I think it's a lost cause and one by one our men are slipping away.

She isn't a troll, she just worded it badly

well, crapbag and doingthebest thats not actually what the OP said...

I think people are reading " I am sick of hearing..." as " I am bored of hearing ..."

I believe the op means

" I am heartsick/ beyond sorrowful/ sick with grief about soldiers being killed"

I think op means it is tragic.
Not that it is dull
