livin42nite Posted April 23 Report Share Posted April 23 Anybody that goes out there and fights in the wars is a hero. Its truly sad what happened to this guy and its a good thing there are people like him out there; guarantee not many people would have turned down 4 million to go to afghanista. This guy could have been enjoying his money, chilling at home, and living the life of a sports star but he didn't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think there are about 705 or so more posts to make to pay our respects to other that gave up a lot less to fight for our "freedom". Please don't turn this into a thread about whether or not the war is justified but about 705 people lost their life before Tillman and they are all heroes!!!

Nothing against digitalp. but these guys are dying out there, would not hurt to mourn them a bit instead of jumping at every chance to criticize bush. This was a war fought over security and these people went there to make your life more secure. Some respect for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blondeboheme Posted April 23 Report Share Posted April 23 What a man, to pass up so much money to do what he believed was right. :bowdown: A loss of talented person with a lot of integrity. Every life that has been lost in the war has a person and a whole life story behind it, no matter what social or economic status the person came from. The army isn't an easy way out or last resort kind of occupation, in my opinion. Everyone fighting for us is heroic, and every loss a tragic one.

blondeboheme Posted April 23 Report Share Posted April 23 OK, you've got a choice to make. You could ...Sign a football contract for $4 million and live the life of a professional athlete with money, cars, women, amazing qourmet food, a sweet crib, and celebrity status.Or you could...Live in a testosterone feuled warzone making a soldier's wages and eating recycled cafeteria food everyday, knowing you could lose your life at any moment and kiss your dreams goodbye forever, trade in your celebrity status for statistic status.Rest In Peace Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact of the matter is he put his country and loyalty to his country before his own personal gratification. The concept is quite amazing if you ask me.
