[Tierbook]

Sure. But ideally I'd be killing rather than dieing.

No.

Well yeah, that's obvious in my question

I would fight to my death to defend my country and kill anyone in my way if it came to defending my home and country, especially if another country tried to invade the USA.

We can't wait

[Jtbrig7390]

Nope no chance in hell.

[Hammerfest]

Jesus: Yes
Country: No

[Deleted]

Preferably not.

[Jaylock]

Nope no chance in hell.

If everyone in your country felt that way, there's a good chance your freedom and national sovereignty could be taken from you. You would be okay with that?

The point is, i would die to protect the freedoms that I enjoy as a US citizen.

A better question would be: "Will you kill/fight for your country?". I think the vast majority of any military personnel is willing to fight and kill for their country, and while they do know the risk of doing so, they are not exactly willing to die. If going to the middle east meant a 100% chance of death, i doubt we would have any soldiers willing to go there.

[Theinquisition]

I would die to preserve the freedoms enshrined in the constitution.

[Puupi]

Jesus: Yes
Country: No

You would die for Jesus?

[Shadowferal]

depends upon the circumstances.
Needless to say it's not "Plan A."
Or even Plan B."

[Puupi]

Well yeah, that's obvious in my question

If one day there will be need for suicide bombers in the US, Trump will probably make a hotline call to you.

Which is, when reversed, why so many countries have an anti-US sentinment going on.

Not going to die for a country that is at the ready to throw me under the bus.

I respect those who do fight for this country (as much as I respect a cop or fire fighter). But no I would not do it myself.

A country has to be defended from the trouble inside too, not just foreign invaders. Your freedom is more likely to be taken by your countrymen, rather than an invader.

No. I will die for good ideals and that may mean for my country if my country follows those moral ideals. That is the path of patriotism.

I will not die for a country just because I happen to live there. I will not die for a country that holds immorality as a high standard. That is the path of nationalism.
