No latin, but as close as I can get to semper fidelis
What you said above about democracy is true but its weekness is also its strength. As stupid as "we the people" can get sometimes at least we can make these mistakes without needing a revolution to fix them.....I hope.
Marines have had to endure and pay for in blood the stupidity of politicians and civilians, foreign and domestic, since they were founded. They suffered it with pride and faith that we would eventually get it right. All I can say to you and your brothers is GOD BLESS THE MARINE CORPS and THANK YOU! Keep the faith. We'll get there.
Well, with you guys coming back theres going to be at least 10 marines for every meth dealer and probably one funeral for every child molester (just kidding but you know what I mean). 10 marines setting the example in every neighborhood is going to go a long way toward setting the neighborhoods and the politics in this country right. Mission isnt over yet I am afraid. Welcome home. We need ya here!
I have fired weapons in combat situations, am familiar with the emotional response and do not think that it would be any harder to rationalize/justify doing so to protect yourself/loved one/domicile than it is to protect "democracy" in a country that isn't interested in personal freedom. Just my $0.02...

Where I live there's a meth dealer on every corner and a child molester in every neighborhood, and as has been posted by the OP things are probably going to be getting worse before they get better. For that reason I am armed and ready.
