Don't hide behind the word \"generalization\", so you can wiggle around people calling you on what your thoughts are.

That's pretty much the text book definition of "generalization", stupid.

I think the majority of people who enter the military do so because they have few other options ahead of them, and not because they are John Wayne patriots. Those who have few other options, are essentially good people, but aren't that bright or driven (and can get caught up in the mob-mentality that we saw here), or are just bad people who want to kill people and break things (who would be the ones driving the type of anti-social torture/humiliation that occured).
