yeah. street gangs do the same. young kid is reticent about killing. get them to join up at 17 and comes back with valueable skills and if a war was happening then all the better as they will get rid of that hesitation they had.
I wonder what the balance is between that killer conditioning & training coming right back to the streets versus an unexpected career that takes the person away from the gang.
That’s the problem of the other side, sorry. Leftists should join the military to receive the necessary training. Why - because a knife is not good or bad, it’s a tool. If your enemy is buying a knife, you’d better buy a knife too.
That’s the problem. These guys get out of the military and there are no enemies, so they have to invent them. Your solution just produces more people looking for enemies to stab.
When I had a yellow jacket nest in my garage, the solution wasn’t “more yellow jackets,” it was to get rid of the nest. When your house is on fire, the fire department doesn’t show up with flame throwers to make more fire. When you accidentally poop your pants, the solution isn’t to poop some more.
Yet somehow when the problem is gun violence, people think the solution is somehow more guns and more violence.
A lot of wannabe extremists are encouraged to join the military to receive training by other wannabe extremists.

If there are already a lot of such guys on the other side, and these ones will be on your side, then it’s still right.
“Side”
This isn’t a sports game, it’s real life.

One can find such analogies and one can find analogies with the opposite result.
That’d be because analogies don’t prove anything.
