his attitude has gone the exact same way. Now, he never was a deep thinker or anything, but that makes me even more afraid as the propaganda he's spouting must have been learned from someone he considers an authority figure (like his CO).
See, in that situation I think I'm a little luckier. My brohter does do a lot of thinking about stuff, but his problem is that everyone else influences that thinking. But I'm thinking that he'll probably change his mind again in a while anyway. Do you know, yesterday I made a comment about Bush's "unlawful combatants" and someone told me that I should watch what I say, as I could be "reported"?!?! I couldn't believe it! I was absolutely speechless.
Wow. That's never happened to me before.
I wish it had. Oh the things I'd say to THAT comment. I'd rip them a new pair of lungs.

Metaphorically speaking, of course.
