Tu Sang Huiming: You can help the army, or you can fight against the war. Once or twice a month, this place is decorated with American flags and colorful flags, and various slogans are posted on the low wall facing the street: "The land of the free needs you to protect", "The military is the soul of the country", and "You can enjoy your future from now on" full of emotional words. It is not difficult to judge that this is the local recruitment station, and today is another recruiting day. The United States likes to fight, or has to like to fight. Whether it is the need to promote democracy, the trend of interests, or the desire for revenge, weapons, armies and soldiers are inseparable. Not long ago, they gathered ten years of hatred and poached Bin Laden from under the noses of other countries' military forces. The morale of the military was naturally boosted, so the recruitment momentum was particularly strong this time. With the help of the wind, the flag of victory was fluttering. It was so majestic and powerful. The old way of recruiting soldiers seems outdated. Although there are active military personnel in American universities, the recruiters are basically afraid to show up on campus. But in high schools, recruiters often lobby inside and outside the school gates to recruit students who have financial difficulties in going to college. They make many promises, including funding for college and future benefits. But now this wretched way of recruiting seems outdated. Supporters of the military also followed the wind, waving flags and shouting on the road across from the recruitment office, "Support our army" and "The army is our son." Some even brought out the famous picture from World War I and World War II of a soldier pointing his finger at you, making you feel ashamed for not even thinking of joining the army. But there are people who are not ashamed. Every time a recruiting station opens, there is always a group of anti-war groups accompanying it, standing opposite or parallel to each other at a distance. But the sign in hand and the slogan leaning on the roadside are different from the one in front. "NO WAR" is their theme, such as "War is not the solution to problems", "Peace is the world", etc. What is more subtle and strategic is that the anti-war opponents only play opposite and do not directly accuse the military. There are also emotional words: "Have you ever had a son?" An old woman tremblingly held up this light sign. But it was this sign that overwhelmed the passing vehicles and made the motorists moved. The slowing down of the car and the continuous sound of horns were all dedicated to this special anti-war person. And even though the soldier who was helping the army was covered with robes, old-time makeup, and my past honors, people still looked at him and left in a flash. Individual military personnel are protected by law and respected by public opinion in the United States, but as a whole, people basically stay away from them. Therefore, everyone sings his own thing and non-interference is the bottom line that both parties abide by. No one party accuses the other party face to face, and there is no physical contact. Of course, there is no police intervention or legal proceedings. When the recruitment time is over, both sides put away their respective flags and say goodbye. Because everyone understands that changing a person's mindset is more difficult than fighting a war. If one side opposes the great military Great Wall, and the other side holds up big flags, sings red songs, kills generals, and the police also come to cheer, then it is not the United States.
