They only did because of peer pressure

Seriously? What the fuck man. I've heard of some freaky hazing shit before but that's on a whole different level. That's the kind of hazing you'd expect to see out of a military or police force from a third world country like the erm... *Glances awkwardly at shroom* ..... anyways. Not something I'd ever though i'd hear about from fucking Canada.

Just to know...

What happen in most cases of hazing when the victims just tell the perpetrators to go fuck themselves ?

The unit had a lot of issues.

We're not immune to stupidity.

Oxy, generally they would have got the shit kicked out of them and their life in the unit would have been a living hell.

At best, you won't be considered part of the group. Which is an issue if you're relying on the people around you to keep you alive.

Fucking hell. That's not an attitude becoming of Professionals.

Goddamn manchilds.

Yeah well the theory of professional behavior and the reality aren't quite the same.

This is men who are trusted to hold loaded guns and use them in high-stress conditions we are talking about, not McDonald's employees.

The one study I read dealing specifically with hazing in the CAR indicated that there was no overt penalties to people who "opted out" of hazing. Ie, no beatings etc, but whether or not they occurred but were covered up really well is a possibility.

If there were no beatings or anything, then men ate shit and vomit willingly.

The Canadian military tends to be fairly conservative.

Listen Canucklehead. You don't know what conservative is. Up by you, even the conservatives are for socialized medicine and social safety nets. And you don't have anywhere near as much in your politics as we do.

I don't think artemis understands how peer pressure works

I don't think zhak understands the difference between physical violence and ostracism.

Protip; they are the same thing

um. What?

Ignore him.

Sorry, ostracism is just as much bullying as physical violence

Yes, they're both forms of bullying, but they aren't the "same thing." Personally i'd rate a fucking beating as a little worse than being excluded from the group

Indeed. You can laugh at people's verbal abuse, but no amount of self-esteem will stop a punch to the head.

Last time I checked, ASSAULT was actually a CRIME, not just a social dick move.

Actually I'd rather take the beating, cause when it's over its over.

Yeah, the MPs were scared shitless of the Airborne, they wouldn't have done fuck all.

So were the airborne like the most elite unit in your military or something?

They also gave MP's and officers the green wall when they were trying to figure out who from 2 commando torched the car of the duty officer who tried to curb their fireworks shenanigans.

At the time.
