Just throwing this out there, but nothing is more evolved than something else.

It's not just pandas, people are concerned about many creatures that are close to extinction.

If you want to get technical with numbers then 1 out of 150 pandas would be closer to loosing 42,000,000 people in some tradgedy. And even then not even close cause we still have a shit load of humans left

There's a big difference between loosing a drop of blood from a pin prick than there is cutting your heart out and bleeding yourself dry.
You hold someone in your arms as they die, 'k? You watch a mother when she's handed a folded flag. You take a look at the total devastation caused when someone dies.

I went 68W for a reason.

Many people die every day, I'm not saying it's not tragic in its own way. Of course it causes pain and grief for their loved ones.

All I'm saying is that on a global scale 1 person dying isn't going to hurt the human race. Nor would 1 million people dying. But if something is soo close to exctinction, as in once the last one dies this species will never exist again, it's very significant when one of them passes away. And since we're the ones who hunted them to extinction along with many other species we should be held accountable and make every effort to save the species.

btw I don't know what

Google it.

Btw, best service for medical things would be Air Force, then Navy, then Army, then Marines. I have zero experience with Coast Guard, but I don't think it'd be lower than Marines.

Apparently 6 million is the magic number....

He only came in cause he wanted in on that sponsorship deal that coke has with the polar bears.
I think polar bears want more coke, so they came up with the global warming theory

Marine medics are Navy Corpsmen. And we get cool shit, like learning about priapisms.

I did not know that. I know all about priapisms, and I know I don't ever want one, especially if I've fallen from a ladder or some shit like that. That would just suck.

Make it even worse if you fell a second time(like fell off a ladder onto a roof, then rolled off the roof), and when you landed, you landed face down and it broke. I think I'd just die right then. Might fix the priapism though.
