I heard Michael Ironside when Mr. DuBois was speaking.
"A soldier accepts personal responsibility for the safety of the body politic of which he is a member, defending it, if need be, with his life. The civilian does not."
"The exact words of the book," he said scornfully.
"Bud do you understand it? Do you believe it?"
I guess that's as far as Verhoeven read.
A citizen returns the shopping cart. A civilian does not.
