Poll question: How do you define a chickenhawk?
Advertisements [?]
This is a question of degree. If you support just war in general, but you've never served, are you an automatic CH? I would emphatically say no. My opinion is that only the second option applies.

Poll result (55 votes)
Someone who supports war, but has never served. (8 votes, 15%)Vote
Someone who supports war, nerved served, but questions the patriotism of those who oppose the war (especially those anti-war persons who have served) (47 votes, 85%)Vote
