By supporting the troops you are supporting the mass murder of civilians around the globe.

A lot of soldiers just sign up because they want to kill. I knew some from my high school and other towns.

Think about that before you cheer these guys.

Thats standard for those in the civilian world that wouldnt know what to do in a crisis or a disaster. Nor in defending and or saving themselves. Not with the Military. You mistake organization and efficiency with those who must be told what to do at all times of their existence. It is clear you are not aware of the sacrifice made and taken. For those that died just so you can have that say. http://politirant.com/Smileys/oldrant/usa2.gif

Fat chance of that, it's the pacifist who forget that it's our men and women in all branches of the military who died to give them the right to say what they want.

I had four years with A-10's, back in 79 they flew by sight with a map in their lap.

I've decided to un-ignore you and apologize for my outrage. Moving forward.

I'll start by saying that as much respect as I think I have for men and women in the military, my lack of understanding of their plight makes me incapable of giving due respect to the men and women who paid the ultimate price for our country. It is tough for any American to understand the battles that have been fought for them. Some pretend to understand more than they actually do. Until one can experience first hand, they just won't get it.

I'm not a pacifist. At the same time I don't support unjust, misguided or unprovoked wars. Most Americans can probably agree with that, though it gets more complicated when our definitions of unjust, misguided and unprovoked are compared. It's hard for us to clearly communicate our concerns without inadvertently undermining the efforts of the people who are out there doing what they're ordered to do. History has shown that these confusions can escalate to the point of displaying outright disrespect towards people in uniform, which is wrong.

People are proud of their shabby comprehension skills. As our knowledge of the world grows, so does our gaps of information. We creatively fill those gaps with the best possible intuition, and we adapt our thinking to try and prove our perceptions and will them into existence. Many of us practice this bad habit in our comprehension skills instead of patiently finding a practical answer. My point is, people are not communicating themselves correctly if they show lack of respect for the armed forces. Those people don't get it, they lack understanding. There is no way to force them to understand, and it only does more damage to chastise them for it. The best way to promote the cause of promoting respect is to inspire it.

No need to apologize to me, I sent you a PM with an apology, I never meant to irritate you. Honestly, I believe we think alike in some ways. Could be our life experiences conflict somewhat. In the end if you are a good person, I have nothing against you.

In the end I'm an uneducated guy who likes to talk politics. All in all we should not be in any foreign country without a reason. We have no reason to be in the countries we are occupying.

Well, here's my two cents...
U.S. Army vet, 1970-73. In my day, most of us wanted out as soon as our enlistment was up. They still had the draft, and it was a lot like the movie MASH. It was Vietnam though, instead of Korea. Many of my buds didn't come home. Like the Iraq/Afghan wars, Vietnam was a huge waste of money and American lives. They didn't send me to Nam because by the time I was old enough to go, the war was winding down. So they sent me to Iran. I had the best job in the military, financial dispersing. I paid the troops. Mess with me and you didn't get paid. But when they sent me to Iran there wasn't any finance office. All the records were kept in Germany. The only thing in Iran was a communications depot for the U.S. Embassy. They had sent me there by mistake. It's called military intelligence. So since I was there they gave me a top secret clearance and made me a teletype operator. We lived in a Persian Mansion with a swimming pool, a garden, cooks, and a gate keeper. The gate keeper was our black market operative. We could go to the PX and buy a hundred dollars worth of groceries and he'd give us $300.00 for them. I bought top of the line ski equipment for six bottles of Johnny Walker Scotch, six dollars a bottle. Lift tickets at the ski resorts was $2.00 all day. I worked at night, and skied six days out of every eight. Hash was twenty-five cents a gram. Out of the 40 troops, 35 smoked. The only ones that didn't was the C.O. the X.O. the Sgt. Major and two other Sgt.'s. They couldn't bust us because we always smoked in groups. So if they busted a bunch of us the communications depot couldn't operate. The Shah was in power back then, and prostitution was legal, thank goodness. If you didn't get laid by the hookers, you were either a virgin, or you dated rosy palm. The legal hookers were down in the old part of town, called Chaleyno. They cost about $2.00. Then there were the mid prices hookers. They hung out at the modern hotels in the middle of town. They wore mini skirts and fish net stockings, just like the ones down on west 42nd Street. When one of them step out in the street, there would be ten car loads of Iranian men that would stop in the middle of the street and start bidding for her. But if you were a rich American (and they figured we all were), all you had to do is toot your horn and they'd come running to hop in our car. But then we'd have to drive around an lose the Iranians that would follow us. Those girls cost $13.00 for all night. The high class hookers stayed in the hotels. Just ask the guy at the desk, $39.00 all night, and she was usually French or Swedish. I only got to stay in Iran for seven months before I was shipped to Shape Headquarters in Belgium, but that's another story. Five months after that was the end of my tour of duty. But in three years and nine months, I took basic in Kentucky, AIT in Missouri, another one in Indiana, then ten months in Ft. Huachuca Az., five months in South Carolina, seven months in Iran, one month in Belgium, and four months in Germany, and my last day at Ft. Dix New Jersey. Free at last!

Thats standard for those in the civilian world that wouldnt know what to do in a crisis or a disaster. Nor in defending and or saving themselves. Not with the Military. You mistake organization and efficiency with those who must be told what to do at all times of their existence. It is clear you are not aware of the sacrifice made and taken. For those that died just so you can have that say. http://politirant.com/Smileys/oldrant/usa2.gif

Yes but now days people think this came as a result of, hell who knows what they think it came from. In the end they believe it their right to burn the flag of our republic and speak their mind on any issue. And I will agree that it is their right, problem is that the majority of them are bashing and speaking ill of the very people who died to give them that right. Same as MMC said, this disgusts me to no end.

Even if they do not agree with a view, they should at least be thankful for the people who sacrificed it all in a gallant effort to provide them the choice to be a communist in this country.

Well to be honest.....I am not against all liberals, Democrats, and or conservatives. Even tho I was raised up around them my entire life and have thorough knowledge of Democractic workings and strategy all from the Chicago Machine. I note the difference in those who have served and gone into combat. These libs and Demos know exactly the Cost of the Price paid. They do not act or talk like some of the fools we have around here. So respects from these types are not even a concern.

As far as Free Speech is concerned. Truthfully I think that law is overhyped. As anyone can say whatever out of their mouth. IMO I think most believe they have this right. But in truth.....they do not. As evidenced by those in the street module. Which do make up for more than 1/4 of the American Population.

I have never been involved around those that burn American Flags. Not much of that goes around by me. Those that do this, talk shit about those who sacrificed all so people could have their liberties. Put us down. Now these our the ones I take issue with. As they believe for some reason they are entitled to say whatever they want out of their mouths. Without thinking of that thought.....as to what the consequenses are for them doing such.

Good comments, and I commend all my Vet comrades and all those presently serving.

I served from 1966 to 1968. I got one of those letters that started with, "Greetings, you are hereby ordered-----."

On July 4th 2012.....we had 5 of our Troopers shot in the back and killed by an Afghan Security Member. The following week we lost 6 troopers in a Tank from a IED. Now just the Other day we lost another from Rockford Illinois. All US Troopers.

Yeah.....and the what really bothers me. Is Our Troopers being Shot in the Back. Stabbed in the back. What makes it worse is we knew the Afghanis were never Honorable in the first play.

What we should have done is never Negotiated with the Taliban to give them an Office in Qatar. Plus lets not forget Obama is releasing some of their prisoners who will go Right back out there with the intention of killing Americans.

One thing I do know. If I can walk up Right behind Karzai. Or Abdullah of the Saud. I would take my boot and put if off into their Azz. Then dare them to do something about it. Other than hawk up a luggie.
