littlestonedfox:

I appreciate the fact that they are risking their lives to defend what they think is right, but they’re fighting for a facist government that’s responsible for the deaths of millions upon millions of people, and they say it’s in the name of freedom, when our rights are being stripped away to the bone each and every day. And they justify the slaughter of innocent people, men, women and children alike, in the name of our country. I’m sorry, but I don’t respect you more because you were gullible enough to sign your life and all your rights away to be owned by the government and used as a pawn in the sick, twisted war that will never end. You CHOSE to sign up and sign your rights away, you CHOSE to fight. And just because you’re in the military, doesn’t make you stronger, smarter, or more of a patriot than me. I’m a patriot because I didn’t leave my family behind, I chose to stay and defend my home on my own turf, I didn’t sign up to fight someone else’s bullshit war, I chose to stay and protect my family and fellow man, so in my eyes, that makes me more of a patriot. The military shouldn’t receive discounts on everything everywhere, especially if they ask for it. If you come into the restaurant I work at, dressed in uniform, and you are polite, courteous and nice, I will give you the discount, but if you ask for it, because you expect different treatment because you chose to fight someone else’s war, no I’m not okay with that. And the military always treat civilians like they’re above them, like the civilians should clear the fucking street for them and give up their own seat and get on their knees so they could be used as a foot stool. No, I don’t respect you, at all, because you signed up to take the lives of innocent people if your commanding officer gave you the order. No, I don’t respect you for not being intelligent enough to research the corruption in your own government before you go and fight for it a few thousand miles away. I don’t. And I get judged by this all the time, and people say I’m ungrateful for what I have and the life I live that they are trying to protect. But they’re wrong, and they’re just as ignorant as the soldiers.

there is such a lack of logic in this entire thing

AND it said “ignorant”

so overall this post is complete and utter bullshit

this is fucking horrible.

This person IS ignorant, because they disregard peoples PERSONAL choices for joining the military.

And if they didn’t go out there to fight for our country, then everyone else would be shit out of luck because there would be a draft.

And that’s only the tip of the iceberg.

There are just way too many things wrong with this entire post.
