    I put "veterans" in quotes because I wonder how many of them were actually vets, and of those, who were throwing away things they had actually earned. I also wonder if it's possible to revoke the awards for those who no longer want them.

    I wonder if they got Purple Hearts for high blood pressure from Baskin and Robbins & Pizza Hut at BAF too? I smell FOBBITs.

    How does that act reconcile with Afghan and Iraqi people? I am pretty sure they don't know/care about what he/they are doing.

    We (as in a former unit) had a dirtbag E-5 throw his ARCOM or AAM (don't remember what he got) in the trash right in front of our leadership at an award ceremony right before we left theatre. I thought they were going to rip his head of. To this day, I don't know how he rated an award after threatening a couple of our Sr. NCOs and pulling a bunch of other shit. He ended up in jail a couple of days after we got back (called the cops on himself).

    Alright Steve, give back your ICM, ASR, and NDSM. I'm sure you don't have much else.

    A whole year spent in Iraq. Yea I can see how enjoying the awesome chow at one of the big ass main bases and enjoying a awesome PX and hot water was a sacrifice on your part there Steve. Was probably the long lines at the internet center that gave you the PTSD.

    He likes:
    Veterans for Medical Cannabis (go figure)
    Sexy Athiests, Athiests United (doesn't surprise me)
    Rethink Afghanistan (never served there)

    Activities:
    Iraq and Afghanistan (but he never served in afghanistan)

    I have a feeling he never stepped foot in Sadr City either. I think he claims that just because many recognize it as a rough place in Iraq.

    The reality, the sad, sad reality is that there are plenty of Americans in uniform like this clown. I know of one Ranger/ SF/ Delta type who broadcasts some of the dumbest shit I've ever read/ heard so to have this 13Fuckup step forward for his moment in the sun isn't surprising.

    How much do you want to bet that he isn't too ashamed of his military service to reject his GI Bill?

    Curiously, two of the biggest "haters" of the military I've ever known (the kind who are always bitching about their time in uniform) are also 3rd ID alumni.

    I can see why someone could get all down on the Military after serving. I know people that have been fucked pretty good by their branch and I understand their bitterness.
    I also think the medals/awards etc... are theirs do with as they please.

    That said, I despise these fucking John Kerry wannabe assholes. Lets go through your DD214 and see exactly what you did/experienced. They stand behind their Military service like a shield while slamming it. Fuck you.

    Did the Military conscript them? Did the Military fuck them or did a couple of douchebag Officers/NCOs? Did they get fucked at all or were they simply not suited to the life? Were they forced to do illegal things or did they just not like war and all that comes with it.

    It's war, bad things happen, sometimes to good people. Here goes a tissue, Harden the fuck up.

    They could always volunteer for service with the glorious army of the North Korea! See how horrible and evil the US military is after spending some time living under the loving care of the dear leader :p

    Apparently this douchebag hates the military and the U.S. because we forced kids to walk through their own sewage on their way to school. For some reason, I can't picture this guy going over there and building a sewage system. :rolleyes:

    The funny thing, it sounds like he is going to try and build a mini-Iraq:
    I wonder if he will have sewage. Then he can use methane as a renewable energy source.
