I also agree with this, as well. I don't know what his personal opinion has to do with his arms dealership. It can be wrong, stupid and ill-advised, but does it really hurt anyone?


... and that right there, in a nutshell, is what the frick is wrong with this country.

Oh yeah, absolutely, fund your fricking philosophical enemies. Makes total fricking sense ... fricking hypocrites.

You bitch about money to veterans, which are certainly not your enemies, you fund your enemies which would sooner cut your cowardly fricking heads off than piss on you if you were on fire ... and then you ask that stupid fricking question.

frick!

frick!


I was the fourth generation of my family to join the military. My great grandfather Oliver was in the Navy, my grandfather was in the Army, my mother (and father) were/(is) in the Army and went to BNCOC at the Mac and as I said: I was in the Navy and worked for the Army as a contractor afterwards.

Half of the people in here have served as well, and half are saying that this is just some dumb fricking redneck saying some dumb shite on Facebook for some attention.

If I've learned anything about the internet it's: Under no circumstances should you allow someone to control you, especially when they're doing it mentally.

And what you're doing right now is letting him control you, you've already lost.

Scrooster, the idea behind serving in the military is to protect the freedoms the founding fathers set in stone for us.

Among those freedoms is the freedom for that guy to run his mouth. Right or wrong he can say what ever the frick he wants to, it's America.

You're also free to disagree, but generally, in cases like these it's not worth the effort. That is to say folks like him don't give a shite what you think.

It's whatever, maybe if I lived there and was in the market for a gun I wouldn't buy from him, but like the other guy said, if he's giving me a deal it would probably become a moot point.

You're older, right? Different generations. I know quite a few who joined just for the GI Bill or the travel and never expected shite to hit the fan on 9/11.

My mom was the generation after him (I think) and after fifteen years her entire perspective of the military from head to toe changed in that time.

She got in loving it, left wanting little to do with it.

Man, all you're doing is trolling for reactions. It's pretty obvious.

The "Randy" trend is slowly turning into the "ST" trend. He and ST have pretty similar posting styles.

Search for "Illuminati", "Petrodollar" and "I don't understand" or, "I'm gonna kill myself" and we'll have nabbed him, good sir.

No they don't. Unless BPM is a deep cover ST alter on VolNation and a host of Bama sites.

I don't want to get too old school philosophical here, but lemme try this with the hope of helping you to understand my perspective.

This is the greatest country in the history of the world ... so far. We are a Constitutional Republic of Laws. We have the Right to Free Speech - thank God. But that Free Speech also comes with consequences. It works both ways - I need not elaborate because I am working under the assumption that I am dealing with a fairly above average intelligent audience here.

When I use the term, "funding one's enemy" it is in the context of "all actions have consequences." Meaning, if you watch a movie in which a movie star is a rabid left wing progressive socialist communist or whatever ... you are indirectly supporting that movie star's political philosophy. Because that person will realize a financial gain from your ratings value or movie ticket and use said financial gain to fund his or her political agenda.

The same is true for many things. In this specific case, if you do business with the people who own this gun shop in Anniston, Alabama, then you are funding his/her anti-Veteran political agenda - among other things.

Another not so obvious, yet far more cancerous, and totally uncontrollable funding which we are all a part of is through our tax system ... our social welfare system basically pays far left wing liberal progressives to breed more far left wing liberal progressive voters. Be they those on the Uncle Sugar's tit (80% of welfare/EBT recipients) or those on the government dole (sic: government employees).

Back to my original post about the douche bag in Anniston, AL who rails against Veterans yet depends on them for his livelihood.

It's hypocrisy gone mad! The country is fricked! The great experiment has failed because we've been brainwashed into believing it's okay to fund our enemies who want to kill us!

I give you the billions and trillions of our taxpayer dollars sent to the Middle East every year. It's the greatest transfer of wealth in the history of this planet. We have zero control over it ... but we do have control over spending money with douche bags like this fricktard in Anniston, Alabama who railed against we Veterans.

We do have control over supporting the Entertainment Industry that shoves more brainwashing bullshite down our throats on a daily basis than there are quarks and electrons in our known Universe.

I raised my kids on one verse. "What you think about, you do ... what you do, you become." And this country has become exactly what the main stream media and the politically correct and the fricking fricktards like a couple of the idiots in this thread have subjected the majority of the idiots in this country to since the '60s.

But it's not too late to turn it around. The Internet is the only place where Free Speech really exists anymore. So why try to stifle it with this bullshite about not letting someone piss you off? Hell, get pissed off. Everyone should be pissed off. frick these fricktards and the horse they rode up on.

When you frick with the Veterans, and many of them are socially liberal but Constitutionally Conservative, many of them Democrats even these days ... but when you frick with the Veterans and call into question the majority of their motivations - especially AFTER we have served - then you're fricking with all of us. And allow me to define "all of us." Not just we Veterans, but also all of our fellow Americans, every fricking dog and cat, every fish that swims in our rivers, lakes and streams, every fricking bug that crawls ... even the assholes who speak their fricktard minds on FaceBook ... you're fricking with all of us.

What you think about, you do ... what you do, you become. It's simple. It's like water. We take water for granted just like we take our freedoms for granted. We open the spigot and we fill our glasses with this crystal clear shining fluid and we pour it into our bodies to survive ... then we don't give it a second thought.

U.S. Veterans think twice about almost everything. Because we've seen so much more, first hand, than most Americans can imagine. We get it. Left or Right, black or white, male or female ... we get it. And more importantly, we know the soldier or marine or flyboy or sailor next to us gets it too.

Sorry the frick for the rant.

Trust me when I say this but: I understand where you're coming from. Witnessing friends die is pretty horrible.

Most people don't have to pick the blood of another man out of their fingernails, and most never will.

Which is why when some fat piece of shite in Alabama says something about Veterans: We have to consider the source.

Most people unilaterally support American soldiers, sailors, airmen and marines and they should. This guy is a retard on Facebook who won't amount to anything, but I'll be goddamned if I miss out on a good price.

That's the American way.

On that we agree.

On marginalizing Veterans who serve in whatever war, or Veterans who serve in peace time, or which Veterans serve with what units ... we may not agree.

The outrage shown to this idiot in Anniston, Alabama is a warning shot to those who feel the need to spread similar vitriol. That's why I totally support the national attention is is suffering from his actions.

What can we do? We fought or supported his right to do so. We can't outlaw it, and I'm feeling merciful this instant.

The most we can do is chortle because he lives in Alabama (the frick would wanna live there?) and move on, man. He'll change his mind to save his business, and that'll be that.

Eh, some of them happen to be contemporary soldiers. Some of this feel this way, and like I said: We can't do anything about it. We can only watch and hope that people understand that servicemembers have little choice in what happens with their careers.

Educating the public is unnecessary because this dude is in a staunch minority.

I need to get some shuteye, man, thanks for the service and have a good one.

I agree w/ SDAR. This guy is a tool who is torpedoeing his own business because he flaps his lips too much. Too busy laughing at his foolhardiness to give enough of a damn to get mad. He's entitled to his opinion, whether I agree with it or not.

Didn't join the military to be called a hero by others, anyway. If they feel that way, great. If not, great. Doesn't change our duty or the mission
