Not A Poem...but something vitally important to me...

American FOOLS!!
Current mood: Absolutely IRATE!!
Category: Absolutely IRATE!! Blogging


There's something i've been trying to keep to myself for the past few weeks. And my anger towards this subject has only grown more...violent every day I hear something else. I've choosen over the years, to be ignorant and niave' to the happenings around me concerning the war. No longer though. Everyone that knows me, knows I've always supported the troops. They know I've always been right there beside my men. I've always been there when they made decisions and choices. Or when they thoguht they couldn't handle it anymore. I've been there to make them laugh when everything seems dark and forbodeing. I've been the shoulder to lean on, and the ear that listens. I've shown them compassion and love. Careing, understanding and kindness. I'll stay up all night and all day talking to them until they know they can handle what's been set before them. I make damn sure they know they have a family to come home to, whether it's blood family or not. So....to get to my main point. Brandon and I were speaking a couple weeks ago. And he mentioned a peace rally, ((which i posted his journal entery about)) and he told me what it did and how much it tore him up inside knowing that those IDIOTS dispised him for fighting for our country. And that, in my mind, was only the tip of the ice burg. Later on...a few other "incidents" were heard about or seen by me, and it only added to my anger. But i've left it alone. Telling myself there's not much I can do to change it. It's just the way things are. But after the bombing in New York of the recruiting office, and the BULLSHIT PROTESTERS in Supieror today, it seems i've lost my patience. If I see any of these IDIOTS...these TREASONOUS BASTERDS....I swear to God I'm going to beat them into the ground. I'm going to show them what it feels like to feel worthless and abused. The saying, "Support our troops, not the war." Has some significant meaning behind it. Yes, Americans are intitled to an opinion. But there is a line between an 'opinion' and treason. There's a line between respect and cruelty. I love Brandon with everything in me. And Robert is my Best Friend. Corey is someone i've always loved deeply and trusted completely. And Max...well Max is my buddy. Anthony is smart and careing. Pat is a leader, though not by his choice. Brent is a softy with a badass exterior. Josh...**smiles** Josh is a southern sweetheart who has a heart of gold. And none...NONE of these men chose to be bashed or accused of murder. They didn't ask to be heros either. They just want to do something right and make something of themselves. I support every damn one of them, every minute of every day. I love every damn one of them and I worry about them 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year!!! The LAST thing i'm going to tolerate or allow is this pathetic, time wasted bashing and abuse!! They work their asses off and try to be the best damn man they can be and then some. So what gives these worthless Americans the right to open their big fat ugly mouths and spit out accusations and hate? What gives them the right to think they are better than any one over in Iraq or training to be over in Iraq? Have they strapped 100 pounds to their backs not including their cloths and guns, and marched miles in blistering heat? Have they gone to bed at 1am after an inpossibly difficult day of insane training and hazerdous conditions only to get right back up at 3am to do it all over again? No...they haven't. And they won't. Hell they couldn't if they wanted to!!! They stand there, on the side of the roads...pathetic lil signs in their hands...screaming out obsenatices. Bashing the very men keeping peace in our country. Granted, we have our own problems here. Yes. I can agree to that. We need to fix our shit too. And we will. But it won't get done standing on the side of the street, threatening military men and cussing out the wives and children off those military men. All your doing is makeing a fool of yourself and YOUR COUNTRY!! So much for the proud and the free huh? So much for disicpline...and grace. So much for support!! Did any one of you ever stop to think that maybe if you took the time to support our troops, instead of taking away grants and money they desperatly need, that this war would end sooner? That less ...**bites lip hard and takes a deep breath** ...that less men would think that there's no hope and KILL THEMSELVES in there barracks after dark falls becuz they feel like failures and that no one cares!!!!!???? You don't ever hear about that do you? You don't here about those boys that couldn't handle the disapproval anymore, and seeing as there's no way out of the miliatry, they chose to end their lives. All becuz their parents or families or friends told them they weren't solving anything. That they were just wasting thier lives away. That they'd never amount to anything!! They go through hell. Some more than others depending on their branch and MOS. But they all go through hell. They bleed, cry sweat, sacrafice everything....lose friends, family...feel amounts of pain that most of us couldn't even fathom. And yet...there are still people out there that chose to waste hours screaming outside of military bases. They still think that bashing these men is doing them some good. That it'll change something. Well it is changeing something. Just think of it this way....every man in uniform that you call a murderer, could very well return to his barracks that night, and decide that maybe...just maybe...he is a murderer. Maybe he made the wrong decision and maybe his family will never forgive him for the things he had to do overseas. And there's only one way to take away that kind of pain...Can you take a guess at what that might be? Ending your own life. So guess what that makes you...the one who put that idea in his head in the first place. That makes you a MURDERER!!! You!! Who threw rocks...who accused and bashed...who degraded a man...who preached about lies and worthlessness. You, in the end...killed a man. Kinda makes you sit and think about how many of those men you've seen walk by you, walked back into their barracks later...only to come back out in body bags. All becuz of your selfish cruelty. But that doesn't matter to you. You can sleep easily at night. You won't be the family that the body is going home to. And in your mind it's one less American in Iraq. Well maybe,just maybe, we should start coming after you. Maybe we should start degrading and badgering you. Then maybe you'll start feeling worthless and maybe you'll realize that you were the murderer. Not that man who worked so hard to become a man. No...it was you all along.

But that's alright. You keep going to your peace rally's. You keep bitching and complaining and accuseing. But you wait...and you'll see. I'll find you...and i'm not military. I don't have any rules or contracts holding me back from BEATING YOU TO THE GROUND!! I support my men 100%. I'm behind them every step of the way. I'll be there whenever they need me. And I'll more than willingly beat the living shit out of any "peace rally" freak who gets in our way. I'm a true American. I'm damn proud of my country and even prouder of My Men that fight for our safety. Maybe you aren't. But that won't matter for long. Fuck you all. I'm tired of your bullshit. I'm shedding tears at night...scared to death of a dreaded phone call...worrying endlessly for my friends and family...while you sleep soundly....without a care in the world. FUCK YOU!! you are a worthless human being. And mean nothing to me but a stress relief. And i'll enjoy every moment of bashing your pride and reasoning into the ground.

I love you. Every one of you. I don't give a damn what branch of the military you're in. I don't care what rank you are. I don't even care what part of the world your in. Brandon, Robert, Corey, Pat, Josh, Anthony, Brent....and everyone else out there. I love you...I miss you...and I pray that one day, when this is all over...I can have you all home safe and sound again together...Until then...you have my faith, my prayers...and my love!! Stay safe for me please?

**salutes** My men my world and my heart!!

    Thank you for this. It's upsetting to see and hear about people who ignorantly demean and degrade the men and women who have sworn to protect this country. It's even more upsetting when you take into account that I and every other service member would willingly give our lives so those people can have another opportunity to protest us. Thank you so much for this.

      You're more than welcome...it just shames me that so many people are ignorant and choose to ignore these actions. And it hurts not being able to do anything to help. But i'm doing all I can...being there all I know how to be. And I send my best wishes and love to you and yours.....thank you is never enough....

    My husband was an Air Force pilot. We support our troops. I am sad, though, to see our young men and woman go to Iraq and Afghanistan. I don't know enough about what would happen if our soldiers came home right now. They feel like they are making a difference, so that's what counts.

      I know it's taken me forever to reply to your comment...but I want to thank you. I agree with you. As long as they feel they are making a difference I say they keep at it. It just makes it hard on the rest of us here at home watching the aftermath I guess....**smiles** Well thanks hun!!!
