Whether one scrubs toilets, or works on the ground in Iraq, every individual contributes to the mission, no matter what it be. My mission is the skies of DC, every unwanted aircraft that I keep out of DC is another potential life that was saved. That guy that cleaned my toilet and kept me happy for another day of work deserves just as much credit. I'm not claiming that I am some hero, nowhere close, but some of our troops out there are, and that get looked passed for things like this. Yes, it was stupid of the Marine, and yes it does anger me that he makes every body serving look bad.
Please just don't think lesser of every other individual, or the Armed Forces as a whole, for one persons actions.
End Rant, End Posting. Sorry if I offended anybody, but thats the way I feel. Keep bashing me if you want, because hey, I can take it. Tomorrow morning when I wake up, it won't matter to me. Plus I have high flow cats coming, and putting the HKS tomorrow, so I'm happy any way

I'm not "quick" to defend the guy, the video has been out for a while now. I believe that it's a hoax, that is the reason I defend him. Media is blowing it up to make it look the worst it can, and I'm against that.
You don't know me, and truthfully, your opinion doesn't matter much, if at all. God forbid I go against something the might Alberto says. Maybe I can toss too much money in to my car, and think I'm the most badass guy on the forum. Me and you are two completely different people buddy.
This thread is useless, can it be closed yet?

I didn't even look at the video, but how did a puppy get thrown off over the cliff turned into a fight between civilians and military and service vs. service? Can someone give me the summary of that? Reading 5 pages of argument is too tiring.

Stop typing crap you think you know about me, especially $hit that is false...but should you still think Im spoiled next meet when you see me come tell me to my face like a man what you think of me. Then we will see who the punk is.
I must have struck a nerve huh? Guess somebody finally found the button that pisses you off. I appologized to everybody for what I said in my earlier posts, which included you, but if you don't want to scrap it and look past it like the rest of the people in here, then by all means...
I'm at every meet.

Eric etc...
I'm not ignorant enough to brand the entire marine corp./armed forces based on the actions of one sick ****. I'd like to believe that MOST of America isn't either.
I'm not sure why you are convinced that no one appreciates the good things the military does, I wouldn’t agree with that. I feel like most of the outrage these days is directed toward the administration and decision makers, not the guys in the "trenches". (This isn’t exactly Vietnam.) I think this time around it’s the Government letting down the Vets again, not the American people. They are being received well by the public, but the Gov isn’t doing much to provide jobs, healthcare, or mental help.
I didn't see a single post about all marines being right-wing puppy killers, but I see a bunch of posts grouping all "liberal" "rainbow chasers" as hippie maniacs. Quit preaching ignorance/making yourself look bad.
I don't judge people based on their uniform and I don't think joining the military makes you any more or less courageous/honorable than one of us "Desk Jockeys". It’s all about the decisions you make and the actions you take. And anyway, I, like many of us mid-Atlantic “Desk Jockeys”, have the honor of working for the corrupt *** Gov't that's sending all your boys overseas, so if I hated the armed forces so much I’d probably be just as guilty as you would be for sitting around the base scrubbing toilets
.
With that said, I'm all for seeing you and Alberto fight it out. I'll document it and take bets.

Again most of my comments originally were impulsive, based on the fact that I was just upset at some of the comments from some of the people here. The world needs "Desk Jockeys", thanks for being a good one

haha damn..I'm not that hardcore anymore. My Z has been getting nothing but neglect. I need more time & money. Maybe this weekend I'll get the headlights fixed and make an appt to get some body work done. Anyway, if nothing else I'll be easily recognized at the next meet or two with no lights.
This thread has officially gone off track.. oops. Oh well, it wasn't productive anyway.
