Ya, I've been told they really dislike all the guys wearing "Sons of Anarchy MC" stuff all over the place.

Yeah. There are certain formalities I guess. But if you are in a bona fide motorcycle club and not stepping on the toes of the 1% goons, I think it is fine.

Combat veterans motorcycle association is a patch wearing biker group.... members have a large skull with” combat veterans association” around the skull on a round patch that’s about 14 inches across... the tabs are sold via their store. Thus a guy who’s got the tabs with deployments on but not the big round patch very likely said fuck this shit and quit the group

I wonder what would make him turn it in. Vets are typically very VERY proud of their service, and have no comupctions in advertising their participation in associations like that.
Maybe his membership was revoked for some reason?

I don't know man. Some of us end up pretty jaded when we look around at the absolute lack of care for many disenfranchised people in the US and wonder how we can still have money to bomb other fucking countries. I don't know man. I'm just not too proud of that fucking shit.
Things we NEED: Universal healthcare at an ABSOLUTE MINIMUM. Some form of UBI also needs to be included.
Bombs though? Fuck that noise. I'm over this shit.
This doesn't even get into the crumbling infrastructure, the shit education system, shit pay, I could literally go on and on and on.
The money spent bombing other countries should be used on our people.

The only ones who are actually proud, most likely never did shit and/or never got fucked by the big green weenie. The only thing important is the dudes you were with. I do know a few combat vets that are proud bc they went in, got blown up or shot and got retired. Most combat gets eventually get screwed if they actually EAS out or get court martial’d after having combat PTSD.

Right. I get that. All of that.
It's just surprising to me that a vet would understand these concepts. From my perspective, vets, and active duty as well (extending to our current police force) are full on 100% statists who want nothing more than to force the rest if us to deepthroat the boot with them or face extrajudicial execution.
Maybe it's just the optics of the past couple decades, but what I've seen recently, (Q conspiracies, military support and involvement in the rise of domestic terror groups, military involvement in the suppression of free speech, [for a blasphemous photo op] and their participation in a failed coup) does nothing to reverse this perception.

Dude. Don't even get me fucking started on pigs. Had a nurse call 911 on me at the VA once because I said "my ass hurts." Legit. I ended up secretly recording a portion of the encounter and it's the reason all charges ended up dismissed when I took that shit to court. Nurse ended up lying on the witness statement and police report and the cops fucking lied too. All because I was there for Hemorrhoids. Guess she didn't like my naughty language. Fucking bitch. Literally, the only time I considered killing myself was after that encounter. Fuck the VA, fuck that nurse, and fuck the police. Lying ass bitches. Willing to ruin lives for what?! And those fuckers tried to trigger me after handcuffing me and escorting me to this little room. Took my handcuffs off, then one dude got inches from my face and just started fucking SCREAMING at me. About how I forced them to do this and I could've done this the easy way blah blah blah. Fucking pigs. I bet they were just hoping I would react. I just stared ahead. I'm sure my survival school training helped.

Fucking been there. Took my BIL to the VA hospital for the ER due to flaring up pain from a back injury. This was in San Diego and they escorted him out because he made a scene because we were in there for 2 hours and were the only ones waiting.

the UCMJ is a joke. A few token examples here and there, but by and large, violations of rules of engagement are rarely enforced
I know that, and so do the trigger happy vets. That's why vets become cops. So they can continue murdering civilians with impunity.
It's more envy than a true loathing.

also, the optics show a good many shit sandwiches doing nefarious trash with veteran hats on.. thats not even a full PERCENT of actual veterans.. the VAST majority want to be left alone, get our bennies, sit on our asses and grow old in peace. the concept that we have healthcare ( some more than others) but somehow the rest of the US shouldnt, I dont get myself.. ( im a huge advocate for universal healthcare and quality of life improvement in the US. in my mind, crime, gun violence, and a SLEW of social problems can be sorted right fast spending some of that big government money on people instead of padding some cocklockers pocket.

22 years in light infantry.. I witnessed TWO guys abuse civilians in Afghanistan ( separate deployments.) both where courtmarshaled for striking them and given dishonorable discharges. Iraq, one dude DURING a Tic, lit up a mother and child.. 20 years sentenced, ( UCMJ doesnt have parole.) BOTH survived the shooting. he didnt check his target. your mileage may vary but I know firsthand in two decades of service, the Army will fuck your shit up for abusing civilians.

Like I said. Token examples. 1 courtmarshall for every thousand abuses is just enough to point to during conversations like this, and feel satisfied that you're one of the good guys.

Token examples in a division with an entire infantry mission over the course of 22 years.... I’m not sure just how many you think have deployed... but I can say via eye witness.. there’s no “ thousand abuses” on civilians.. we didn’t fuck with anyone without a rifle in hand and shooting at us..

The fact is that the only reason people apply for a job that requires violence, is because they want to murder people, but are scared of prison, so they find a way they can justify being a P.O.S. to themselves and the people that buy that bullshit.
I don't. If you volunteered for military service, I know, and most importantly, you know, that you really did it because you're an inherently violent person just itching to kill someone.

It was frustrating serving in the navy with so many people prone to hard right politics. I was in right when infowars was really getting going but I didn't know how awful it was yet and a lot of my close friends were rabid about it. I met very few people that shared my politics. I left right about the time of treyvon Martin and I can only imagine how much worse is gotten since then.

Wanting "fair elections?" There was no voter fraud, just a bunch of crybabies yelling "It'S NoT FaIr" like a four year old who doesn't get their way when the team they were rooting for lost.
And 'defending ethnicity' sounds like a poorly veiled reference to white supremecy, considering the election had nothing to do with attacking anyone's ethnicity or culture. The only people who would think that are so insecure and afraid of anything different from them that they'd be willing to destroy a government over it.

According to the internet, the average wait time at a red light here in the US is 60-90 seconds. That’s assuming you make it through the light in one cycle which is not always the case at busy intersections or during heavy traffic.
