    I have been paying bill while in the Navy, thanks to technology I have been about to so. But I was a man when I went in and I am man once I left. I did handle my addiction and? that help so much. I realize the world is backwards and it is not an institution like the military, that hurts. Go back to school get a degree and continue to help the world, Vets. Bless

    Vets have got to realize its not there country anymore it never was and never will be they did not sign up to serve this country its people or the ideas that it was founded on. Our military was sold a big big lie and they all bought it hook line and sinker. The thought they were going to do a good thing they just made the rich richer and gave them more control over the worlds natural resources? and enslaving humanity. Military men are just a natural resource to be used and discarded at will.

    at about 1:30 the girl got it right. Civilian life is a culture shock. The army and the VA is stretched. Their needs to be a program within the services to make sure the vet is ready to leave. And to check up on them. I’m not saying give money but encouragement and assistance.?

  • 98bigbutt says:

    @DieForTheRich,Hey man. Don’t be a selfish asshole by saying that because the majority? of these veterans come from poor neighborhoods and in the past they were drafted but now they send recruiters to these poor high schools and made them go because they know they’re poor and also know that they don’t want to work in the factories for the rest of their lives and wants to do better and they advantage of that by recruiting.

  • DieForTheRich says:

    fuck them..They? asked for it.

  • 98bigbutt says:

    @dave777blaster,Also you forgot to mention the war in Vietnam. After WWII,it marked? the beginning of the fall of the US Military power that they had in the 2 World Wars. Also you forgot to mentioned the War of 1812.

  • 98bigbutt says:

    @UNTC321,YOU IGNORANT RICH PIECE OF SHIT!!! It’s ok to talk like that when a rich asshole like you who their daddies buys them out of the army to not fight in? the war.

  • 98bigbutt says:

    PLEASE HELP THESE VETS! THEY NEED IT? MAN!

  • Adam Myers says:

    How can you compare american citizens who join the military with the intention of protecting it’s citizens and liberties with people who slaughtered multitudes in the? name of ethnic cleansing. Yes civilians have died in the “war on terrorism” but that is the nature of war it may not be pretty but that is the way of things. It is an ugly despicable thing there is no question about it. Just keep in mind if it weren’t these people volunteering it would be your sorry ass drafted.

  • UNTC321 says:

    The U.S. did 911. The invasions are illegal. From the Nuremberg Trials we know following orders is no excuse. By definition the troops are WAR CRIMINALS.? It can’t be argued otherwise. The Entire Govt. if full of WAR CRIMINALS.

  • Adam Myers says:

    You are ignorant to say such a hateful? thing about the troops. Despite the motives of the people in power the soldiers serve their country for the right reasons and you should be ashamed of yourself for making such an unintelligent hateful comment. Especially when you’re obviously too much of a fucktard coward to serve yourself.

  • UNTC321 says:

    It serves them right. They did not serve their country, they served the UNITED STATES CORP. Two? different things.

  • David Stanley says:

    War on poverty failure
    war on Korea failure
    war on? drugs failure
    war on Iraq failure
    war on Afghanistan failure

    a thats how it is …..this world is ran by the wicked
    (Sir 26:28)? There be two things that grieve my heart; and the third maketh me angry: a man of war that suffereth poverty; and men of understanding that are not set by; and one that returneth from righteousness to sin; the Lord prepareth such an one for the sword.
