RE: Patriotism, an Abomination
THANK YOU!!!! As a PROUD Marine Corps wife, I was disgusted at this person's post. When that person said that our Flag means horrible things to children in foreign countries, that just goes to show how truly uneducated the author of that post REALLY is. It's people like that who believe everything mainstream media puts out there, when in reality they NEVER ONCE report about all the great things our men and women in uniform have done and continue to do. They NEVER report how greatful the people of those foreign countries are to have our military's support and defense from true terrorists. It's because of our four fathers and those who serve today that idiots like that use and abuse not only their freedom of speech, but take all their freedoms for granted. I usually remind people who have such reservations about their country, they are free to leave any time. If they're not happy with where they're at, they can pack their $h!+ and find somewhere else to call home. I could go on and on about all the uneducated statements in the previous post, but I'll close with this. I try not to be too political on my page, I try to keep things fun and lite, but your comment deserves a huge thank you! Hope you check out my page and know that because of your response to this ridiculous post, I've decided to follow your page. HAPPY 4th OF JULY MY FELLOW AMERICAN!

Most Decorated Marine, two time Medal of Honor, General Smedly Butler would disagree. Many Infantry would also.
And much more dead innocent citizens would disagree too.
Guess why overseas terrorism was born?
Such ignorance. Do you know why the Marines were created? Do you know where the term "Leather-neck" came from? The Marines were formed to protect trade ships from Muslim nations that captured the ships and demanded ransom for them. At first we paid, but the ransom that they were demanding grew higher, and so we formed the marines. The term "Leather-neck" comes from the thick strip of leather that the marines wore around their necks to prevent their heads from being cut off by these barbaric TERRORIST.
Don't pretend to know shit about history. You don't. The west did not create terrorism. How fucking stupid do you need to be in order to blame the west for a Shiite Muslim strapping on a suicide vest and killing 300 Sunni Muslims? They kill each-other more than anyone else, so take your stupid ass ignorant "The west has created terrorism and the world would be peaceful if not for us" mentality and shove it up your ass.
First of all Thank you for civilized reply friend.
I didn't imply that the west created terrorism in anyway or another but for every action there's a reaction simple maths in basic human natures (and in which I don't support) I hate terrorism and the fact that the media has gotten through times and times again of repeating nonsense that terrorism is just an act done by radical Muslims gets on my nerves so much. Terrorism nowadays has this single stupid look of a bearded guy and bombs strapped around his waist. But what really is terrorism? If you check the dictionary or even Google the term this is what you'll get "the unlawful use of violence and intimidation, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political aims." That term only is enough to think about it just take a deep breath, get over the hate and anger planted and forced down upon you by dictators and regimes who's only concern is to spread hate and war between human beings for their own well being.
PS I'm a practicing Muslim with the number 1 terrorist name and what you stated about Marines and Muslim nations is just hoax.
As for Shiite and Sunni well it's been a while since any terror acts happened between them
Peace, love and Freedom

"how greatful the people of those foreign countries are to have our military's support and defense from true terrorists" wtf?
You really should rethink the reasons for your husband being in a foreign nation. None of what he did was in defense of America.
Why don't you travel to Syria and Iraq and say hello to all the war victims that great US has brought "democracy" to. I am sure they appreciate this kind of generous help to completely destroy their countries because a self-proclaimed hegemony wants to destabilize an entire region and thanks to that we are now welcoming millions of refugees in Europe. Thank you US army, navy etc. Keep up the "great work" of destroying this planet with lies, deceit and murder under the disguise of "democracy" where have you ever brought democracy to?????????????
