  • I have 13 friends in the military. 12 are Marines and one sailor. This video shocks me in the treatment that so many of our nations's veterans receive. Our veterans deserve the best we can give them. OORAH!

  • 1:15 HEY O-Fucking-Reilly..... WE SPEND 22 BILLION A FUCKING YEAR ON AIR CONDITIONING FOR THE TROOPS IN IRAQ AND AFGHANISTAN

    I WONDER WHO HAS THAT CONTRACT??? YOU PIECE OF SHIT

  • When i was 21 I was in the same boat as Ryan. I'm now 32 still trying to at least get VA health coverage. It's not only That asshole O'Reilly isn't the only one causing problems. Maybe the VA should give hiring priority to all of us veterans. I am proud to say I served when the time came only to get dumped on by the country I was fighting for.

  • Nice watch. Why don't you pawn it? What is more important to you survival or a watch?

    This is so ridiculous. The only veterans who should be complaining are disabled veterans. Are you going to tell me that you're too war beaten to survive on your own? You're a wuss. Get out of our army. There is no room for pansies.

  • that guy looks like a grownup version of venomfangx

  • where is part 1 ? why did he get out ? most of the military doesn't want to lose the people

  • Bill O'Reilly is an ass. I cannot respect that man anymore and I'm embarrassed that I ever did.

  • I call front seats on the revolution.

  • pay bill 9M a year for what? He doesn't even worth a penny. He owns the world for his years of ignorant and poisonous remarks. How can anyone imagine how stupid those people who hires bill? Folks, Boycourt bill along with his show. Let's put him out of business and end him from spreading his trash!

  • damn. i'm surprised at the ignorance of some of these comments. some people just assume that everyone else lives in the same comfort that they live in without considering the facts.

    bill is one of the biggest assholes on this planet.

  • Thank you I appreciate your comment!

  • for you idiots wondering why he's not scruffy looking READ THE DESCRIPTION

    then you'll understand.

  • man this dude set himself up for failure. iknow because he use to work for me. he refused help from everybody who was willing to help while he was in the navy.

  • All of the homeless I have seen were not clean shaven, & wearing designer sweaters. If they guy is truly homeless, he didnt think about it 2 well before he presented himself on TV. He should have shown up looking like shit if he wanted more sympathy. How do U know he actually served? Do u believe everthing u see on TV. I am sure u pick & choose what u care to believe like 90% of the TV public. Remember, it doesnt matter what u think of me, it only matters what I think.

  • To my knowledge the guy was staying in a vets only shelter and decided he wanted to look presentable before he was filmed.

    Not that you care.

  • Well, he didnt use his head. If he used his head he would have turned up as dirty as shit and he would have gotten alot more pity.

    I dont care. If he is homeless, that is his problem. I got mine, get yours. Whiners. The world has not given me enough. If he didnt want to kill anyone, why did he join the military. Another person minus a few brain cells. Oh wowas me. I am being shit on. Buy a fuckin umbrella.

  • Like I said you don't give to shits about anyone other than yourself.

  • Absolutely, I dont give a shit about anyone else because it is not productive. If he cant take care of himself, he should go back home and live with his parents so they can pick him up. They are the ones that brought him in this world and they didnt do a very good fuckin job

  • You might want to try attending church.

    It might help you with the anger you feel towards your mother.

  • I'm an athiest sorry. More wars started over god than any other issue.

    Mom, no anger towards here, just disgust. But if you want her you can have her. I think when you figure her out you will try to give her back, but I wont take her. But you can save her if ya want. I think it is like pissing in the wind. Youll get it on your face.

  • I know a guy who claims he doesn't hate his mother.

    Get a couple of beers in him and he starts talking about the old bitch.

  • oh and by the way...both of my parents are not with me....I was basically all alone...I dont blame anyone for me being homeless...I never stated that...all I said was that THERE ARE HOMELESS VETS OUT THERE

  • the guy does not get it...I am the guy in the video and I appreciate you support...I am no longer homeless

  • dude... I take my hat off to you!

    Peace from Ireland!!

  • thank you!

  • Glad to hear that.

    Best of luck to you man.

  • welll why would I show up dirty....to proove Bill O right ...that I am fucked up in the head?

    I went in presentable because I was constantly looking for work EVERYDAY

    why dont you ask the guy that was in the video...and was homeless....me

  • thank you for what you said. it means a lot to me. i am sick and tired of hearing people who dont understand what you had to go thru... i dont claim to know either BUT AT LEAST IM NOT PRETENDING LIKE I DO. i support you and youe cause... thank you

  • hey dipshit there are many homless vets homless doesnt mean being on drugs letting yourself go you can shave in a gas station some people stay in hotels,motels twice a weak dont buy fox news crap you dont think that guy is true well there is thousands of storys the same that r true they fought for us now you spit on them

  • It looks as though he has shave recently. Homeless, right.

  • Hey man, how about you read the description for the video. It says he WAS homeless. Now he lives at U.S. Vets in transitional housing. So he has shelter, and he's trying to take care of himself and get a job, you're not going to find a job being dirty, and unshaven. Just read the description next time. Take care.

  • But the Title says, "Homeless Vets" Sounds like a present situation not a past situation. There are quite good laundry mats and sinks on the streets, that is why he is homeless and so manicured dont you think?

  • Ohhh i get you, hahaha. Take care man.

  • Then where did he get the nice clothes for the interview???????????? duh

  • unfortunate that American government does that to their soldiers but it is well known, history repeats itself again,the Viet war is well known for the way they discarded the american vets who have emotional, physical or mental problems like trash. the sad thing to is that im not in or from America and we know about it..

  • This really too stupid to comment further.

  • I KNEW THIS WOULD HAPPEN...I WAS AGAINST THE IRAQ WAR FROM THE START BECAUSE I KNEW THAT WE WOULD HAVE ALL THESE PROBLEMS...it's sad...THE MILITARY PRAYS ON WORKING CLASS AND POOR BOYS TO FIGHT WARS FOR THE RICH..and when it's over, THE VETERANS ARE TREATED LIKE GARBAGE WITH CRAPPY HEALTHCARE...fuck IT! how could people be SOOO EVIL??

  • I go to the VA and it sucks soooo bad...do not get me wron I am thankful to have it in case something happens...but I just wish that I could catch a break...I do work now and I am not homeless anymore but it is really hard still without family

  • I dont know what to say... This is a discrase on so many levels.

    Its not only a problem in the US, im from britain and 12% of our homless population is ex forces.

  • Well that homeless guy sure had nice clothes. I guess he goes down to the laundry mat so kinda a fucked up labeled film. Kinda well groomed. I would say the dude has a nice place to stay looking at him. To cut a long story short, "he dont look fuckin homeless to me"

  • rally...because thats me....I was homeless....I HAD to look NICE because I was looking for work....and through MY hrd work and dedication I left there on my own because they where not helping me...that place took our money and they wanted us to stay there...I didnt want to complie with their rules so I got kicked out(I was not back before 9:00 PM a few times) I worked hard to get out from being homeless and so if you don't like that you are just as much of an asshole as Bill O

  • People respond thru their senses. If u stink, u probably dont shower, have deoderant, take pride n yourself or a combo of all 3. If ur trying to make a point, do what it takes to get your point across just as u said u did. If u buy a car, & u want a good price, dont wear a Rolex & go n wearing a 3 piece suit. With him looking as he does, his story is not believable. As 4 your accessment of me, Opinions r like assholes, everybody has 1. 4 Orielly, it's his show. If u dont like it why watch?

  • O'reilly is such a tard. The government can't do anything about veterans who have drug and mental problems??? Of course they can. Of course they should. And, O'Reilly actually thinks people who live in a homeless shelter are not homeless????

    What a fucking tard!

    He should stick to what he knows--sexaully harrassing his employees.

  • what is is happening to this guy is disgraceful, i'm english and alot of our vets our suffering just like he is. its a simple fact, once a serviceman or woman has reached or gone past their expirery date they are cast out. i'm glad that you put, but you need to find a way to force people to sit up and take notice.

  • That's a shame, these people fight so hard for our country, and we can't do shit for them.

  • I may have met this guy when I was stationed on the Carl Vinson.

  • Oreilly usually is ususally very sensible..but not on this topic. I've watched CSPAN meetings on benefits for vets be decreased over the years...these kids deserve benefits..all their lives. Fighting causes mental illnesses and we are responsible for them....if our stimulus plan funds go anywhere it should be there...but don't get rid of FOX because...if we do it's a step towards Shariah Law and communism....CAIR wants that.

  • eaglezfam if a billion of us poor and middle class people were to realize that we could do more in a month, then we wouldnt be so easily manipulated (like bill o) by a handfull of fat lazy rich people. they will never serve a meal in a soup kitchen they will never serve the country in combat and they usually dont serve time in jail when they get caught in criminal acts. they expect to be served, not vice versa.

  • That's what makes people like JFK so awsome.

    He had money coming out of his ears and he volunteered for danger filled combat missions.

  • These ENTERTAINMENT NEWS celebrities will never know what it's like to serve for this country.

  • bill makes 12 mill a year thats why he dont give a shit if the republicans think bill o gives a shit ..grow up

  • I'm wondering with all these siss towards homeless vets how o'reilly hasn't been killed yet

  • I meant diss

  • well if you want someone to do the deed i need 3 things from you:

    1 - a plane ticket to the us state that he lives in

    2 - a high powered rifle

    3 - his address

    we can discuss my fee later

  • what the hell are you doing saying that in the public comments area!

  • its called a joke mate, it was not meant to be serious. anyone who would be stupid enough to believe that someone would actually propose killing someone for a fee on a site like youtube needs their fucking head examined.

  • I know I was playing along

  • its hard to tell over a youtube comment, but i'm glad you can understand sarcasm... UNLIKE alot of morons on this site.

  • ha, i love it when he says "that guy is an asshole, i can tell you that much."

    Fuck Bill O'reilly!

  • Actually I am doing a lot better now...but not thanks to US Vets they wanted to take govmt money and our money and they are being investigated by the FBI right now. I got a good job and I am very thankful for all of your support...BUT That does not mean I am done fighting for the rights of veterans and the people equally. Something must be done about what is going on in the world and it is up to us "the people" to do something about it!

  • true that it is up to the people we could do more in a month than a president in a year as long as we unify to stand for something we believe in

  • Man I hate Bill O'reilley!

  • Don't blame O'reilly. Fear and Cowardice make people do things they don't fully understand. He's the poster boy for that. We need O'Reilly to be a living example of how NOT to be.

  • So the government uses them for violence and take overs and then they just spit them out in an even more worse place than what they were in before?

  • I hate people who are assholes to veterans. Geez! Grrr! I hate the public!!! lol

  • Interesting...I spent 6 YEARS onboard the Carl Vinson, but I made something out of my life when I got out! Yes, I had to work for what I have now! I found out, back in the early 90's when I got out, that people generally did not give a damn if you were in the military or not! If this guy is sleeping under bridges, then he learned nothing from being onboard the Carl Vinson! Oh, and he has pretty good looking watch for someone who sleeps under bridges!

  • It hurts just thinking about all these men who go over seas fighting not only for their lives but for others. I'm not american but even I feel the shame. The American gov. needs to step it up.

  • I HOPE AMERICA WAKES UP AND REALISES THAT THEIR BRAINWASHED SHEEP FOR THE RICH TO LIVE OFF OF... We are all i a very bad world where morals are extinct, our starving fellow man is ignored and where our governmentscontrol the people. The Founding fathers of your country fought so that the people ruled and not some global elite hypocrisy!

    For god sake bush is related to nearly every british monarch, AND NOT AS DISTANT ME TO YOU???????

  • You are the one who sounds brainwashed. People disagree with you so THEY are brainwased? You sound like a Bushy yourself. If someone disagrees you call them a name. My mommy warned me about people like you when I was 5. They had better grammer of course...

  • YOU OBVIOUSLY BANGED YOUR HEAD WHEN YOU WERE FIVE AS WELL...HA..

    Its you who people are disagreeing with and disgusted by. My comment has had lotsa of thumbs up, and YOURS LOTSA THUMBS DOWN. YOU DEFINE IGNORANCE- WHEN SOMETHING STARES YOU IN THE FACE YOU STILL IGNORE IT!

  • are you serious? what a stupid insensitive observation...

    1# its probably fake,

    2# is the fact that he's homeless and the question isnt he has a watch so he's probably fine, he's staying in a shelter!

    3#if you realy help the homeless/poverty and don't just throw money at them you'd realise that every privelaged man on earth should be helping the less fortunate. YOU HAVE A COMPUTER, "A WATCH" AND A COMFORTABLE SURROUNDING SO SHOULD YOU BE CLASSED AS A GREEDY IGNORANT PIG?

  • nicely put

  • no answer... i thought so!

  • If you had ever served you'd know that they do not discharge you unless you get a series of classes explaining your benefits. The guy in the video said he used those benefits but lost them because he wanted to go to school, not get a full time job. He made a choice. HE gave up his benefits. He also chooses to live on the street with nice clothes.

    My point is this. He CHOOSES not to use the benefits provided him. Don't blame the US for his bad choices. He acts like a victim.

  • so if a veteran decides he wants to get an education, the government has no responsiblity to help them?

  • How the GI Bill works is you choose it, then pay in. The gov't then gives you a monthly checked based on # of credits. The gov't provides you the oppoprtunity, you need to use it. They can't make you use your benefits. Should they also enroll you in school and help w/ your homework too? The gov't is bad, but not ALL bad.

  • obviously you know more about this than me. it just seems that they should continue giving you benefits, i didn't mean they should pay for your whole education and everything

  • for o'reilly to question the sanity of humans returning from war, begs the question.

    it goes along my argument that insanity plea to get out of jail, begs the question.

    no human goes around killing people. of course you're going to be destabilized if you're forced to kill people. they need to transition all of these servicemen back into society. I'd say a month back on base before returning home. and an outpatient program lasting 6 months. who's going to help them? their family?

  • Id go on billo show and try to get himto fight just so I could beat his ass on national television

  • please do it, you'll be number 1 on here

  • Jesus and the Bed!

    Before the word "sleep", they used the word "dead". Raising the dead, meant raising the sleeping

    Relating to our history, not being aware of, not recognizing the connection/association between Jesus and the mass utilization of beds, would be like not being educated concerning Henry Ford and the mass utilization of cars

    The bed is evolutionary medicine, compensating for the hight of the trees

    Jesus was persecuted for teaching evolution. For sharing.

  • bill is a bastard who claims to love america but not americans.

  • Bill is a fucking perverted dibshit. (and anyone who knows the details of his sexual harassment suit will know what I'm talking about.)

  • John Edwards is trying. Bill O is the biggest asshole in the world. He is way overpaid for what he does which is to insult people. Please boycott Fox News - pass that on to everyone that you can.

    I am sure families out there could adopt a veteran until they could get on their feet. If you are interested or have any ideas or thoughts, please email me. Lets do something!

  • Most returning vets are slightly mentaly ill, I served 4 years Marines and most guys, even the ones you think are chill, will bust out and say something completly retarded like "I cant wait to kill somebody" or just crap like that.

  • And that is what you get for "serving" your country, dont buy into the bullshit people. The game is rigged.

    Best of luck to that guy, thats bullshit.

  • well that guy is me and i am trying real hard to get on my feet honestly i am, i work for an insurance company now and have my own place, my girlfriend has been a lot of support for me so far but i still have a long way to go.

  • Keep your head up. All the success....

  • I wish you the best, and thank you!

  • Comment removed

  • Bill Oreilly deserves to meet this guy...and he deserves to be forced to sit down and shut up (like he likes to bully guests on his show) and forced to listen to what that vet has gone through, and how his hopes were dashed and how promises were broken and what he has do deal with now, and also how he feels about what Billo says about people like him. And then the guy should kick Billo in his tiny package and walk out the door.

    I'd hold him down if I could see that happen.

  • Bill thinks hes all hot shit and that he runs the country, by acting as if he is the one getting the bill passed even though he is f'n useless

  • I wonder if ever he mentioned that it was his beloved republicans in congress that opposed that new GI bill.

  • If i saw bill O'Reilly i would love to punch him in his face .

  • some really fuck up shit ---dam --

    those who fight for our country can't even get a helping hand --form their own government--wtf--The source Bless us all

  • This is good but I wish bravenewfilms would stop reusing fox clips over and over.

  • Wait a minute, O'Reilly, mental illness was addressed by President Reagan, remember?  He cut government funding and put them on the streets.

  • dont forget Israel loves you lol

  • i never said that ....

  • I was refering to the guy in the video...

    guilty conscious?

  • i am the guy in the video....sooo yeah...i never asked for any money...all we(the vets) are asking for is our place back in society..all the illegal immigrants are are taking jobs that would have been filled by idiots but since all of us left to fight in this war...for people like you....the idiots moved up to take our jobs....even though we dont beleive in this war...we still fight it for you....we still die for you

  • "...for people like you..."

    LMFAO!!!

    How much Combat have you seen from the inside of an aircraft carrier?

    How much PTSD did you get from scrubbing the toilets?

    Listen Navy guy, I have more time patroling the streets of Iraq than you probably have in the NAVY...

    emshi sharmootah... 2 f*cking funny

  • Hey asshole he never claimed to have PTSD.

  • let me guess, you were scrubing toilets on a carrier with him instead of fighting AQI on the ground?

  • Nope.

  • lmfao...

    scrub them toilets 'seamen'

  • Enjoy your next T.O.D. and the dozen that come after it.

  • ALSO!!! this place called U.S. Vets kicked me out because I would not find work withing 30 days, they wanted me to have a full time job but i also wanted to go to college but they said NO so they basicly wanted me to be stuck in this situation so i could not move out on my own and get a good job instead they wanted me to work for a security company at 9.00/hr .ALSO they are under Federal Investigation for using OUR tax money for themselves and also charging us rent which is called double-dipping

  • which is wrong because they where getting funding from the Department of Veteran Affairs a per diem of 36.00/day for over 100, also they made us get food stamps and general relief so we could give that to them too which was about 400 per month then also pay them rent

  • if you do the math they are making over 16 million dollars a year. So you see people such as myself can not find a honest group of people that will help and wont fuck us over too.....many others where kicked out because we wanted to go to school too.... so until you decide to be PRO PEACE and NOT ANTI WAR this will keep happening and no one will want to enlist because they will see what happened to us.

  • 16 million a year 4 any group trying to do something 4 people,as if they didn't pay tremendous bills and rent etc as all of us;

    it's really nobody's biz how much $ they make as if u were the one making it you wouldn't be bothered by others whining,listen life is tough,our parents or our choices,sometimes it's hard,put your mind to use,if u r sober &

    have an ok attitude,you'll make it,being bitter & pointing the finger won't help,i help homeless i used to cook 4 350 of them some were hopeless..

  • Navyman,i was married to a navyman,i know how it works but you can add many ALSOS of things that r wrong with ANY institutions ran by MEN oh coincidence,there r problems i just don't like the fact u sound as if they did it on purpose & instead of using your anger 2 turn things & help,u r after embarassing the whole group of people i find that unfair ALSO finding a job in 30 days IS POSSIBLE & u should adapt 2 a situation that is yours,w/out

    family u must start from jobs u don't like then study!

  • you are a fascist asshole

  • no,U r an ignoramus,i help MYSELF,cook for homeless people and donate,YOU just feel sorry 4 them not doing anything probably,WHY a guy like that is homeless in a country with all the options,something's fishy,oh maybe a democrat anti-war who enlisted was his mistake

    since military is voluntary!& him saying "war is not a good thing"oh really?why enlist then the military exists to train you to go to war,what a fool, as 4 WAR it saved Europe & th

    world from the nazis,from Imperial Japan

    &Alqaida

  • Well that was a nice little rant but the fact remains that the guy is homeless and a vet.

  • grazon:OK,absolutely,but thanks 4 pointing the

    simple fact;but any class of person might be homeless and it's their personality,not the fact that he's a vet,& that's the unfair part that they point to that as if oh here a VET can be HOMELESS?? well,yes,& u will get medical insurance if u go ask 4 it,they won't knock on your door,but here is his little message against WAR;but count homeless people most are NOT vets,SO..the power is in your hands;he served only 2 yrs or so then finds no one? WHY!

  • I actually "spoke" with the guy over youtube.

    He was a foster kid whos' gurdians saw him as a pay check.

    He joined the military because he had no other choice.

  • I understand, and it further proves my point:

    a special situation,he was really homeless before joining;thanks to 2 irresponsible persons making babies without depth,love commitment.THAT is the wrong reason to join the military and it is NOT the only option,many people were foster children,they chose to study or train 4 other jobs!but it's unfair to now say "War Is Wrong" of course,it's not a "good" "nice" thing,however sometimes THAT'S the option,(as you say),he will get help!,maybe some of u?

  • You don't feel sorry for him.

  • Absolutely i do!and for all homeless people! Since i was a kid,when i saw homeless wow my mom had to consoled me my heart breaks!but i don't like the opportunity people take to bash

    an institution who have helped the world so much,because special situations,i've learned that veterans(as all homeless)can get help(i cook 4 350 homeless in Los Angeles!) AND i've taken some in thru the years myself(& also payed 4 often what became a mistake,being robbed,some who could hide a heroine addctn etc..so

  • SO what's your problem then?

  • We should try to get that guy on Bill's show some how(maybe just tell the producers he's a conservative pundit or something) and let him give Bill a piece of his mind!

  • Anti-War here. The day any vet gets fucked on their hospital, or rehab treatment etc. is the day "the war", needs to come home! Even if we could leave Iraq, and Afganistan, what benefits/jobs are available for all the vets back state side? Every single vet who makes it home, should be GIVEN a job of their choice. You should get as many days to choose a job, as the # of days you served; like an unemployment benefit, till you start working. YOU did the work, taxpayers need to foot the bill.

  • something like this shouldn't even be an issue.

    with all the flaws of our country, taking care of our brothers, sisters, mothers, fathers, aunts, uncles, sons, daughters, and friends in the military (active and non-active) should not be one of them especially for as long as it has been.

    WTF?!!

  • oh my god the guy is on a vid explaining his drama,but he couldn't figure out how not 2 b homeless? are you people dumb? no, so then y not see something ELSE is the problem here!the vets HAVE all the help needed but if they were crazy to begin with,(i would avoid being drefted,sorry,wouldn't you?!& today,is VOLUNTARY so don't like war?DON'T ENLIST!)not all people r in shape enough 2 go get THE ASSISTANCE some r anti-social,hard to catch they cannot be forced!i know about this i VOLUNTEER 2 help!

  • ok the guy in this video just so happens to be me....second any one who says they are anti war is dumb....I am Pro-Peace....that would be the correct term if you have a negative attitude negative things will come...third as grazon said I was a foster child my parents are fucked up in the head and your right they should not of had me...so if you want to go ahead bash me all I am doing is speaking up for the other thousands of homeless veterans that cant speak for them selves

  • bill o reilly could go kill himself

  • He had his sweater on a hanger. How many homeless use hangers?

  • The kind that are staying in a half way house.

  • I am not in a half-way house.....I don't use drugs...never used drugs....I just don't have family...I was adopted at 11 by people that used me for a social security check...when i turned 18 i had no choice but to join the navy...

  • Yeah well I'm pretty sure Ryan is living in a half way house.

  • No I am not.....although most of the people at U.S. Vets (the shelter/transitional program I stay at) are coming out of Rehab and prison..I am not.

  • my bad.

    FTR I was defending you.

  • My mistake then...thanks

  • just because i am homeless does not mean I cant wear what i owned while i was in the military...correct?

  • best of luck mate I hope you do well in life , lots of the homeless in the uk where Im from are ex military its shit .

    dont give up hope

  • I like Bill'O, but he really did fuck up on this one. He should man up and Apologize.

    On the other hand What the hell happend to this dude that caused him to only do a 2 year bid. Did he lose a finger, drug pop positve,go Awol? Fuckis the deal?

    Same as the first I smell sumthin fishy. If you fucked yourself up while you were in, KISS MY ASS if picked up a drug habbit when you left ..."KISS MY ASS AND GO SUCK YOUR OWN D..K.If Not Then say so in yur video.

  • Why did this "homeless vet" get out after only 2-1/2 years? If they're wanting to extend tours of duty and bring soldiers back 2 and 3 times but this guy somehow got out in only 2-1/2 years (and didn't say why) I'm calling dishonorable discharge. You get a dishonorable discharge you DO NOT get the red carpet treatment when you get out! Pay the price. This doesn't seem legit to me by a long shot.

  • I have a general under honorable discharge...second highest...as for why I got out....don't worry about it...I was accused of something I did not do...there was no formal investigation...I have my full VA benefits...I am not asking for anyhting...I am letting people know what is happening to veterans

  • Some people will always slip through the cracks of the system. For every one homeless vet there are 1,000 well taken care of vets. Being "homeless" how can you regularly respond to these posts on YouTube? Someone allows you to use their computer for this but won't help you find shelter? You have access to YouTube but never saw or heard of Bill O'Reilly, one of the most well-known news anchors? Like I said, something is not legit with this.

  • I read that at 18 yrs old you had "no choice but to join the Navy" and were adopted at 11? Problem youth? Juvenile legal issues? Is that why you had "no choice"? Jail or Navy? Otherwise you could have gone to college on student loans, lived in a cheap apartment, found a roommate, and worked part time. Or no college and just worked. That's what people do. There's ALWAYS a choice. You weren't forced into anything unless the law had something to do with it (which is why you were discharged).

  • Maybe he can't do these things. Not everyone is you.

    Bill has a serious problem actually listening to anyone, but himself. He is a total idiot really.

  • My adoptive parents where given a social sec. check each month for my college...but they spent it...when I turned 18 they said either I go to college (which i could not afford...either could they) So either I joined the military...or left the house....I had no choice...and when i got out I had no where to go.....sooo no it was not a legal problem...i just have no family...sooo I AM TRYING...its just hard when you have no support like most people have to re-integrate.

  • So the only way to go to college is if someone ELSE pays for it? Come on!! Millions of 18 yr olds go to college on student loans. Payments are deferred until AFTER you graduate and then it becomes just a regular monthy bill. You CHOSE not to do that but instead voluntarily joined the Navy. You said you have FULL VA benefits so you now have money for college. If this is a legit story I wish you the best but don't say you had "no chocie" in the matter.

  • I do have full VA benefits, I am enrolled in Santa Monica College and start this next semester...but none the less it is hard...you know? I could not get the loans because my guardians would not co-sign for them...or else I would have...at least that is what they told me...(my guardians)

  • "the only thing sleeping under a bridge is his brain"

    ...whahh??? Was that supposed to be, like, clever or something? Cause it failed.

  • do you think with all these people coming out of the service and ending up homeless....that anyone else will want to join if it is a chance that may be their fate as well? You people that never been in would not understand the lies they tell us to enlist us...the recruit the poor to fight this war...

  • Now finally we are getting some smart people on this video commenting....I don't want anything from the government...never said I did...I just want a roof over my head....who would not want that?....I have no family so where do I go then??? I am just trying to survive after I served for you people....and this company i trying to tell people what you will see more of when people get out of the military...

  • you are an idiot

  • Why close down the Federal Reserve?

  • What are the chances of all these people being homeless if they werent vets?

    I mean people do make there own choices in life, big choices like joining the military, doing drugs and alcohol, degenerate gambling and many other life altering choices. I do feel sympathy for these people but what can we learn from all this? Maybe its that the military is just one big killing machine and it affects everyone involved in many ways, whether its physical or mentally. Dont join them, bottom line!

  • Well then, the next best thing you can do is find my address and come visit me, i have something for you here. you should come get it.

  • lmao!!!

  • BillO is a complete ass. nothing more than a F-word news lap dog.

  • don't ever say something like that to me again or you will be upset with yourself

  • Save the Planet from the longest running hinderances to human evolution. WAR & DECEIT. Silence FOX NEWS & the ASSOCIATED PRESS. PLEASE.

  • obviously this man IS MENTALLY ILL

  • my wife fucked me over i wanted to make the navy a career...but i found out she was cheating on me so i told her i was going to get her for adultry and leave her....well she did not like that too much so she told the navy that i was beating her...

  • I had no where to go because my pay grade was E-3 when I got out....and I only made 13,000 a year....that was barely enough to survive off of...so how the hell was I suppose to save money to have a home when I got out....oh but I bet you thought we made good money didn't you???!? NOPE 13.000 before tazes...and I had a Car, Insurance, and food payment to spend that money on a year...

  • Someone who has a CAREER in the military makes good money (like my brother). He makes 70k and because of some technicalities had to take a temporary pay cut.

    My brother's in his 5th year. I never said that someone who was in for 2 1/2 years was going to have a good life. Did you have any plans for your future? Can you explain that?

    So what exactly would you say to Bill O'reilly? He would eat you alive. I hate the bastard, but you can't expect anyone to feel sorry for you.

  • even though she had absolutely no bruises i had 3 witnesses to testify on my side .....i was still fucked over ...she said she had pictures but she never showed them to the chain of command....i am currently getting my geeral under honorably ovrturned to an honorable....either way its an honorable discharge just with one i dont get va loans

  • With all due respect, the more I hear of your story, the more it seems like you just fell through a loophole. If all what you say is true and you are who you say you are, there is no reason why this should not be dismissed as liberal propaganda and/or anti-oreilly nonsense. It is not hard to discredit the man, but this case is not representative of all or most of the veterans 'living under bridges.'

  • Look I feel your pain, and you are in an unfortunate position. This is the result of unfortunate circumstances, not of a government turning it's back on you which is what this video is about, no? Just keep in mind that by lending your name and face to their cause, you are endorsing their message.

  • we should of course give more veteran benfits, but its not like society is unfairly against him.

  • i agree i think the nation has turned its bak on veterans i mean 2 n 1/2yrs isnt that much but 4 ppl that have served a long time and have nuffin 2 go 2 its horrible, like if i was in their shoes id feel so betrayed cuz im fightin 4 a country that doesnt even give 2 shits whether im dead or alive..n that sux
