  • She joined the army by choice, right????????????

    So what is the point of this video????

  • Sad that 9/11 was the reason she went to fight in Iraq. Even sadder for the kids who don't get to have their mom because she thinks shes fighting for us citizens safety when in fact these wars have nothing to do with our safety. With all the recruiting material we are giving them it appears as though it is the exact opposite.If this woman came back and is losing her shit on her own children then imagine what her brothers in arms are doing to the Iraqi population while fighting with ptsd.Bad

  • @opicss That is really rude.

  • @amazrand >:[

  • sorry but plenty of fathers have done the exact same thing. why is different just becuase she is the mother?

  • You have no idea what it is to be in her combat boots. I do. Unless you have served and have a family, there is not way you can understand the torn loyalties and love and the sacrifices of all military families, single parent or not. Get off your couch, stand up to the plate and serve so someone else can stand down with their kids. Enlist of shut up. - former 1st Cav medic

  • I called her a whore and for that I apologize. I could have called her a calloused assed gutter slut, a lowlife crater faced mud shark coconut head lovin skank wench - I didnt. - but I did call her a whore and for that I am truley sorry! .

  • yes you ape face. you are monkeys. now go back to zoo.

  • Monkey???? Your seriously stupid and have a bitter since of knowledge if your saying I'M a monkey. The fact that you say that is just because you have nothing better to say about a African American, but remember this..... YOU were slaves WAY before we were :P Your as low and WAY ignorant as those racist fags about in the 1920's and so forth.
