I stay the hell away from politics, the news, and all that stuff. But I am a veteran, and our service men and women are the reason those people can protest in the first place. Those people don't deserve their freedom if they treat my military brothers and sisters that way. It's a damn shame this happens. I'm right with ya on bein' pissed about that. I agree 100%, brother. Thanks for sayin what you did for the servicemembers.

@cort3079 Thanks for your service Cort..I hear ya..Politics and religon are two subjects sure to rile some people up..Be good

Don't believe everything you hear on partisan radio/tv shows. You don't see a connection between the military and economics? Wow. Why are you so angry at the protesters? Are you ignorant of the country's begining? Do you know the history of Boston and the protest? The soldiers who are returning are being disrespected by their government, why? That's what you should be asking. Why are there so few jobs? The protesters are asking these questions.

@MrSmokeGuy ..Well my friend..First off..Protest is absolutely a good thing and no Im not ignorant of the country's beginnings..The founding fathers had nothing in common in any way shape or form with these people....I actually agree with the original premise of the protests but it has really morphed into something completely different..Well considering the defense budget is around 600 billion and change I'd say there sure is a connection to economics..

@MrSmokeGuy CONTD.. All that is actually totally irrelevant to the point I was addressing in the video..Theres no need to disrespect a serviceman the way they did...That was the point of my rant..Trust me, Im no friend of the government...Whats the solution? I havent heard anybody discuss that..Including the politicians..If anything..they should be on the front lawn of the White House..Not on Wall Street

Hello

Great video, love the rant. Those bums are doing the same thing here in NS this week. Most of those people have never left school yet.

PS. Love the hat, no matter what.

Cheers

Mark

@NEsmokes Tell be about it,I'll give you an example,we have to wear a crash helmet on a motorcycle by law,but if you are of the cloth head gear brigade then you don't have to wear one, if I decide not to wear a crash helmet I get fined,if I happened to be of the other persuasion I wouldn't get pulled at all.Hmmmm something wrong here.

Our country,our laws.If I went to the USA I would have to abide by your rules regulations & laws.If I go to Turkey,I have to live by there laws also.Right?

[MrSmokeGuy]

How is it that people are allowing active military to lose their homes? Attacking the protesters distracts from demanding the answer to the questions.

[MrSmokeGuy]

@NEsmokes Don't wall street fat cats control the political discussion by the donation of billions to political campaigns? Do you know who holds cabinet positions? I think you are allowing the "morphing" of your opinion through the corporate controlled media. Attacking protesters and pitting people against each other distracts from the answers to the questions being asked. Who is benefiting from your taxes? Why are vets homeless? Why are pensions being cut? Why are companies moving jobs overseas?

@LightYerPipe I know what you mean brother..Theres no more majority rules..Now we pander to special interests and small select groups..Going backwards if you ask me
