RE: flag war over disabled veteran abuse... not a flag from us in return.
Who is it? Us vets need to stand together not argue amongst ourselves..
Who is it? Us vets need to stand together not argue amongst ourselves..
Tell me I dont understand “Brother”.. Tell Disabled Combat Vets they dont understand.. its funny thats what you got from this, cause most of us understand more then you believe. Quiet frankly i Believe @ganjafarmer needs to drink some water and drive on and I also go IBprofin or Vagisil which ever he needs. Prepared.
First of all i am a disabled combat vet as well so please dont talk down to me or assume otherwise.. i severed two tours when the iraq war kicked off so it was the real shit, not cell phones, a/c and fast food.. it was burning shit and sleeping on cots in the middle of the desert, eating only mre's for one entire tour and rationing water..
I had only read one post and jumped the gun, i appologize for that.. i have since gone back and read more.. this is something i want no part of.. i was under the impression someone was trolling veterans but now i realize this is none of my business.. they are both my friends but i dont have a bone in this fight.. sorry i said anything at all..
Would never talk down to you but will defend what original post said before edit I assume?. If you felt I was talking down to you. I may not have been there where it all started but I damn sure earned my purple Heart with every bomb that blew me up! I been in the shit too, so lets not compare dick sizes. Cool?
You trolled me for trying to support what i thought was a fellow vet, his words are very sneaky and i was half in the bag when i read it so he tricked me.. he is someone i had talked to quite a few times in the past and had no reason to believe had stolen valor.. i find that kind of thing unexcusable and pathetic!
However, you did talk down to me "brother," and i think u knew exactly what u were doing. You made snarky remarks that i dont appreciate at all.. You assumed i wasnt a disabled combat vet (like you), you assumed i have never been blown up (like you). You assumed you knew what metals i have had pinned on my chest and then you proceeded with dick measuring comments.. a wise man once said "don't assume because it almost always leads to disappointment"..
i admitted i spoke before i knew the whole story and said sorry for that. That is why i went back and read more and decided to edit my post, so more people wouldn't attack me for a drunken mistake.. my original post talked about people not understanding vets and having a "fellow vets" back (i stand up for my brothers in arms) but after i realized what was going on i said i didn't want any part in this..
I have no issues with u at all but when someone talks down to me its in my nature to attack first which sometimesgets my ass in the hot seat..
Maybe u should try a different approach next time and try explaining the situation and maybe i shouldn't comment whilest drunk and before understanding the entire situation..
I think tensions were high and we both mispoke here.. cool?
If I was talking down to you it would have been alot different im an asshole by nature and would have spoke to you the same way whether I knew you were a disabled Vet or not talking bout standing up to those who dont understand. I agree Tensions were/are high but this shit is petty... And I as well want not further involvement in the conversation got my own shit to deal with.. smh
Agreed.! And that drama is fuckin toxic.. i usually dont see shit like that happen on steemit, i hate i got sucked into it... im an asshole by nature as well so i can respect that.. lol.. take care man..
And as well have no issue with you @moderndayhippie forgot to type that sorry bout that.
No worries man.. sorry im a drunk asshole sometimes lol..
And an United military veteran organization caught abusing their brothers... Sad.
I'll pray for you.
And I'd expect that behavior from the westboro Baptist Church. Not from "United military veterans"
Shame!
I actually have honor and was raised better...
@rakkasan84 is now retaliating against innocent veterans.... And the abuse and evidence grows.
This is the owner of the United Military Veterans of steemit. And the UMVbot.
So.... I'm. Leaving this. What is your thoughts? How does this make you feel?
I'm not going to fight. No flags. But how should. I proceed?
This is something i realize i want no part of..
The truth is an ugly thing. No action is allowing this behavior to continue.
The actions of the Veterans? To attack the disabled and now innocent members? It will not be forgotten. And is a sad day.
I don't know enough about what is going on to partake in this and the truth is I don't like to indulge in drama, i have my own shit to deal with in life..
I try my best to respect everyone and I have no reason to argue with anyone, especially fellow veterans..
It is understandable that these veterans got mad when they believe that someone has lied about military service and used it to recieve upvotes and support from other veterans believing u too were a veteran if in fact u are not a veteran. I can understand the anger because that is unexceptable, pathetic and a slap in the face to everyone who has served.. However, I do not know u or ur situation so im not willing to condemn u but also not willing to stick my neck out for u..
You can blame me for inaction but the only thing that will "fix" this is the truth.. "The truth shall set you free" and I am sure if you take a more honest approach and apologize (if in fact you manipulated people) then this could all go away rather quick.. Veterans get mad quick but they get over shit just as fast.. if u dont want to take that approach then quit stoking the fire, just leave the group, delete the people u have issues with, stop communicating with the group and by next week everyone will forget about it..
That is the best advice I have, sorry its not what u are looking for, but if what they say is true then u dug your own grave and now u must lay in it.. time to pay the piper and all that stuff..
Good luck and i hope u choose the right path..
Never made myself out to be a veteran and have never been paid for my community service.
I've never scammed a veteran and am guilty of promoting UMVbot and the Veterans community.
The day before this blew up this guy was my favorite friend. And next morning this.
I have veterans that can attest to my heart! And this was silly drama have to blow up and it's over.
Moved on and continue to be me.
Well in that case I am sorry you had to deal with all this drama and it feel sad it happened with a veterans group, they are normally the most understanding people I know. I am happy you have moved on and are just leaving this in the past, that is the best way to go about things like this.. Negativity is never worth it.. Take care.
