Fatigues fatigue

Okay, I want to be fair here so I will say that the blog post I lifted this quote from was titled "Soapbox Time" and opened with "Sorry, but I've got to get this off my chest." This suggests that this guy does not always act/think as poorly as the quote below would lead us to believe.

I can't even stop for gas while wearing my uniform without someone telling me what a horrible job our President is doing "over there".

So be quiet, keep your incredible stupidity to yourself, and stay protected by your betters.

And, if you read the context of the quote you can see he is venting after some rather distasteful remarks against the military and the Commander in Chief, his ultimate boss. OK, I'll grant him that. Furthermore, regardless of his arrogance, I still say we owe him a debt of gratitude for putting himself in harm's way at the behest of our country. But..."keep your incredible stupidity to yourself, and stay protected by your betters" Are you fucking kidding me? You, sir, are no better nor any worse than I. And I would willingly stand before you and say that to your face and were you provoked to a fight, you would probably win in very short measure. And then you know what? I'd stand right back up and say it again. And again. And fucking again. And you know what? That would make me YOUR better because my humanity would remain intact while you devolve into your beast. And even if you never swing at me or even so much as try to physically intimidate me, I still win because I have stood up. In such a case, you would not be my better but I would be yours...until you apologized. Then...well, I'd be honored to shake your hand and thank you once more for your service.
