Soldier mocked for loss of limbs

Post by CelticWarrior »

This makes my blood boil; to think brave young men and women are prepared to lose life and limb for scumbags like these.

Any soldier who is injured or crippled while serving his or her country should be treated with the upmost respect. They are incredibly brave people. Obviously, some idiots do not realise this and think it is just an opportunity for a cheap joke. There are other thinks I would say were I not in polite company (or indeed if those idiots are actually worth the trouble).

good grief, I see these things Nowadays days weather it's this poor chap, or the sad sight in Lutton and wonder where weve gone so wrong. It seems not so long ago during the Falkland Conflict that i was driving a 4 tonner with supplys down to Brize and seeing all along the route people waving and showing thier support...These idiots should be taken up in a 130 and thrown out...sorry folks but this really pees me of.

Don't forget these were children, who obviously have not matured.

When the parents are not around these days, it's hard to whup em'. Besides that's considered child endangerment at least in our country. You and I both know this country is going down the tubes.

Yeah, well I've bought all my guns, ammo, Ranger Handbook and everything else I need. Is there anything I am missing?
