First of all, I'm not FROM Lawton. I play baseball for a University in Lawton. Second, Fort Hood isn't too far away from Austin at all(where I am from). I have seen the different types of people
And I have every right to call them dumbasses. Every single person I am speaking about joined the military because it was a last resort next to going to prison. If they had the mindset that they were joining the military to protect our country they wouldn't be out killing each other at strip clubs, getting in random fights in bars, and finding other ways to trash the town.
Understand that I'm speaking about a very specific group of people (although a very large group). Both my parents came from military families and I have uncles who have served as well so I'm in no way bashing the military as a whole, but being in the military yourself, you should know even better than I do that there are tons upon tons of 18-21 year old kids that join the army because they have no other options and they are the ones getting into trouble, the ones that have nothing to lose.
If you don't agree with what I'm saying then you are just being naive.

None of what I said was directed at Soldiers. I replied to someone who had referenced the military merely to identify that there was no comparison between what we do in a combat environment and this pharmacist's actions. Then someone came in and said something that I took to be insulting toward the military, maybe I misunderstood the post, but I replied, and here we are.

as I find myself arguing with stab you in the back contractors at work, I always come to the same conclusion with arguments...we all must get the last word in. That's why we keep arguing and arguing. Kind of like our way of not just saying we are right, but you at least heard our side.
Drop the arguing about anything non-related to the topic of this thread. I am not gonna clean it up right now (gotta go play Basketball with my boy), but from post 83 on, we aren't talking about anything besides the pissed off war vet pharmacist (or stories related to such). You guys clearly have points to be made form each other's side. Some valid and some not so valid. Considered yourselves warned though, goto notallvetdeserverespect.com and keep it quiet here.
PS...this doesn't mean to "argue" about the topic either. Keep it as a discussion, it's obvious this effects some of us differently and more personal than others.

We were arguing over the same thing anyway. I'll save you the trouble of having to delete mine. I think I over-reacted to 454NAVYSS's post anyway, which got this hole thing started.
I left only what I thought was relevant to the topic at hand. Edited or deleted the other crap.
