Why do so many people these days hate veterans?

It's not like they really wanted to go to war for unjust reasons.

Whoever graphitized that war memorial should be publicly hanged from the street and left there as a reminder.

It's probably more or less because people don't want to celebrate the fact that the US gov sent hundreds of thousands of men to die for some stupid dumb fukk reason. And people put their hands up and said 'yeah lets do it' after being told that they'd have to go and kill people for their country to protect 'freedom'.

I feel really, really, really sorry for Veterans, only because they were conned into being pieces of meat for people that give zero fukks about them.

Such is life, people dying for stupid reasons, killing for stupid reasons, destroying the world for stupid reasons.

We are humans and we are a fukking monstrosity and poison to this Earth. Fukk the system, and fukk laying down to rot for someone else's monetary benefits.

That being said, if you get drafted, you're going to war whether you like it or not. Not your fault, but you are getting forced to lay down your life for another man and his family while you leave yours to fend for themselves. Pretty uncool thing to do if you ask me.

Yes, it's unfortunate how the US has become world police so we wind up in tangling situation like the Middle East and Vietnam. I think we should just stop and go back to focusing on domestic issues which we have a lot of right now. I don't give a phuck what goes on with ISIS other than protecting our own country from them but that doesn't require invading other countries. I know they can come here and wreak havoc like that couple in San Bernandino. This is another reason we need stricter immigration laws like we used to before the 60's.

There's not. There used to be a lot more people who "hated veterans", look at the public opinion of the Vietnam war.

If this post is serious, my mind is blown at the ignorance.

Surely people in the United States realize the reason they're fighting overseas is 100% for the benefit of the United States, financially and otherwise. I honestly didn't realize people actually bought in to the "stabilise the region, bring freedom to other countries" bull****

just wow

PTSD fraud is increasing to a multi-billion dollar cost to Americans.

-Quality and bravery of soldiers going down
(Wrong people are going into military, also if you see combat you can fake PTSD and get 90% of your pay for life, standard is dropping yearly in what a soldier needs to be made oflol women soldiers)

Wars are fake and staged by the worlds elite for profit
(More terrorists in Africa than ME, but we fund and supply our future ME adversaries which fuels arm sales while buffering price of Oil)

Increasing cost for those wars & soldiers that are outdated and taking Ls like no tomorrow.
(We should focus on nuclear doomsday weapons, drones, & special forces from military academies)

How many wars do we have to lose (Korea, Nam, Iraq, & Afganistan) before we realize that our methods are outdated. Infantry and bases in enemy countries are a liability at best. British empire lost America because they refused to adapt fighting Americans.

I will say this there are some certified bad ass people in the military that deserve all of our respect.

That makes no sense. We haven't grown economically because of Iraq and Afghanistan, we had a housing market crash and had to bail out banks while still at war. If anything, those wars were nothing but a waste of tax dollars and lives. There were no nuclear arms in Iraq and Bin Laden wasn't even in Afghanistan when we found him. Vietnam wasn't for anyone's benefit either and we gave up on that and they're still a functioning country. Korea is a just a stalemate. The last war where America as a whole benefited was WWII.

Every war since has been in some 3rd world chithole with no significant gains for America whatsoever. It was all about muh stopping Communism and now It's "protecting the homeland from abroad" which makes no sense.

All the stuff about being against wars like Iraq and Vietnam (which I am too) aside, I think they are just bitter because they know they will never have the courage and bravery to go to war and risk their lives for something they believe in like our vets have.

Because they're dumbass commie liberals who have absolutely ZERO understanding of how the world once was and how every nation pillaged and conquered in order to benefit their own people

The same people who hate veterans are the same ones complaining about white privilege even though they live in a nation that exists because of white sacrifice (Inb4 slavery which accounts for less than a single percentile of "sacrifice")

I dont think they grafittied that wall to directly hate on vets. i think they just did it because its a big canvas and thats what they do.

pisses me off still. i was in the navy for 20 years too so have some knowledge of veterans stuff.

This was clearly to diss on vets. Why else wouldn't they just go to some building or billboard?

I will absolutely not because it the foundation of anti-American sentiments. Slavery is the dark side of America and is why many Americans hate America and anything to do with patriotism

It's really about profit for the military industrial complex. Eisenhower actually warned us of this. They try and justify themselves by claiming chit "but it's in the best interests of everyone!" and "It's just the way it is".

You will never find a conservative who hates veterans, but you'll find plenty of liberals. These people are the same ones who show up in hordes to Trump rallies and destroy police cars, riot like animals, and make complete idiots of themselves. Why do they do it? Because they are mad that they've never done anything valuable with their own worthless lives so they want to take out anger on people who have done something worthwhile(like served our country). Besides that, liberals believe America is an evil country and hate anything to do with patriotism or honoring America. They hate the principles of freedom and moral values that America was founded upon. They hate the Constitution. They hate the idea of natural rights and freedom. And most of all, they hate the men and women who are willing to die to support these principles.

THAT is why these scumbags vandalize the memorials.

Less than 100? You must not follow the news. Hundreds+ people are showing up to these rallies. I live in Dallas, and when Trump here for a convention earlier this year, there were at least 500 scumbags lined up outside the convention center screaming and cursing like animals.

Tax dollars are strategically "wasted" aka siphoned to people and corporations that have political connections to the US government. Wars are extremely profitable for a select few.
