"I actually left Iraq without even being wounded, but when I yelled at the judge about muh freedoms and how children are property the bailiff tackled me and now I can't feel my legs"

This might be the most unexpectedly wholesome emoji on the bear

It's my personal favorite lol

My ex-wife is a lot like Osama Bin Laden in that she hates America.

[-] Wertheimer@hexbear.net 24 points 1 year ago

She hates you for your freedom

Your ex-wife's name? Ayatollah Khomeini.

Reminds me of this old one that I first saw pinned up in the custodian's office at the school I was working at over a decade ago and thinking to myself how absurd it was. Weird how conservatives love to depict the disabled vet but don't give a shit about them when they're disabled and homeless. Everything just tells on them further

Alright but if this guy is disabled because he was defending the right to sit during the pledge, shouldn’t he be glad someone is excercising that right?

Checkmate imperialists

Just because Jesus allowed you to dislike him doesn’t mean you’re allowed to dislike him

[-] Tankiedesantski@hexbear.net 13 points 1 year ago

Ahh yes, defending America from the Koreans/Vietnamese/Panamanians/Iraqi/etc and their barbaric anti-sitting laws.

"In North Korea if you're found sitting outside sitting hours, the army comes over and breaks your chairs. There's a small black market for stools, and the government executes sitting addicts"

Is she talking during the pledge? Why isn't she saluting? Fake patriot detected???

[-] happybadger@hexbear.net 26 points 1 year ago

You have to be a real Donkey of the Week to be injured in Desert Storm. The Iraqi army mostly collapsed the first night. I don't blame his ex.

Reminds me of the old joke about the WW2 veteran who fell out of a guard tower.

[-] Great_Leader_Is_Dead@hexbear.net 10 points 1 year ago

I think I recall reading somewhere you were more likely to die in a car crash in Iraq then die in combat as a soldier.

[-] TankieTanuki@hexbear.net 9 points 1 year ago

Weren't most injuries friendly fire?

[-] Great_Leader_Is_Dead@hexbear.net 17 points 1 year ago

I've met at least two vets, one a fucking former Marine, who admitted they spent most of their time just dicking around on base in Iraq. The Marine guy said he got in exactly two firefights, both of which involved someone shooting maybe five or six bullets from super far away while he was behind good cover and just shot a few bullets back in their general direction. Even Vets will sometimes admit this crap is bullshit.

Which one is funnier:

A) The author is not a veteran

B) The author is a veteran, but just drove trucks or something

C) The author is a veteran, with combat experience

I'm leaning B) because it combines both stolen valor with massive divorce energy but some guy thinking getting disabled in a desert is less worse than family court has great wife guy energy

They tied my dad's balls to his chin for this?

[-] 7bicycles@hexbear.net 9 points 1 year ago

it was his neck, please stop stealing my dads cbt valor

[-] ComRed2@hexbear.net 10 points 1 year ago

And how many fathers have you yourself killed during your time as an imperial puppet? Or children?

[-] American_Badass@hexbear.net 8 points 1 year ago

Beautiful. Reminds me of former libertarian candidate for Illinois governor, Kash Jackson. Brave family court warrior eventually sentenced to prison for threatening to kill the family court judges.

[-] 7bicycles@hexbear.net 7 points 1 year ago

See the violence inherrent in the system!

[-] TheOakTree@lemm.ee 7 points 1 year ago

This would be appropriate if the dad was talking about claiming VA benefits
