Ahhh, but do you give military discounts?

That was too easy.

Oh Im not being easy, respect given was for trying to make amends and right wrongs. Not for service or rank. Many here don't admit a wrong or try to right it, so yes respect given for that.

And yes we do offer a discount for active duty military that have their ID.

Call me skeptical, I'm not sure I believe someone with an education along with the experience it takes to earn his rank would make such a tactical mistake as the OP did by coming here to throw shit without having a better lay of the land. At minimum he should have expected some shit to be flung back in his direction. His original behavior is below an E-6 let alone an O-6. I still don't get what he is trying to achieve here and if he is here in earnest suggest he stay away from the original flame war until he has earned enough trust that his contributions are of sufficient content to suggest he be taken seriously. Not that being serious here is the goal.

Having military experience doesn't shield you from being an asshole, much like being a faster rider doesn't shield you from being an asshole. You don't get to slide around here just because you have achieved something in one aspect of your life. Being in the military has been part many people’s life experiences here but it doesn't make their participation here more valuable. Having raced or being a fast rider does not make your participation here more valuable. Your experiences offer you the chance to positively contribute but they do not give you the high ground on valuable content. We talk about many subjects here and have people with experience in some capacity of those subjects that offer the rest of us knowledge or insight that makes us better informed people.

Or some such shit.

Sooooo....why do we still put up with you?

:D

No, I meant my crack was too easy. Not your giving respect to him. He has earned it too as far as I am concerned.

OK, I get an A in the sense that I voted otherwise, but as a Soldier I have to support all lawful orders by the CIC; you know this. And if you work at Delta Epsilon Guns let me know and I'll show up in uniform with ID in hand and get your A+, I'm above-board and not infallable. I learned, I didn't run away.

Kudos to you Sir.

Uncle Puck,

It was a strategic, not a tactical mistake. I learned, I didn't run, and I prevail.

Prevailing has not yet been determined. You might be persevering through your unprepared mistake but your self evaluation of prevailing is premature and inaccurate.

His training and expertise focuses on blowing up bad guys. Not the internets.

Not all commissioned billets are the same but I would expect the rank deals more with allocating resources and the logistics of making his decisions stick through the politics of command. I'm assuming he has some supervisory duties this experience should have left him with sufficient communication tools to keep him from being caught with his pants down. If his intentions were to blow up the internets he should have studied better tactics because if he was expecting the result he got I missed the goal of his intended mission.

My tactical mistake was due to living a life in the military, not learning all aspects of dealing with civilian public.

Coming here helps me learn. I show my military asshole-ness and you all respond with your civilian asshole-ness and we cross-polinate.

Your tactical mistake is assuming that I'm a REMF and not considering that I'm an infantryman who knows not the politicalness of civilian life.

As stated, I make mistakes as I learn your world, but I will stand and hold the line as I do it.

All of the logistics and allocation you are talking about are to blow bad guys up. And he was blowing bad guys up long before he was allocating ammo to other people to blow bad guys up.

He had a slight skirmish with some of you. He has now tested your strengths and weaknesses. Now he is back to finish the job using what he has learned. You are all doomed!

That is some shit right there. Why not all military veterans? I feel like you owe it to all people that have served in the military what are you some kind of Woodbury? I'm going to tell everyone I know how unfairly you treat veterans.

Not for an optimist...

You have potential

Why get into the mud with the civilian public, it leaves you unclean. I understand getting dirty sometimes it's quite fun but leave what deserves respect out of the equation, you are not representing when you are slinging shit at civilians. I'm sufficiently cross-pollinated and immune to asshole-e-ness.

I said Oorah for 12 years and for the past 13 I've been saying Hooah.

Then you can understand where I'm coming from by not accepting my doom and I understand you willingness to be asshole-ish. The biggest bestest assholes I know have U.S.M.C. stamped on their ever loving souls somewhere.

So you think it generous extending discounts to a select few while ignoring the rest of us that are entitled to them. If this practice persists I will be left with no choice but to wage a war against you the likes of you have never before witnessed.

My free shit is to acknowledge good deeds and in anticipation of future sacrifices.

I never trust anyone that injects their title/position/rank to a conversation that does not require it.

Well, the reason why, partner, is...why the hell would I give a shit about military discounts if I'm not in the military? I only introduced myself that way in order to show that I'm in the military and on topic for the thread.

The Internet is interesting...I know...and being skeptical is safe in this environment.
