Never preach to me about respecting soldiers. I spent an entire lifetime worshipping my Vietnam vet dad, and living on base after an engagement to a soldier. I get my beliefs from them. Find it disrespectful? Take it up with him. I am calling out the immature soldiers who call out his fellow hero, and gives him a hard time over something that is nobody's business but his/her own. I don't give a flying horse fuck if it is disrespectful. Truth can be hard to swallow. Times are changing. People are beginning to realize the flaws in dadt. It was repealed for a moment, but Conservative America can't handle equality for anyone not a white, straight, vanilla Christian male. I spent my life on countless military bases, and know more than you think. I love that whole 'walk a mile in their shoes' argument. I watched four friends go to war, and three come back hollowed out inside. The fourth didn't come back at all. I don't care if any of them are gay. They are all equally heros.
