mass-produced pieces of cloth are still serious business guys but seriously it's only ever old dudes who give a shit about the flag
[QUOTE=Lachz0r;35145295] why does anyone care what some asshole who was in the bay of pigs invasion think?[/QUOTE] The Bay of Pigs was some serious shit. Out of the 1500 men we sent in, only 180 weren't killed or captured. It makes perfect sense to consult a veteran who's been under fire on his opinion on matters about respect for national symbols.

[QUOTE=DaysBefore;35145547]quoting me[/QUOTE] hmmm yeah doesn't look like i said 'he doesn't deserve an opinion'
[QUOTE=Lachz0r;35145561]hmmm yeah doesn't look like i said 'he doesn't deserve an opinion'[/QUOTE] You said why would anyone care about his opinion because he participated in the Bay of Pigs. I guess you didn't say he doesn't deserve an opinion, but you seem to have said that his participation invalidates his opinion.

I guess you didn't say he doesn't deserve an opinion, but you seem to have said that his participation invalidates his opinion.[/QUOTE] well personally i feel that the bay of pigs invasion was a mockery of what america (and its flag i guess???) stands for, so his participation invalidates his opinion in my opinion! but mostly i was just saying he's an asshole so who cares what he thinks. plus he's like 100 years old why do people give a shit about crotchety old timers? they complain about EVERYTHING of course they're gonna cry about a flag being different than it normally is.

[QUOTE=Lachz0r;35145676]why am i a moron?[/QUOTE] It was kind of insulting. Like just straight up mockery.
[QUOTE=Nikota;35145690]It was kind of insulting. Like just straight up mockery.[/QUOTE] why do i care? he survived an attempted invasion and 71 years on the planet, surely he can survive me mocking him
I never said you should care about anything. It's just disrespectful.
bay of pigs invasion is literally the epitome of whats wrong with our country proxy war to the extreme
[QUOTE=Nikota;35145702]I never said you should care about anything. It's just disrespectful.[/QUOTE] i've got no reason to respect someone who partook in the bay of pigs invasion, in fact that seems to me a good reason NOT to respect him. i also see no reason to respect angry old men who look for anything to get pissed off about.
Every time I read one of these articles, I keep getting this underlying sense that they are blaming Obama for what happened, like he was somehow directly involved.
I like how they give the pricing for it.

Altering a national flag like this is in pretty poor taste, just to give some advertising for the next election.

Either he follows orders and is apparently a terrible person, or he refuses, gets dishonorably discharged, and lives life treated as a convicted felon without any civil liberties and has to work as a shit sweeper for the rest of his life. I sure know which choice I'd go with.

no ainsley PS yet? would be funny if his face was on the confederate flag
[QUOTE=BANNED USER;35145725]Every time I read one of these articles, I keep getting this underlying sense that they are blaming Obama for what happened, like he was somehow directly involved.[/QUOTE] Don't you understand? Minorities such as obama control everything!
[QUOTE=Nikota;35146082]It's not like Obama pointed at it and said for them to print it up.[/QUOTE] No, but I meant in poor taste by the people who did fly this flag.
These filthy flag defacers!! tHIS HAS nothing to do with Obama! It has all to do with the flag defacing!
