Today, after nearly 2 years of continuous fighting in Afghanistan, my unit came home. We were booed at the airport. FML

Lol all you brainwashed patriotic people make me sick. It was their choice to join the services and 99 percent of them didnt do it to defend the country they did it cause they couldnt get a job or were bored. I dont support the troops cause I think their dumbasses for joining something thats going to get them killed. Great leave your babys at home so you can go get shot for absolutely nothing. We havent been attacked in 9 years and it was just New York. Half of the New Yorkers deserve death anyway. You're all dumb he deserved to be booed.

SMH. "It was just New York." Did you sleep through that entire year?

what country do you even live in?

What might not be apparent to many Americans is so to the rest of the world with an Omniscient Perspective: 1) Despite having one of the greatest Military organisations in respect to size, America is in a region of political and military stability (You are sandwiched between Canada and Mexico for God's sake.) 2) Instead of actually "defending" your freedom, you are fighting a war thousands of kilometers away and the majority of attacks on your Homeland Security are revenge by Militant factions for your presence there. 3) Everyone says the best defense is a good offense, but I believe in this case you would do well enough to draw your troops back to your home nation, where they belong, and if the sovereignty of Russia, Canada or Mexico fall to a hostile power, by all means nuke them to protect your borders. Any nation would be foolish to directly assault a nation with half the size of your Military Resource. I bid you good day, and good luck.

I don't live in America but this is just plain disrespectful. All you guys were doing was following orders and for defending your country, you should be praised.

People suck. You're all heros in my book. Thank you all

That's really awful. I'm a liberal peacenik, and I would NEVER do something like this, nor would I ever want to. I'm not against the troops in any way -- I just want them home safe. P.S. I really don't want to get into an internet debate with anyone, just wanted to give my two cents. P.P.S. Apparently "peacenik" is an actual word -- Safari isn't marking it.

It doesn't matter if you support the war, you damn well better have some respect for the men and women who literally put their lives on the line doing what they believe is right. That takes more guts than any one of those ignorant, judgemental pricks will ever hope to amass in the entirety of their lives. I don't support the war, but I support you. Thank you for your service!

Sorry... what do murderers usually get? I still think the army is a load of bullshit. We teach 5 year olds not to solve problems with violence but no one else??
