You are waving your service like a club. My grandfather spent a winter in the Ardennes forrest but he didn't insert it into every argument as a means of declaring himself a winner or shutting it down. Most of what I know of my grandfathers service came from the men he served with because those men didn't talk about their experiences much.

"You are waving your service like a club."

Translation: CMS has a point and I don't have a good reply, so I'll whine about it.

You know what, I'm free to post whatever the f*ck is on my mind about the topic at hand. And I don't really give a damn what people think of my opinion, I give it regardless. If they agree ok, if they don't I don't really care.

if you think that I'm waving it [my service] like a club, thats your opinion

I was mearly saying the military and my experiences in it have made me who I am today, and helped shaped my beliefs.
I just take great offense at being called a "keyboard hero" Because I never say anything unless I'm prepared to back it up. Belive it when I say i will never convert, and would use every means to escape/kill my kidnappers in that situation, because 9 out 10 times they will kill me anyways so why not try to take 1 or 2 of them with me.
And the conduct code prevents me from saying what I really think about these muslime assholes.
