Rules for kickin' ass . . .
Rules for the Nonmilitary . . .
Make sure you read #13 . . .
Dear Civilians, 'We know that the current state of affairs in our
great nation has many civilians up in arms and excited to join
the military.
For those of you who can't join, you can still lend a hand. Here
are a few of the areas where we would like your assistance:
1. The next time you see any adults talking (or wearing a hat)
during the playing of the National Anthem - kick their ass.
2. When you witness, firsthand, someone burning the American
Flag in protest - kick their ass.
3. Regardless of the rank they held while they served, pay the
highest amount of respect to all veterans. If you see anyone
doing otherwise, quietly pull them aside and explain how
these veterans fought for the very freedom they bask in
every second. Enlighten them on the many sacrifices these
veterans made to make this Nation great. Then hold them
down while a disabled veteran kicks their ass..
4. If you were never in the military, DO NOT pretend that you
were.. Wearing battle dress uniforms (BDUs) or Jungle
Fatigues, telling others that you used to be 'Special Forces,'
Collecting GI Joe memorabilia, might have been okay when
you were seven years old, now, it will only make you look
stupid and get your ass kicked.
5. Next time you come across an *Air Force* member, do not
ask them, 'Do you fly a jet?' Not everyone in the Air Force
is a pilot. Such ignorance deserves an ass-kicking (children
are exempt).
6. If you witness someone calling the *US Coast Guard*
'non-military,' inform them of their mistake - and kick their
ass.
7. Next time Old Glory (the US flag) prances by during a
parade, get on your damn feet and pay homage to her by
placing your hand over your heart. Quietly thank the military
member or veteran lucky enough to be carrying her - of course,
failure to do either of those could earn you a severe ass-kicking..
8. Don't try to discuss politics with a military member or veteran..
We are Americans, and we all bleed the same, regardless of
our party affiliation. Our Chain of Command is to include our
Commander-In-Chief (CinC). The President (for those who
didn't know) is our CinC regardless of political party. We
have no inside track on what happens inside those big
important buildings where all those representatives meet.
All we know is that when those civilian representatives screw
up the situation, they call upon the military to go straighten
it out. If you keep asking us the same stupid questions
repeatedly, you will get your ass kicked.
9.. 'Your mama wears combat boots' never made sense to me -
stop saying it! If she did, she would most likely be a vet and
therefore would kick your ass!
10. Bin Laden and the Taliban are not Communists, so stop
saying 'Let's go kill those Commies!' And stop asking us
where he is! Crystal balls are not standard issue in the military.
That reminds me - if you see anyone calling those damn
psychic phone numbers, let me know, so I can go kick their ass!
11. 'Flyboy' (*Air Force*), 'Jarhead' (*Marines*), 'Grunt' (*Army*),
'Squid' (*Navy*), 'Puddle Jumpers' (*Coast Guard*), etc., are
terms of endearment we use describing each other. Unless
you are a service member or vet, you have not earned the
right to use them. Using them could get your ass kicked.
12. Last, but not least, whether or not you become a member of
the military, support our troops and their families. Every
Thanksgiving and religious holiday that you enjoy with family
and friends, please remember that there are literally thousands
of soldiers, sailors, marines and airmen far from home wishing
they could be with their families. Thank God for our military and
the sacrifices they make every day. Without them, our Country
would get it's ass kicked.
'It's the Veteran, not the reporter, who has given us the freedom
of the press.'
'It's the Veteran, not the poet, who has given us the freedom
of speech.'
'It's the Veteran, not the community organizer, who gives us the
freedom to demonstrate.'
'It's the Military who salutes the flag, who serves beneath the
flag, and whose coffin is draped by the flag, who allows the
protester to burn the flag.'
AND ONE MORE:
13. If you ever see anyone either standing for or singing the
national anthem in Spanish - KICK THEIR ASS.
WE LIVE IN THE LAND OF THE FREE, ONLY BECAUSE
OF THE BRAVE!
IN GOD WE TRUST.
