SSG Ray,

I just seen this video myself and it is a little upsetting since I have a couple of them. But it is a free country because of men and women like us. Now if it was our flag I would say something different.

He's just a snot goblin and probably had no idea what it was or what it stood for. To him, it was probably a purple thingy shaped like a heart.

I tried to watch this video but 54 seconds in I had to stop. It made me extermly upset to see this waste of space and air taking his "frustrations" out on the medal. Sure, the medal itself is just fabric and medal but what it stands for goes way beyond that. You know, I'm feeling a little frustrated as well; maybe I'll track this kid down and take my frustrations out on his barbie collection.

Wow. What a little sociopath. Someone fought and possibly died to earn that medal and you have so much anger that mommy didn't get you a PlayStation that you are going to jack up the medal like that? He should be made to visit the ward of a military hospital where soldiers, marines, sailors, and airmen have life changing injuries from serving. No respect for anyone or anything.

His name is dylan humphrey, isn't a kid since he's over 18. he used to have other youtube videos with rants about politics. military, gun control, this coming from a mind of an 18 year old who really hasn't had the opportunity to grow a set and experience life. At some point in one of his videos, he claimed to be a high functioning autistic with some emotional issue, well good for him, we all have some demons in one way or another, if thats his, well I don't feel a bit sorry for him.

Most of his videos he has taken down because viewers have come right out and just literally bombed his video with taunts, degrading him in every way possible, chiding him for his actions and repeated death threats, since he couldn't come back with anymore useless double talk to justify his actions he took down some if not all his videos.

I don't pity him, I don't care he's autistic as he claimed, I could care less about the emotions of a small minded individual, I don't lose any sleep over it. People will always be wrapping my flag around their wives or girlfriends and posting them on social media, using my flag as a drop cloth, using my flag as a picnic table cover or trying to destroy a Purple Heart medal. They will never understand the violence done on their behalf for their right to do so even though it pains us to see them do stupid crap like this over and over again. They will never understand words or actions like commitment, sacrifice, honor, integrity, seeing a fellow comrade fall next to you or coffins loaded onto an aircraft during a ramp ceremony.

They may not understand what freedom really is, but they enjoy it every day because of the sacrifice of men and women who have sworn to protect and defend this nation.

{disclaimer} I woke up with a chip on my shoulder this morning hence why I sound a little angry

I know this isn't the answer, but for Pete's sake, he's just a kid, it wouldn't be right to dispense a beat down on him...So go kick his parent's ass instead...someone has to be held accountable! HOOAH!
