<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Please excuse the way this is written. After getting injured my brain has problems keeping everything flowing when I get long winded. And there is just a little bit of swearing but I am not sorry for it.<br /><br />Instead of protesting the side that won, why don&#39;t you protest your side because they set it up for your own terrible candidate? People need to look at their own side before bitching? I am pretty damn embarrassed how both sides are acting right now. Just like the sign in the pic, this is not okay. From either side. Both sides are doing terrible shit to each other and it needs to stop before we tear each other apart and wreck the country. <br /><br />Losing side. Go ahead and demonstrate, it&#39;s your right but don&#39;t wreck stuff that isn’t yours. Fix your party and work to win the next election. Push to get better leadership and a real plan for a presidential victory instead of trying to game the system and set it up for a particular candidate that had terrible flaws from the get go, before the Republicans selected Trump. You guys lost and it’s your own damn fault. Y&#39;all say just as much hateful shit as the winning side. Just because they didn&#39;t vote for your terrible candidate and they voted for their own terrible candidate doesn&#39;t make all of them racists or misogynists or whatever ist you want to call them. Any of you people hear of being a gracious loser? If you are an American citizen you aren’t going to be kicked out. If you have relatives that are here illegally, it is no one’s fault but theirs if they get kicked out. They are breaking the law by the way they came here and by staying. Why shouldn&#39;t people be pissed that they are here? Why shouldn&#39;t whites dislike BLM when you see them tearing up and burning cities during &quot;peaceful protests&quot; (that shit isn&#39;t a protest that’s a riot) and beating whites because they voted Republican or just because they are there? Yeah that’s going to get whites on your side. BTW all the people that voted for Trump aren’t uneducated, redneck hillbillies, that own guns. I’m probably wrong on the gun part but it’s their constitutional right just like your right to peacefully protest.<br /><br />Winning side. Quit saying hateful shit that just proves how much of a fucking racist you are. Shit like this is making me embarrassed to be white. Any of you dumb asses ever hear of being a gracious winner? Pull your heads out of your asses, you are just adding fuel to the fire. All Muslims are not terrorists and a hijab isn&#39;t going to hurt you. It&#39;s part of their religion get over it, jack asses. Democrats aren&#39;t traitors. Do I think some of the stuff they have pulled over the last few years is legal, or right? Hell no. If your side would have lost, there wasn&#39;t going to be a new revolution. Your ignorant for thinking that and showing how much of a dumb ass you are by saying it. That shit would have been shut down in a hurry. The white race isn&#39;t the best thing since sliced bread. Everyone can contribute to the best country on the planet and if you don&#39;t think so you can leave. So, get your heads out of your asses.<br /><br />I voted Trump because of the way the Dems were treating people that didn&#39;t think like them and IMO the terrible leadership and direction this country is/was going. Try and label me a racist (I dare you), my wife is Korean, my kids are AmerAsian and my best friend is a black man who by the way voted for Trump. I do believe we have the right to protect our borders. If we have people coming in illegally, build the wall or have something in place to stop them. You lock your doors, don&#39;t you? It is to protect you and your belongings. We have perimeter fences and other security measures when we are deployed. Why in the hell is it such a bad thing that we do it at home? What, you don&#39;t want a secure homeland? Everything shouldn’t be free. Go earn it. Everyone doesn’t deserve a trophy. Winners get the trophies. <br /><br />OK, rant over.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>A previous post of mine explained exactly how I feel, I&#39;ll quote directly from it. <br /><br />As many have noticed, despite my strong beliefs, I have remained pretty quiet during this interesting time. I may come off left to certain people, but those that truly know me, understand what my views are. I always make the effort to take a moderate stance and try to understand both sides of the argument. I’m not here to talk about who was elected. As Americans, we all go the president we deserve, because WE put him in office.<br /><br />What I am here to talk about is how this election has brought out the ugly side in all of us. I have seen close friends who have grown up together broken. I have seen veterans who have served together lose everything they have worked for. I have seen marriages torn. Why? Because of a difference in opinion? Don’t get me wrong, I have opinions of my own and strongly believe them, but that doesn’t make me resent others for disagreeing with me. We as a nation, community, all the way down to the friendship level need to start working together. I can truly say, we are now a nation divided.<br /><br />“United we stand, divided we fall”

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Embarrassed isn&#39;t the word I would choose, disgusted works for me. As strongly as I felt the evening of the election when it appeared that Hillary had it, I stated that I was reconciled with who won. This just more of the same decisiveness we have seen for the last eight years.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I am. Kinda makes me wonder if continuing to serve is a good idea if this is how people act in this country. Never thought I&#39;d hear myself say that, but it&#39;s what I told my wife the other night. Is defending the indefensible really what I want to do? It&#39;s very disheartening and incredibly depressing to see this nation tearing out its own heart over one person. Completely asinine in my opinion.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>It is very moronic and hypocritical the way some people are acting of this election. PEACEFUL protest are ok. But to damage property, beating people, showing hatred, interfering with other peoples lives just because your candidate did not win the election is very moronic. And the same can be said about the other side. Our enemies are laughing at us. They don&#39;t have to do anything because we are tearing ourselves apart. It is time for we the people come together, put aside the differences that we have and move forward to make this country better. If we don&#39;t, we will continue to tear ourselves down and end up without a nation.

I have heard some folks say the President elect should get involved (mistake in my humble opinion, could make things worse). Personally I think the only ones who can calm things right now are our democrat leaders and the current administration. Where is Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi, Elizabeth Warren or Charles Rangel (ops forgot he was leaving the country, sorry)?

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>People are poorly educated now. Idgaf if people need safe spaces who cares. People talk the talk about equality but leaders of &#39;movements&#39; aren&#39;t discouraging their &#39;supporters&#39; to not riot. Look at baltimore riots earlier...the mayor called it freedom of speech, looting, damaging public and private property, vandalism the list goes on...then she says oh that&#39;s not what I meant....woman you&#39;re an elected official...<br /><br />You as a career military man knows what happens once a standard is set and when a precedence gets set. Until that happens and people are rightfully &#39;punished&#39; not catch and release, but tried nothing will change. People will act a fool. At least MLK knew what needed to be done and how to do it. He helped his community by making it stronger together, whites blacks didn&#39;t matter to him or his people. <br /><br />Then racism is both sides of the field, everyone has bias. Younger people generally vote more liberal because the dems tell them things they want to hear. Older people generally vote conservative since repubs will try to help them out since they may be making more money and soon to retire. <br /><br />But I am embarrassed at how Americans are acting. Kneeling at a football game, shit wouldn&#39;t have happened in the 1940s, to the Cold War era....Then that kaspernic or whatever his name is didn&#39;t even vote? How can you affect change if you aren&#39;t willing to do your part when you say there&#39;s this huge problem. <br /><br />I don&#39;t know...maybe I shouldn&#39;t have been born in this time...maybe I&#39;m a 29yr old from the past brought into the future...

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I personally think this election went the way it did because of all the stuff going on around the USA with safe spaces, only certain lives matter , it&#39;s our way or your a bigot and racist ,you have to be politically correct , and a lot of people are fed up with being labeled just because they disagree with their opinion. I for one could care less what race or ethnicity you are I look at your character and the way you treat others And the black individuals that were pulling whites out of their cars in Chicago because they did or did not vote for Trump should be punished to the full extent of the law because if the races were turned it would be. So the double standard on all law breakers has to stop.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I can point a finger to exactly when the decay in our country began to happen. It was the day that somebody decided that parents could no longer discipline their children the way the saw fit. I am not talking about abusing children, don&#39;t get this twisted, but an actual good old ass whooping. Since that day, we have seen the rise of whining people that don&#39;t get their way and this is the result. Having smoke blown up their asses their entire lives, and when they are finally told they are not good at something, they do no not know how to react. When I was growing up in the 70&#39;s and even into the 80&#39;s it was still a majority vote. Now if one person doesn&#39;t like something or is offended, the activity has to stop. We have lost our way and I fear for the future of our military I really do. Only around 1,000 days until I begin transition leave for retirement and it cant come soon enough.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>The lack of response from the so-called Democratic party leaders says it all. I think they are encouraging it by not stepping forward to say &quot;enough is enough&quot;. Peaceful protest is a right of all Americans. Beating, burning and looting are not. To allow these organized activities to spiral out of control shows the reason why the Dems lost. The rest of us, i.e., the hard working, tax-paying, law abiding Americans are sick of turning on the news and watching &quot;peaceful protestors&quot; carry bags of Nikes and TVs out of looted stores. <br /><br />Silence is permission. Until President Obama, HRC, Al Sharpton, Nancy Pelosi, et al, actually tell their people that what they&#39;re doing is not acceptable it will continue.<br />Embarrassed isn&#39;t a strong enough word.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Sooo sick of the crybabies and society pandering to them.<br />Even the military is getting that way. I work for the Navy now, I&#39;m retired Navy and see these kids now getting awards n ribbons for nothing, lime the GWOT, ribbon, is just stupid. Rewarding for doing nothing and/or their jobs!

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Those who lost and are acting that way are NOT representative of our people as a whole. Anyone who thinks that is also seriously misguided and uneducated about how elections here work. I know I can recall that riots didn&#39;t happen both times Obama was unfortunately elected then re-elected.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I am, and have been for many, many years past as well. I was once asked if I hated America because I spoke of the rampant (apparently by news reports) idiocy in America. I said, &quot;No, I just hate what we have come to be.&quot; I believe in &quot;Free Speech&quot; but not in &quot;Free Action&quot;... I hate the way corporate greed has ripped hope from this country by &quot;globalization&quot; exporting quality jobs away from America. I hate the fact that just FINDING things &quot;Made in the US&quot; is nearly impossible. I don&#39;t mind paying taxes, I just hate much of what those taxes are used for. I don&#39;t have a problem with welfare and all that, I just hate the way so many defrauders and cheats get away with basically robbing the truly deserving poor, disabled and elderly. I hate career politicians. I guess this can be called &quot;Hate Speech&quot; and if so, so what? There is so much more I could go on about but my fingers get tired quickly these days.... (Oh Cincinnatus, where are you now?)

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I have found many public figures that I&#39;ve long respected making fools out of themselves, and that saddens me. I&#39;m not embarrassed so much as I&#39;m afraid of the road society has taken. All of this white/black/violence/ stuff makes me concerned. Why can&#39;t we just all get along and be peaceful?

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I did not vote for Trump or Clinton, because neither were good candidates. The problem is that Trump believes he has a mandate from the people. He does not. He lost the popular vote by over 2.5 million. The 3 states that he won (PA, OH &amp; MI) by small margins. In PA he won by 49,000 votes. Just looking at the numbers you can see why people are protesting.<br />Now we see what he will do. According to the latest he will privatize the VA, what next the Air Force? Navy? or maybe hire some Prussians to serve overseas for the Army.<br />Trump is not draining the swamp, he is filling it with Billionaires who will only get richer while stripping the Departments of their ability to protect the people, the environment and the Constitution. Can&#39;t wait to see what is next on.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I will always stand for &amp; with my country no matter who is president. I will always respect the office of the presidency but I will never respect Trump.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I was thinking the same thing like who is so upset that they risk their lives to make just a point of not liking the way of our way of life. Ya takes yur lumps and go home ! Remember thinking comes before doing if your will to die for your cause then so be it . Let it be said and let it be dun. This is the new age where we can voice are opinions and raise awareness for debate like civilized peoples and we have a few cells of violence to take care of and turn their minds around now before they have to pay whit their lives.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I&#39;m embarrassed of the way liberals are acting right now. They are childish, cowards and hypocrites. Honest to god, they should be ashamed of themselves. (I know there are exceptions, so don&#39;t get excited. I mean this as a whole, not all individuals)

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Sp4 Byron Skinner Since this question was posted things have drastically taken a turn for the worst. Three retired General officers are members of this administration, two in Cabinet positions. So far they have behaved in the manner the institutions of the US military would expect. The birth of militaries come for politics and they serve political institutions but they have standards of personal behavior to maintain. Presidents come and go, the military was there before them and will be there when they leave. The dignity and respect for the US military is dependent on everybody in or formally in the military to act accordanally. The country is relaying on us. This is not 1861.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I&#39;m very embarrassed about how the &quot;left&quot; are acting and what they are saying. But I&#39;m embarrassed when confronted by non-american citizens. In country, it just makes me sick...!
