The creation of the Army emo....

Now we have all seen the video of the angry ginger punching and slapping and yelling at a young couple.  

  His opening line is "I'm a combat veteran I'm fucking crazy" to which the female says well you're not acting like it. 

    Now no one fully knows the situation of what happened for this altercation to occur, except those who were there and involved.

   This video depicts an extreme case of what I call an Army emo.

   Now I am not in any way talking down his service or his time over seas.

  We all know an Army emo, it's someone who acts hard as fuck and acts as if they were in every major battle since Khe Sanh.

In this case he tries to use his status as intimidation which will do nothing but bring negatively to the veteran community as a whole.

    Just like the time you spent in the military, your actions represent your unit your branch and the military as a whole if you are going to shed light on the fact that you are a veteran a combat veteran at that, one must realize that their actions represent all of us to the media and the public.

  How many times have you seen a negative headline where within the first sentence it states that the person is a veteran (e.g. Army veteran caught attempting to burn down apartment complex.)

   In conclusion think about your actions if you are going to represent yourself as a veteran, because shit like ginger beard makes us all look like a bag of ass.

  What do you think about this incident?
