I don't get why other things with less importance get a full month when the military is what assures we can celebrate other things like this by fighting or even dying for the country to then come back ( if they come back) to only get one day to celebrate meanwhile my dumb ass is sitting back here celebrating a birthday or hEtErOsExUaL dAy, like anyone should give a shit that I'm straight, I'm prideful of being straight good on me but nobody gives a shit (I used my own so i dont seem like im choosing sides here cause im aware even celebrating being straight is stupid) I don't think that is an importance to celebrate and along with many other stupid celebrations we have here, I think that if someone is gonna get a full month it should be the ones keeping the country safe, it seems that thanks to these veterans we have a bit too much freedom and it's getting to people's heads lol
Should there be a veterans month?

Look at you. You care so little about veterans that you do not even know that they already have a full month.
en.wikipedia.org/.../National_Military_Appreciation_Month
It is so telling that people like you dont actually care about veterans. After all, here you are simply trying to use them as a weapon to attack gay people because you dont like them. Shame on you.
I don't care about the military, I don't even care about this country, it's all disgraceful now and I'm ashamed of it, if I could move id do it, my post has nothing to do with me caring about the military I just thought they put everything else over them but good at least they have a month now, that's one of the millions of problems fixed.
I am disappointed in you honestly. I know that this post has nothing to do with you caring about the military, you made that very clear, but putting aside that conversation entirely you are still here holding strong opinions on subjects you never cared enough to learn about.
You formed a grievance that made you upset enough to post on this website on something that a quick google search would have cleared up. How many others of your supposed "millions of problems" with the country are you just making shit up in your head and has no relationship with reality?
At this point you are just a hot emotional mess as far as I can tell. You need to get a grip on reality dude. Start question your own assumptions. Try to actually engage in the things you care about. Stop doing these faux outrage as if you actually care when you clearly dont.
Yes of course because I'm looking at the state of my country and it seems like it's only going to hit rock bottom, look at our country as a whole and tell me it's not going to shit, I care about human life, many people that fought for the country don't even have homes and it's a shame, I said I don't care about the military cause I don't, the military is the government and I don't care about the government, I'm excluding the people that risk their lives or have fought, they are citizens of the country but the military itself, the government that sends people to die, I have no sympathy for them, just making it clear on what I mean by military cause many seem to forget that behind all the military uniforms and ranks there's still civilians under it, peoples families, sons, daughters, fathers and mothers, til you mentioned it I didn't know they had a month but to be fair i made this cause i needed a topic for a question and it had to be unique, if you think im here making a question because im thinking this country still has hope you are mistaken lol
So you are just here to spam is that it? I know what is wrong with USA because I care to look it up. You do not outside of some nebulous idea that things are getting worse.
What if I told you that you are wrong? That things are in fact not getting worse but getting better? Would you believe that?
I'm surely not here to be the news cast of gag, but I'd like to believe it yes... but it surely doesn't seem that way, I'm sure if it does get better ill eventually see results, i guess getting better all depends on perspective, what you agree with plays a big part on that.
Well of course, better can be very subjective. I am talking about fairly broad strokes though, things like a stronger economy, less crime, more rights etc.. Of course, we are currently in a fairly tumultuous episode with the SCOTUS revoking a bunch of stuff like Roe or the Chevron decision but I argue that these are more symptoms of progress where you see flares of resistance that will ultimately be crushed like every other time. Think of it as a last desperate attempt to reclaim power but in reality its just going to motivate the opposition and lay the groundwork for future rights and legislation that go even further.
I live somewhere where the economy is high, crime is high, and when it comes to rights, can go either way which might be why it seems a lot worse to me than to you and I'm not realizing that maybe that's the issue but I don't know, what was the Chevron decision?
Now realizing*
Well, to put it bluntly the Chevron decision a SCOTUS ruling back in the Regan administration which ruled that in the case of legal ambiguity the local government department can make limited interpretations on what the meaning should be. Originally it was supposed to be screwing over the environmentalists, hence Chevron AKA the oil and gas giant companys name plastered on it.
Turns out that outside of the petty nature of how the decision was made it was actually a fairly good one which allowed politicians at the top to make broad statements that was further refined by lower level bureaucrats for what makes the most sense on a local level and as such has been a foundation for how the government function ever since.
Now the Republicans in an equally petty move repealed this which now means that in the case congress passes something with unclear meaning or that does not make sense it still has to be executed as written regardless of consequences. In other words, this is now an era of government micromanagement where we have to rely on the house and congress to pass legislation without any errors in it that can apply on all levels of federal government. Its going to be a complete mess.
As for you living in an area with high crime and such, it might not be true. There is almost always a huge difference in the perception of crime and actual crime statistics. This is especially true if you listen to the news and such because they always highlight the bad stuff because it enhances their ratings which gives people a warped sense of reality.
They get a month.
But celebrating them is nice, but is not what they need. What they need is more support after their military career is over.
There are a lot of veterans who need help mentally, physically and monetarily.
What good is celebrating them if we do not follow up and help them. It's a empty gesture.
I see far too many times the VA fails to help them, or when they are disabled and need help they do practically nothing.
You make a good point Miah and I appreciate for staying within the topic, I'd say this would be a excellent and effective way to celebrate veterans day
This link takes you to a site where you can sponsor veterans help them get back on their feet, and transition towards civilian life. It might be nice to share it in yout update. Maybe you could get someone to actually sponsor someone.

Interesting
There should be a veterans month instead Biden and the democrats want to get rid of Veterans Day. They were pretty quick to make Juneteenth a holiday, especially since they are losing the black vote
I'm not against Juneteenth cause it's got a good message behind it but Biden needs a new brain if he wants to get rid of veterans day
@ChicoFromThe305 I was in Texas during she summer including June 19th and there was not a single mention of Juneteenth. I imagine that if I asked anyone about it they would never had heard of it. Meanwhile liberals wanted to get rid of Columbus Day and instead of making Sept 11th Remembrance Day which it should be. We should never forget what happened on that day. There are kids today that do not remember it.
Yes, my grandfather (Who passed in October 5 days after my birthday) was a vet and so was my dad. (although I don't like him like that.)
Sorry for your loss I guess, and happy late birthday ha
It was October 15 lmao!
That was way while ago lol
A***
What?
That was A while ago not that was way while ago
I was just correcting my grammar lol
oh. I see.
Well this is just homophobic and not well researched. You should be ashamed to not know this already exists. You don't care about the military.
Must be new? So when is it?
In May.
It's not homophobic, I didn't even mention homosexuality so tell me how that works?
It was implied when you started talking about heterosexuality.
I also notice you aren't posting on Syntosi's post who also called you out so why post on mine?
I did reply to him, you are just trippin and I don't hate homosexuals, I just disagree with them, if you are going to confront someone about being homophobic at least know the definition of what it means, nothing I said shows hatred to homosexuality, it's actually about the military and somehow you managed to turn it about homosexuals, me disagreeing with homosexuality makes me homophobic but when homosexuals disagree with heterosexuality that makes them just expressing their opinion, how does that work?
You just responded to him AFTER I said that. There are time stamps you know.
When do homosexuals disagree with heterosexuals being straight? We celebrate the rights we do have and fight for those we don't as a whole in the LGBT pride parades during Pride month. It's not to shove our sexuality or genders down someone's throat.
You want to disagree with that, then fine, but let's not pretend your post wasn't a thinly veiled call out of LGBT having a month and even if it wasn't (it totally was though) what were you calling out for having a month that supposedly veterans didn't?
No I responded to him as you said that, if you think I have super sonic typing abilities then I hate to disappoint you but I don't.
You personally might not do that but the whole movement is for just that reason and proof to that would be how they are allowing this celebration is schools, it's fine if kids supposedly come out that way but rubbing it in all the kids faces like it's something worth celebrating instead of focusing on their education is one way to shove it down peoples throats, of course not thinking of the parents that wouldn't want their children to be influenced by that stuff, they are also allowing these things in the books children read at school, there's a few board meetings online of parents complaining how their child was reading a book about how someone gets raped or have homosexual sex with crazy details, how is that education? It's one of them, but to also BLM, WLM, HLM, all these ridiculous movements that only participates in separating us, or do you really believe all this is just harmless? cause it's bringing a lot of hate and seperation, most countries for the most part have a foundation, ours is just shoving useless crap down peoples throats and are too busy being against each other, which is where my question comes in about the military which i admit i didn't know existed but it's good that it does cause if anyone deserves it, its them, no one else truly deserves these celebrations, its just entitlement making them believe that they do, for example the juneteeth, completely understandable, i get it, terrible times, the unity of that ending should be celebrated, but being born one way shouldn't give entitlement to any celebration, that goes for any race.
in what states?
In western area of the US, I think California was one of them, I'm sure you'll find it if you search it
Oh but people shoving heterosexual qualities down their throats is ok? Or worse, in places like Louisiana where they are requiring the 10 commandments in classrooms? The Bible is rife with all the things you are supposedly against in these books but are you ok with it being in schools?
No I didn't say that but I think they started doing it cause its being done to them, retaliation is the expected reaction, I'm a Christian and even tho I don't see Christianity in schools as a bad thing I do believe it should be focused on education and people should teach their children about god outside the classroom and that's just to keep it fair and keep it within the purpose of what schools were designed for which is for academic education, schools shouldn't educate on religion, sexuality, hobbies or anything else that isn't related to academic education, the only valid thing that might be a part of the LGBTQ that is important for a kids education is gender which sorry to break it to people but the only ones that should be taught are the two that have different genetilia, men and women, no matter if you are lesbian or gay or any of the other letters, you are human and that's the truth, all the label crap is dumb, these people want to be accepted for who they are but sabotage themselves by seperating themselves by giving themselves labels.
We have a week which is about fine. A month would mean loads of extra things for serving members to do for the entire month. People have day jobs lol.
There is already a month.
en.wikipedia.org/.../National_Military_Appreciation_Month
@Syntosi I said we have a week, we do not have a month.
Oh sorry, you are not American. My bad.
