I got out of the Navy in 2008.

I started dealing with my friends killing themselves off before I got my honorable.

I had more than enough after I was discharged.

After losing friends while active, and after they got out to suicide I swore I would keep living to honor them and live the lives they couldn't.

It is getting more difficult everyday. I'm feeling PHYSICAL PAIN from the fact that I can see data and patterns while the entire world is just giving into feelings and forgetting what happened 5 minutes ago.

I'm in the works of getting my VA disability increased because of this and extra therapy sessions, but all I get is platitudes and "just go along with it, you need your job" kind of shit.

I am SOOOOOOOO fed up with it. SOOOOOOOOOOOOO FUCKING FED UP WITH IT.

If I were not a man of my word, I would not be here right now. I am a man of my word and I will be here until the bitter end.

I understand your feelings. The news and the internet and social media makes money by amplifying everything so much. Plus they love to amplify it even more if it’s negative to trump. But realize this is how they make money and it’s not indicative of the average American.

It's indicative of the world we're living in.

I've worked in nuclear reactors and ktichens... plus I was a first responder.

People are NOW REQUIRED TO USE PPE IN A WRONG WAY. That is more dangerous.

The average person now sees headlines and takes it as fact. No question. No though. It just is.

You're an outcast if you don't follow them. I've watched this spiral, and called it out, for a decade.

If you can wake up and be aware so can others. I’ve never felt more patriotic in my life. I’ve never been more “awake” in my life to what the communists are up to. You are not alone in your anxiety and observations. But we must not give into the evil.

I'm patriotic as fuck. The issue is that anyone else that is single and likes going out for fun is not. The other patriots I meet have families and a million other obligations.
