For once, I'm not writing to bitch. Well, OK, maybe just a little, but for once I have something to say that is not outright complaining. Who knew that could happen??
Anyway, I got an email this morning from a friend who wants to send care packages to soldiers in Afghanistan and wanted to know if I could help. I just wanted to blog and say that it never ceases to amaze me at how generous and thoughtful people can be. There are people out there who genuinely care and want to show our boys their support. As my husband likes to say, "It gives me a fucking hard-on" that people are so wonderful and want our boys to know they are not forgotten. There really are people who give a flying fuck and still support our troops!
That having been said, with a special thanks to Miss B for reminding me that people still give a shit, on to the bitch portion of what I wanted to say. I'm am shocked and pissed the fuck off to learn that there are people out there who are scamming supportive people and ripping them off in the name of "supporting our troops!" What the fuck?!? As if the guys aren't going through enough shit being shot at and forced to be away from their families, now there are assholes out there who are taking advantage of the people who want to help the guys! This is fucking BULLSHIT! To use our soldiers as a way to make money off unsuspecting people who want to do right by our soldiers makes me sick. So, to all you scammers out there, FUCK YOU and MAY YOU BURN IN HELL!!
And, incidentally, if you happen to find out the names and locations of people who are pulling shit like this, let me know. I bet I can find a few Rakkasans to help teach them the error of their ways. . .
"If you don't want to stand behind our troops, please feel free to stand in front of them!"
