Have you experienced anti-veteran sentiments?

I thankfully never encountered such anti veteran sentiment. I have had quite a few Vietnam Vets thank me for my service. I would thank them for their service as well. Funny thing about these retarded anti war turds. They hate us, but when we get attacked they are the first to ask for help. I am not ashamed to say that I am a combat vet, and no one else should be as well. And if they think that we are these "evil" people, then I invite them to go to Iraq, Iran, Sryia, Russia, Afghanistan, and so forth.

I think this has more to do with political leanings also. When Bush was in office civilian friends would give me crap. Those same friends are now in support of the new Iraq mission, Libya and Syria. People that are just told what to think, but I don't think I ever ran across any real anti-veteran people. Only exception was a few civilians that felt I was paid to much, I offered to take them to the recruiter and introduce them to military life but they shut up quick.

I wear a leather vest while riding my motorcycle that says Veteran across the shoulders (it is part of the Warriors Watch Riders that give motorcycle escorts to departing and returning servicemen). I get quite a lot of frowning/shaking heads from other drivers. But, then again I am used to it living my whole life in this state. Sadly for about 50 of these type of responses I will get one positive look, thumbs up, or comment and it is usually from another vet.

Maybe instead of all these people slapping a yellow magnet on their cars that reads "Support our troops" when they actually don't, I should make one that says, "I supported our troops by being one!" (And continue to support them!) lol
