Lack of respect to those who have served and currently serve this great nation. The wavering support of old glory by those who have not experienced what we have.

Not only how offended people are these days, but how they feel they deserve things they should have to work for.

Political Correctness. Trophies for participation. The pushing of others beliefs on me. Extreme right or left wingers that can't use facts to back up statements. Piss poor news reporters. Benghazi and the fact Hillery Clinton can write a book about how great she is, but can't remember how she screwed up the whole deal. Catlin Jenner and the fact it gets more attention than veterans issues. People that state, "it is for the children", because they don't have any real facts to back up their cause. McDonalds. Light beer. Movies where the hero shoots from the hip and actually hits something. The treatment of our police by our President. Teachers that can't correctly speak the English language. The New England Patriots. People that drive slow in the fast lane. Anything that comes out of Nancy Pelosi mouth. Tequila that is not 100% agave. Navy SEALS that can't shut up about classified missions. Pasties (you know what I am talking about). The fact that the BSM outranks my Purple Heart. Those that are not entitled, but believe they are entitled. Those that are entitled and believe they are entitled. Dry chicken wings. Rappers that have to make up words to rhyme because they are just that stupid. People who do not recognize the stupidity of said rappers. Nobody has ever inappropriately touched me. German over-engineering on everything. A 30 round mag you can only put 28 rounds in. Reserved seating. Walmart. Nobody recognizes Korean War Vets for what they have done. Airlines that charge for luggage. Beretta's snobbish attitude. Chrysler's ads about their cars being American when 80% of the parts are sourced outside the US and the other 20% are made by the Japanese in America. Expensive wine with a twist off cap. Toothpaste spittle on the mirror. M4 barrels (You know, the ones with the grenade launcher cut out) on civilian AR-15s.

People believing that they are entitled to whatever they want without ever having worked for it. I'm offended by the fact that people (as a society) want to blame guns when someone goes on a shooting spree but not the shooter (even though we never blame the car when someone gets into a deadly crash after drinking). I am offended by stupid people that do not wish to use common sense. I am offended by the Kardashians for everything they do (including breathing). I am offended by how society and the media wants to focus so much on Taylor Swifts belly button and whether or not she will ever expose her belly button. I'm offended by celebrities dressing in clothes that would make a prostitute blush, but the media and society think that is acceptable.

What offends me most with today's society is probably the fact that so many people get offended by every little thing that wrinkles up their collective noses, we have become a wussified society that is controlled by the whims and fancies of minority, special interest groups that place the majority of our nation at odds with one another and places labels on those that disagree with whatever particular, "flavor of the day" cause that is put into the collective faces of the rest of us.

I feel like our 24/7 media competitors have made their money by dividing our great nation. There is pressure to be either this or that; to agree with this and not that. There is no interest (and no money to be made) by encouraging the nation to come together and working the same problem. The way they go on and on, you are either a racist or a victim of racism. If you don't support organization x,y,z...then you are a racist, a gay basher, a republican/democrat, etc. Guns kill, being transgendered is heroic, snipers are cowards, etc etc etc etc. I am an old fart (and getting older and fartier by the day). I would love to go into the ground knowing that we have become a nation that is accepting/accomodating, but not forcing people to take a side......and quit shoving your opinions and beliefs in my face and I will be far more accepting.

You know what really grinds my gears? Seeing how soft our country has become offends me more than soldiers with hands in their pockets. Why must we be so nice to everyone, give everyone a participation trophy, and make sure we don't hurt their feelings along the way? I grew up in a world where standing up for yourself was a norm.

The lack of integrity, the fact that they get offended so easily then turn around and contradict themselves. Feel the need to be equal with everyone without putting the effort, then complains that they are being discriminated because of race. The race card is old, why not cop shoots man? It's always cop shoots black man. Black man shoots white man. Sometimes I feel that Americans take it for granted that we are the greatest nation in the world and do not appreciate the history in things. Respect is never given, it is earned, and people expect it to be given. Wrong answer

It was mentioned in another comment that people being offended so easily is offensive. I agree. I feel that we live in a Free country. I should be able to do, say and feel, post, paint and make public anything I want, without fear of offending someone. It Offends me that as a free country, being a free individual, I cannot have free, independent, individual thoughts or ideas. that if I am different from you, you are offended.

Everybody gets a trophy. I see so many people who want rewards or something without working for it. I've even had a few friends who suddenly wanted to be my best friend and benefit from my recent successes but I never saw them when I was putting in the hard work.
