Well clearly these are just hippies pretending to be soldiers, you can tell they're barely restraining their urge to take out a hackysack and get stoned.

MacGyver Style Bomb - 2011-10-11 Now now, you should know that state-funded military programs are a form of socialism and that benefits for veterans are just government handouts and a form of wealth redistribution. The hired guns of the PMCs are the Real Americans.

SolRo - 2011-10-11 Well anyhow any protest for a left leaning cause is a bunch of lazy hippies with nothing better to do and should get beat by the cops.

While i liked the answers, i really wish the OWS people, and many others, would stop paying attention to the Fox News people, stop seeing them as "the" only enemy, because they should know Fox news is just the smoke screen the people with power use to confuse and divide others. You will probably tell me that ignoring them completely is neither a good move, or something along those lines, but i think this movement should not play their media game of provocation.

As a Marine Corps veteran, I'm curious about something... something perhaps quite telling. The second Marine stated that he had to fight to get his GI Bill benefits, including writing to his Senator. This is curious, for many reasons, but leads me to believe that his service was not entirely honorable, which is the only reason I've ever heard of for any Marines not being given their contractual benefits by Uncle Sam. That being said, maybe he's just gay, I have no idea.

baleen - 2011-10-12 I would not assume that he is dishonorably discharged just because he's having problems receiving his promised benefits.

It's often hard to institute these kinds of sustained service-oriented bureaucracies overnight, especially when funding for them is constantly under the knife and being stymied in Congress.
The GOP and some Dems are reluctant to fund needed expansions in the VA to serve our veterans coming home, it means more money for the Democratic "Federal machine," so it's best just to strangle it in the bathtub.
