this website is all about blaming our military for their own deaths in Iraq. it says were stupid and they shouldnt have to pay taxes so we can get by on a lil more than minimum wage. please check this site out and email them with how you feel and that they are complete Ass f**ks!!! there is also a site called forsake the police they have a link. im sure its the same thing. the funny thing is, that i go to war so these douchbags can speak freely? how is that right.

First HRXD, Thank You for your service to our country. There are many people who appreciate all service men and women although we may not show it enough.

Second, the web site just goes to show you can find anything on the net. What a bunch of losers.

I've seen this site before. I would think that it's either someone's social experiment or just an extremist on the fringe. Unfortunately, there's extremists for just about every position and opinion, whether it be religion, politics, etc. I went to the range on Monday, and I was having a seemingly nice discussion with the guy at the next bench about how gun rights are constantly being threatened. Before I knew it, he was telling me that black people aren't citizens because the 14th amendment was never fully ratified.

I quickly exused myself and went back to shooting.

I don't think HardRock's a Troll, and I don't know if astral was commenting on his post or the FTT website in general. The author of the site obviously has a skewed sense of reality, and should probably just be ignored. I'm sure he or she loves all the attention it's generating.

This thread should probably be moved to the Political View Forum, anyway.

Don't worry about it. Every nutjob cause has a website these days, it's just fodder.

hmm...obviously it's an extreme website designed to piss people off. Why send people there and generate more hits resulting in MONEY for whoever put it up!? Furthermore, I hardly think this post qualifyies as "General HS2K SA-XD Talk". Please don't post things like this that are completely unrelated to my XD-9 Tactical in this forum. Use the non-general talk forum or whatever it is please.

I listened to a radio interview with the owner of the site. The original idea of the site was to shed light on the fact that sometimes troops would be getting paid 2 or 3 times for the same thing. After people started attacking him he kinda went off on random tangents and just kinda lost it. He's thought about taking it down or changing it back to the original content, but then it gets hit by a hacker and it just pisses him off so he keeps it up.

He also said that after going back and reading some of the things he posted, he couldn't believe how harsh the statements were.

FOX News had this total nut case on for an interview----they ripped him up one side and down the other.. He was one of the most ####^^##* that I have ever seen , he is young and a total loss to the human race--off my box--just wanted to let you know it had the nerve to show it's face (ugly very ugly at that)....
