 Today, a disabled amputee veteran who served in four wars, medal of honor recipient, purple heart, medal of valor and countless other merits of war, was found in a fred meyer bathroom wedged in between the toilet and the wall, pants around his ankles covered in shit and piss because someone had taken the handicap stall who wasnt handicap so he had to use the normal one. He tried to flip onto the toilet and the seat wasnt bolted down properly. He passed out from not being able to breath properly and said he had came to a few times to try and get help, 4 people went into the bathroom and completely ignored this man.

On the back of his electric wheel chair he had american flags and other symbols of america and pride in being a veteran and at one point he said some young teenage asian kids came in and saw him there and started kickin his wheelchair and antagonizing him.

He was trapped for two hours, My step dad found him and immediatley came to his aide and all this man asked for after thanking him, was his veteran hat that had fallen in the toilet and for him to call his wife. Can you imagine how this man felt? Honestly try to put yourself in this mans shoes for a minute and understand what he went through.

My stepdad came home and broke down crying when he realised what that man has been through in his life for it to come down to what happened to him today, But more so how fucked up the world is today when a person wont even help out another fellow human being, how entirely fucked up it is that in womens defense classes theyre told not to yell help, but to yell fire. Because no one responds to help anymore, but everyone will want to see a fire. And how fucked up it is that no one will even take pride in the country they live in because its trendy to do the opposite, and how veterans are treated like shit when they come home and most veterans wont admit that they are a veteran because of the amount of disrespect they get for it.

Just help someone out and take pride in this fucking country, if you really think its that bad, go to fucking canada and fuck a tree. \

Quit protesting against the god damn people who are fighting across the world for The United States of America, Protecting your fucking right to protest.
