Rules for Kickin’ Ass
Rules for the Non-Military
Make sure you read #13
Dear Civilians, ‘We know that the current state
of affairs in our great nation has many civilians up in arms and
excited to join the military.
For those of you who can’t join, you can still lend a hand.
Here are a few of the areas where we would like your assistance:
1. The next time you see any adults talking (or wearing a hat)
during the playing of the National Anthem –
kick their ass.
2. When you witness, firsthand, someone burning
the American Flag in protest – kick their ass.
3. Regardless of the rank they held while they served, pay
the highest amount of respect to all veterans. If you see anyone
doing otherwise, quietly pull them aside and explain how
these veterans fought for the very freedom they bask in every
second.
Enlighten them on the many sacrifices these veterans made
to make this Nation great. Then hold them down while a disabled
veteran kicks their ass.
4. If you were never in the military, DO NOT pretend that you were.
Wearing battle dress uniforms (BDUs) or Jungle Fatigues, telling
Others that you used to be ‘Special Forces’.
Collecting GI Joe memorabilia, might have been okay when you were
seven years old, now, it will only make you look stupid and get your
ass kicked.
5. Next time you come across an *Air Force*
member, do not ask them, ‘Do you fly a jet?’ Not everyone in the
Air Force is a pilot. Such ignorance deserves an ass-kicking
(children are exempt).
6. If you witness someone calling the
Coast Guard ‘non-military’,
inform them of their mistake –
and kick their ass.
7. Next time Old Glory (the US flag) prances
by during a parade, get on your damn feet and pay
homage to her by placing your hand over your heart.
Quietly thank the military member or veteran lucky enough to be
carrying her – of course, failure to do either of those could
earn you a severe ass-kicking.
9. ‘Your mama wears combat boots’ never made sense to me –
stop saying it! If she did, she would most likely be a vet and
therefore would kick your ass!
10. ‘Flyboy’ (*Air Force*), ‘Jarhead’ (*Marines*), ‘Grunt’ (*Army*),
‘Squid’ (*Navy*), ‘Puddle Jumpers’(*Coast Guard*), etc., are terms of
endearment we use describing each other. Unless you are a service
member or vet, you have not earned the right to use them. Using them
could get your ass kicked.
11. Last, but not least, whether or not you become a member of the
military, support our troops and their families.
Every Thanksgiving and religious holiday that you enjoy
with family and friends, please remember that there are literally
thousands of soldiers, sailors, marines and airmen far from home
wishing they could be with their families. Thank God for our military and
the sacrifices they make every day. Without them, our Country would get
it’s ass kicked.
12. It’s the Veteran, not the reporter, who has given us the freedom of
the press.
It’s the Veteran, not the poet, who has given
us the freedom of speech.
It’s the Veteran, not the community
organizer, who gives us the freedom
to demonstrate.
It’s the Military who salutes the flag, who serves beneath the
flag, and whose coffin is draped by the flag, who allows the protester
to burn the flag.
AND ONE MORE:
13. If you ever see anyone singing the national anthem in Spanish –
KICK THEIR ASS.
ONE LAST THING:
If you got this email and
didn’t pass it on – guess what – you deserve
to get your ass kicked!
WE LIVE IN THE LAND OF THE FREE, ONLY BECAUSE OF
THE BRAVE! IN GOD WE TRUST
