Teacher shares memories of taking a stand against conflict

“Yes Neathboy I didn't expect anything else from a contemptible person like you. Some servicemen give their lives and their limbs others their minds. Kipling had it nailed when he wrote :

"It's Tommy this and Tommy that and kick him out the brute;
But he's the saviour of his country when the guns begin to shoot"

Strange isn't it when anyone mentions the criminal immigrant gangs flooding into the country you get all defensive howling that not all immigrants are bad and we should let in as many as want to come. But when it comes to servicemen you are ready with the tar brush.

I feel disgusted that so many of my friends died fighting for a person like you - they were so much better than you in all respects.

I expect you will want to join you friends burning the union jack and saying all soldiers are murderers.

From now on - since - you like abbreviations you will be referred to as CLM. Work it out.”

“Its not as simple as that; ex squaddies do end up in jail but many also end up with serious mental health problems and or drink and drug addictions. Large numbers of ex servicemen end up homeless too and a big proportion went through the care system before joining up. There was or rather is a huge difference between WW2 experience and the modern conflicts our soldiers face, WW2 was about survival, our modern wars have all been political and in many instances deeply unpopular, so squaddies having faced the horrors of conflict recieve rejection on return home because some of us believe they ought not to have been there.”

“maxmin it is of course interesting to note that Mark Bridger is ex army, although he is described as an ex lifeguard in the EP. Only last week i was reading about another ex soldier who stabbed his two young son's to death. What sort of monsters are the army turning out, i guess when u teach people that it is ok to kill there will be consequences

here are just a few more, i know there is always going to be a few rotten apples, but to me it looks like the whole orchard is infected


An estimated 20,000 veterans are in the criminal justice system, with 8,500 behind bars, almost one in 10 of the prison population.

“maxmin Ur beginning to get a little spooky, Is there anyone else U can stalk other than little old me lol”

“It doesn't surprise me you don't like the armed forces, I should imagine that you are against anything that actually serves and protects our country, one more thing to add to the ever growing list of things you don't tolerate - oh sorry like. Still never mind when the revolution comes you can shift them across to the 'Do not tolerate' column.

It's interesting how you accuse me of being 'obsessed' with the military. It demonstrates very plainly the fantasy world you live in. If you care to check the postings - and before you go all girly - yes they are still all there, you will find that the person who first mentions the military in connection with me is - wait for it - YOU!

By the way did you read about another person who refused to obey an order given to him by a police officer? And this police officer was the chief constable and he ordered someone to lie to an investigator. Just like me he refused to obey and now the chief constable is out of a job and possibly facing criminal charges. Strange isn't it as according to you every order given by a police officer should be treated as holy writ.

I bet that chief constable wished he had given that order to a spineless person like you, he would have leapt up saluting madly and offering to perjure himself from now until doomsday!
Thank God there are still some people with a shred of morale fibre still left.”

“Now maxmin u know i don't like the army/navy/RAF and all that lot. So i'm off now to watch a bit of downton abbey. Been nice chatting, i do love our little verbal wresting. Catch U again x”

“I wouldn't know why you would say that, anyway according to you I wasn't in the military. Mind you you must be a very clever little boy to know that a military crest looks military!”

“maxmin i thought it would be something to do with the military, it seems to be an obsession with u. I had an action man once as well mind U”

“It's the crest of the unit I served in, I assume you took part in Emmerdale did you?”

“maxmin BTW what's that silly little profile picture u have got. Something to do with the military i shouldn't wonder, U do seem to have an unhealthy obsession about all things militaristic”
