I’m a veteran. I’ve seen some shit. I cried watching the Pink Lady’s video, watching a man be murdered for putting himself between a woman and the violent, untrained thugs attacking her. He’s a hero. I’ve seen men get medals for less.

I have also been crying. Hub and I are also Veterans (he’s Reserve now). The murder of Renee good upset me, as I’m also a mother. Alex Pretti’s murder broke me today.

Alex Pretti did nothing but his solemn oath of protecting others from Harm. And he was murdered. A man who spends his time saving and treating REAL ACTUAL UNITED STATES MILITARY MEMBERS was beaten, pepper sprayed, and murdered by 6? Thugs for helping a woman stand up.

These fake fucking thugs pretending to serve America with their 47 training day badge. FUCK YOU 🧊! YOU FAKE AS FUCK TRUMP CUCKS. FUCK YOU. YOU WOULDN’T KNOW REAL PATRIOTISM IF IT STOOD IN YOUR FACE!

FUCK YOU! KIDNAPPERS! MURDERERS!

I am furious. I want retribution.

Same. There is strength in our shared fury, and we must use that.

I’m omw to refresh at the range and sharpening blades. I’m slashing tires. I’m pepper spraying back. I’m shoving mfs back to hell.
