Hey Sarg, I don't think there is a problem with out language. Thats the whole idea with the forum, if you can't handle the heat.......... I am sure the ladies will let us know if we go too over board.
Our different CULTURES use different words. In Australia, different states use different words..
And I suppose in the US, different states would cuss differently.
 
Ha! Right you are Sir! When I lived in Germany, it was far more vulgar to call someone a dog or pig than some of our yankee colorful insults. But I can do better. I try to be a gentleman and that kind of language makes me less of one.

Here in Queensland, and I suppose a lot of Australia, to be called a 'Dog', means you are in with the Police and feed them information, unlike 'Bitch' which can be used in a friendly way, or as an insult. Its like some of the 'Poms', use 'Cu#t' in every day language. To me its a horrible word. lmao.
Each to their own I say and really on here, unless you direct it personally, anything goes.

As Anthony says, we are all adults. And if you don't like something, don't read it....
 
I could gon liking all of these comments gents, TEX the thing with your dad, I did the same thing to my nephew, when I was training/teaching him to use my bushmaster varminter like 9 years ago, he was taught never to point it at anyone, muzzle up & down range, dont even joke or pretend with it, so the day before I was gona take him to the range, we were in my backyard & he pointed the weapon at one of my kids, I without a thought took the weapon & put him down really really hard & never took him shooting, he was like 14 then. but you were young, he had the age to know better as I drilled into his head all day long.

And this is the best PTSD site I've been on too. Ive been to many, but I didnt' sign up or anything, because I dont want to be on a site with people who understand the mentality of Combat Veteran, here I feel all of you that Ive talked too here are grounded & real. not a car accident gave me ptsd, getting shot at gave me ptsd Amen
 
Thanks I learned my lessons the hard way but when it came to the army I fit right in. I got my ass chewed for shaving my head but that was the way I was raised. The fun part was when my dad showed up for my graduation in class A's three purple hearts and a breast plate of medals the drill instructors under ranked him and seeing the combat patch from the calve and all those nam ribons and such they seen me in a differant light. I was expert on every weapon and even shot others targets to qualify them. My dad gets full credit not that he wanted me to be an animal but in the early 80's when work was bad he fed my family with a 22. cal remington fieldmaster and a ruger blackhack in 22. magnum for multiple years before he went back in the army. He has to my noledge never hunted again. So life has a funny way of going he said nothing before I went to combat but some how I knew to duck when I needed to and stand and fight when it was right. No holes in me close by one sniper but luck or someone else looking after me. Fire fights don't count because its all in one. just once it was me and him. Mortar don't count thay are indescriminent its hard to run from something that wistles every direction you run.
 
Ive had some near misses, but my thoughts were if it was gona be the enemy or me dead, it was gonna be the enemy, I never regreted that decision Will, I'm sure you didn't either brother, God bless,
 
How long before I can post links and ptsd information. I have amassed a shitload of stuff over the years. I would like to assist others in their quest to make the volcano dormant. Example today I wanted to start a thread and post regarding medication for combat ptsd. the nag screen refused me! somethings that were available pre-nineties probably provide a better look. it seems in today's world it has become too much big health care and less of a feeling you are getting personal treatment. I spent a career studying ptsd in the quest too make my on quality of life better.
 
Mate, I have forgotten how many posts.
I think you need to make 10 or 20 posts before you can upload. Your best bet would be to send a message to Anthony. He is the site Admin. Or just press the report button underneath a post and fill in the box. It goes straight to him. I will do it now and he will answer you.
 
A little more than 20 posts... as it's spam prevention from people dropping by and laying down their shitty spam / advertisements on any part of the site.
 
This site is the best. It feels like if you went to a familiar bar and were hanging out with 'friends'. Vet's from all places and wars just havin' a cold one and talkin' about stuff. What ever comes to mind. It's pretty comforting to know it's here and I'm just a click away from a comfortable and familiar place to talk, listen and ramble on a bit. Thanks to everyone but especially to Anthony for creating and keeping a place like this going. I've gone a site or two and some forums as well and understand the work that goes into making it all go. Well Done, Bro.
