[Woodman]

Look who's talking though, someone without a foggiest idea about weakness, definitely narcissistic, and definitely a loser.
Bunch of enraging mess he said. But he's so far out of reality even regularly I'd hope anyone thinking rationally'd just ignore him. He doesn't sound one o' these types that learn anything from mistakes, or want their shit mindset changed.

Eugh, and I liked Rockstar energy drinks too.

This guy is an ignorant assmaggot. Yet another clueless, civilian. We need to start dropping shitheads like this guy in kobani.

Michael Savage can eat a bag of dicks.
So can his nasty ass energy drink.

The simple thing to do is go on a www rampage about boycotting his energy drink. If it sticks, goes viral... see how funny he thinks it all is then?

 

[pltqn]

Asswipe, that is what he is. Not good enough to be the asshole; only what you wipe it with and throw away. Never bought the nasty drink to begin with, never will now. RipIts Rule!

This guy and all of his ilk what one thing; to stir the pot. Anything and everything is fair game to them. He's not worth the time or effort except to hurt his business as Anthony mentioned.

It would be funny though, if a hundred vets with PTSD showed up at his doorstep. That would make the news, probably Fox.

Rip it's for the win! :ROFLMAO:

Michael Savage is an irrelevant curmudgeon.

Does he even have an audience? I've been guilty of listening to his show. Merely as a form of background "noise". Some things I would agree on such as his stance on Islamic radicals.

Seems he always uses his "Banned" from the U.K. as a symbol that he's a threat to governments due to his revered political stance and influence. Bravo Sierra!

He's just another among a very long list who do not understand anything about behavioral health and PTSD. He's entitled to his view. Unfortunately he has a forum to vocalize said views. But I'm sure his audience isn't going to know any different.

He makes a living by being controversial. His statements did exactly what he wanted. They made more people talk about him. His statement will be mentioned on many news outlets and posted just like this link.

He'll get more web hits, maybe 1000 more listeners. He's basically increased what they call his "Rate of Impression". It's a big deal to advertisers.

Rockstar Energy is actually owned by his son I think. From what I remember, they don't speak. I think due to political reasons.

A nice open letter to him

I assume you guys do realize the source of this article, rightwingwatch.com, is a far left liberal organization with skews in reporting and stretching facts. Those statements by Savage were out of context. He, along with rush Limbaugh, Sean hannity, and many others, are all big supporters of the military.

Simple google search of right wing watch will fill ya in.

On it's face though, what Michael savage said was wrong. He does make valid points though. I've experienced tons of people claiming PTSD for what seem like trivial reasons, much like those who claim "illness" to get marijuana cards.

Not judging those who claim PTSD, otherwise why would I be here myself? Also not judging those who like the grass. But he is making a point that for every ONE TRUE person or vet with PTSD, there are 10 others who don't. The system is abused and I see it.

Do not be so quick to judge lest ye be judged fellas.

My two cents
