God Save the Queen

God save our gracious Queen,
Long live our noble Queen,
God save the Queen!
Send her victorious,
Happy and glorious,
Long to reign over us,
God save the Queen!

O lord God arise,
Scatter our enemies,
And make them fall!
Confound their knavish tricks,
Confuse their politics,
On you our hopes we fix,
God save the Queen!

Not in this land alone,
But be God's mercies known,
From shore to shore!
Lord make the nations see,
That men should brothers be,
And form one family,
The wide world ov'er

From every latent foe,
From the assasins blow,
God save the Queen!
O'er her thine arm extend,
For Britain's sake defend,
Our mother, prince, and friend,
God save the Queen!

Thy choicest gifts in store,
On her be pleased to pour,
Long may she reign!
May she defend our laws,
And ever give us cause,
To sing with heart and voice,
God save the Queen!

Ok maybe I won't, but we'd see how many who defend this jerk's actions would defend mine.

Please post it.

You'll discover that nobody will care.

I'm betting he's SO, either Ranger or A-team. They stay non-spec in Afghanistan. Also the attitude.

Okey dokey. Yes, it's real. His buddies say it happened during prayer time instead of colors, but who knows. And I was half right.

The guy is an Air Force staff sergeant, he's in AFSOC, 21st Special Tactics, his name is Beau Embrey. His primary job is CCT, which is sort of like a 19D with Pathfinder school.

In the time since, he was wounded on the job and is now a PH, back at Pope, AFAIK.

I actually thought it was great, that's why I posted it. I didn't know it was going to generate so much controversy, though. So I've backed off from posting replies to flamers, not gonna let any more hatred generate here if I can help it.

Do what ever you want in america, but when we go to another country to 'liberate' it, it doesn't mean we can just go over there and piss on their carpet.

We may not agree with what they do, but that doesn't mean we have any right to just disrespect it cause 'its american'

Flip the script and have some one playing the afgan national anthem in the middle of a church service and it would be damn near seen as a terrorist attack.

It can be a bit much to take in coming at you all at once. As you can see some real uptight sorts. Really wound tighter than a two dollar watch.

OMG! Loved it, he was sexy and all American!

Oh relax you guys, you dont think that a 3 1/2 million person march was any less upsetting to ISILS? Who cares what anyone thinks if my son were there he would have done the same thing! FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION not oppression!!!

a reply to: AreUKiddingMe

Id say that :

1) shows pretty #y military discipline
2) good way to inflame things.
3) adds insult to injury toa country thats been ravaged by a US war.

But hey its all RAR RAR USA USA until freinds in his unit get there legs blown off by a IED meant for him.


O and Im all for freedom of speach just not by serving military in a active warzone.

And Americans wonder why people belonging to other cultures and nationalities have a somewhat generalised and negative perception of them being arrogant and obnoxious...

This was an immature thing to do, in my opinion.

Exactly.

I woild expect more proffesionalism from the military.


They are there to end the confluct to inflame it further.

Don't you people know that it's bad taste to be a proud American anywhere these days hell you can't even show your pride in schools in America without some group saying its racist or wrong.

There is being a proud american and then there is being a crass dumb jackass that makes your military look like a bunch of unproffesional yahoos.

Just cause he is on a base does not mean he can do what ever he feels like.

He wanted to send a big F you to the people.

Real liberating!

And people wonder why they continued to attack us when we were there....

a reply to: hounddoghowlie

I fail too see whats unreasonble about asking for evidence?

a reply to: crazyewok

Always have to turn it around and blame the US. We were over there to kill animals that had guns and bombs and wanted to kill any American they could and these cowardly animals used women and children for human shields and suicide bombers. Let's at least get it straight, buddy, they swore murder to the US and killed a bunch of us. Our problem is we are too Politically correct in dealing with these animals. Just about all the men in my family (including me) have served in the military, and some have done multiple tours in Iraq during the Iraq war, served on an aircraft carrier, etc. If we have to be over there we can dam well play our anthem and raise our flag.

a reply to: AreUKiddingMe

What did afgan ever do to the states before we invaded their country?

They are not animals, they are people.
No more violent then the people that kill people every day in the states.
And sure they killed some of us be we sure as heck killed a hell of a lot more of them.
Many a innocent women and child killed just for being in the wrong place at the wrong time.

If we have to be over there we can dam well play our anthem and raise our flag.

Why? What gives you that special right?
You are in their country, should you respect the people you are 'liberating'?

a reply to: Sremmos80

If our young men are dying there, I repeat, d-y-i-n-g for our country, yes we can dam well play our anthem and raise our flag.

Ok I'm outta here for a bit. Getting too emotional and that's not good.

a reply to: AreUKiddingMe

They are also killing, I repeat, k-i-l-l-i-n-g in the name of the country and flag they are shoving down the locals throat.
Killing people that don't even want you there.
Killing innocent people that are not part of the taliban but just collateral damage.
Don't act like the US was the only side that lost lives that didn't need to be lost.

They were not defending me from anything, unless you can answer the question of what afgan did that needed to be defended.

And fine, have your flags on the base, but to do this during the time of prayer in a country that people don't even want you there... its disgusting.

a reply to: Sremmos80

It is all about world freedom and if we continue to allow this snowball to tumble, we will all be hurting. Can you imagine how many of the locals 'wish' that they could express themselves? Religion or not, humans crave freedom from tyranny and oppression.
