Journeyman said:It's the same hand-wringing mindset that would have me apologize for being a white anglo male; I know, I went to a Canadian university.
So sure, I did personally cause all of the world's problems -- I just haven't gotten the wording of my apology, and a suitable tone of contrition, quite right just yet. I'm sure it'll just be a second; hold your breath.
jollyjacktar said:Brihard, unless I missed it somewhere I have not read any post here by someone who owns an Infidel shirt speaking of wearing it in theatre or rah rahing it either. They have said they wear them or in Vern's case would (if her's fit) back here in Canada. As was mentioned, this is a free county, still. If they want to wear said shirt here so be it. They've earned the right to do so and you should respect that right. If you don't want to wear such attire, or don't agree with it, well again it's a free country, still. You have that right. You want respect, give respect. It's a two way conversation, that.
Truth be told, I was more discussing with the other 3-5 people that had Infidel t-shirts, with the yellow text at the bottom being for the benefit of any media people reading.Brihard said:Feel better now that you've got that out? Can the conversation move on now back to what's relevant and actually being discussed?

The hazing we took from our civilian classmates was just brutal the first couple of years. ...
The Americans virtually destroyed their military, and it didn't happen on the battlefield. Others can speak much better on this than I, maybe we should have a grammar check as well, it took them decades to bring it back.
....
. Think things aren't all that great now? Vietnam AND Antiwar riots AND a full blown FLQ crisis? Would we still have a CF?. Heck Would we still have a country.
In summary our tactical capabilities are great, Others not so much
OK, I was respectful and professional towards the Afghans. The Americans.... :dunno:Infanteer said:That's not what the Pope would say.

You were quite clear with your views, so I wasn't remotely trying to engage. Please, feel free to not wear an Infidel t-shirt, patch, or whatever is upsetting you, and relish the moral superiority you feel is your due.
While I was in their country, I assure you that I remained professional and respectful.
...but if I chose to I certainly wouldn't cower in fear of scandalizing someone wearing a burkha who comes into my local tavern for a beer.
Brihard said:something on the PER about 'conduct off duty', which suggests to me that's something we pay attention to because it presumably matters somehow and somewhere.
CDN Aviator said:It is "Conduct on/off duty" and i submit that whoever decided to include that had different concerns that the potential to offend someone with off-duty fashion.
