Unfortunately, it seems the left-wing hysteria over the Confederate flag has managed to infiltrate the ranks of our armed forces.
This is apparently the case as 18 year-old Anthony Bauswell learned when he tried to enlist in the Marine Corps. A native of Arkansas, Bauswell wanted nothing more than to serve his country and protect it from those who would do harm to it. This wasn’t enough for the recruiters though, who objected to a certain tattoo the teen had.
Like many Southerners, Bauswell felt proud of his heritage and sought a way to commemorate it. He decided the best way to do that was to get a tattoo of the Confederate flag. Although many Americans recognize it as a harmless symbol of Southern tradition and history, others view it as a racist symbol, so Bauswell added the words “Southern pride” underneath the flag to differentiate it from racist interpretations.
The words, however, didn’t convince the recruiters looking over him, with one of them saying “DQ, just automatically, DQ,” immediately upon seeing the tattoo according to Bauswell.

So wrong.
That my American brothers and sisters would lay their lives on the line to fight for this country says all you need to know about them. That the government would regard them as property says all you need to know about them.$#%&!@*the$#%&!@*brass.
The military, all branches are now led by a bunch of limp wrist liberals, NOT MILITARY MEN..a reflection of the kenyan leader…..Did you know the Russian military is a reflection of their leader, PUTIN, the same man the kenyan bowed to. Remember the Russian jet shot down over Turkey a few months ago??? Putin sent in his special ops and they seized the turkish town and are tearing the place apart searching for the killers of their pilot. Compare this to the fact that the famous SEAL TEAM 6 and another seal team were assassinated as a result of a leak from the limp wrists in Washington…..See You tube—-Michael Savage and seal team 6 assassination.. DID you hear anything in the American news media??? NO….
