Though the reason for the conflict in Iraq isn't what it once was and many, including myself, may still believe we had no business going there, you can't help but agree with this man's position:

:dunno

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

One of my sons serves in the military. He is still stateside, here in

California. He called me yesterday to let me know how warm and welcoming

people were to him, and his troops, everywhere he goes, telling me how

people shake their hands, and thank them for being willing to serve, and

fight, for not only our own freedoms but so that others may have them

also.

But he also told me about an incident in the grocery store he stopped

at yesterday, on his way home from the base. He said that ahead of

several people in front of him stood a woman dressed in a burkha. He

said when she got to the cashier she loudly remarked about the US flag lapel

pin the cashier wore on her smock.

The cashier reached up and touched the pin, and said proudly, "yes, I

always wear it and I probably always will."

The woman in the burkha then asked the cashier when she was going to

stop bombing her countrymen, explaining that she was Iraqi.

A gentleman standing behind my son stepped forward, putting his arm

around my son's shoulders, and nodding towards my son, said in a calm

and gentle voice to the Iraqi woman: "Lady, hundreds of thousands of

men and women like this young man have fought and died so that YOU

could stand here, in MY country and accuse a check-out cashier of

bombing YOUR countrymen.

It is my belief that had you been this outspoken in YOUR own country,

we wouldn't need to be there today. But, hey, if you have now learned

how to speak out so loudly and clearly, I'll gladly buy you a ticket

and pay your way back to Iraq so you can straighten out the mess in

YOUR country that you are obviously here in MY country to avoid."

Everyone within hearing distance cheered.

Pass it on.... Patriotism is not a "fad"!

I'm 1/16 cherokee. I'm in my homeland.

I'm also about 1/16 irish, and english. but you don't here me praising ireland or england, which I've never visited and have no desire to.

I was born and raised in america. I'M A FUKKIN AMERICAN. and I speak ENGLISH (american). I served in US Marines, and I back what this country does 110%. anybody don't like it? get on a ship or learn to swim. maybe then you'll realize how good you have it.

there's a reason why all these foreigners invade our (my) country.

do I really give a damn if I p1ss off a few people with this? (what do you think?)

and one more thing--johnny depp didn't like what we were doing over in iraq. so you know what he did? HE MOVED THE FUKK OUT.

maybe some of the rest of you should follow suit.

do you know what would happen if I moved to china, lived off their welfare system (pretend they have one), didn't have the decency to learn their language, attend their universities (free of charge)and take that knowledge back to my own country for my own betterment, refused to accept their culture and complain that "my culture" wasn't being represented in the schools, universities, media, etc.?

they would execute me or throw me in a prison and I'd never be heard from again. :dunno

no offense to those hard working individuals who make this country the best place in the world to live.

I have a tendancy to SAY the things everyone else is THINKING.

if that makes me an azzhole, then so be it. :dunno

      Air80 vs Stratos70 Windshield

      Since there is no limit of darkness on the top strip, I have wanted to tint it. But I would go very dark, to help with sun glare in the evening.

      Air80 vs Stratos70 Windshield

      Yeah that’s a very fair point to a degree I’m probably overthinking it. I don’t see really significant glare reduction until you get into much darker tint. Like you I think visibility for me is more important living in the country. I’ll probably see what the specs list the differences between 70% and 80% and then double check with the tinter as to what they recommend. Likely will end up with 70% with a strip along the top. Air80 seems to be much more popular, not sure if it’s due to performance or the difference in cost being so much more for the stratos. thank you

      Process

      Hey guys - so I work for a vinyl graphics company that is adding window tinting to their repertoire and I had a question about your guys' ideal process. I have my plotter set up and my window tinting software ready to go, but I am completely ignorant about the way that tint installers prefer that things be cut. Currently, I will plot/weed the tint and cut the backing away as much as I dare before handing it over to the installer. I was thinking that the installer would prefer the tint to be cut to shape which I believe I can achieve with the perf cut on my plotter. Is that the typical process or should I not be worried so much about it being cut to exact shape?

      Air80 vs Stratos70 Windshield

      Im in TX, plenty of of what you mentioned. While I do sit higher in an SUV, glare reduction is not improved much at all with what I have. My 80% is almost clear, not dark at all. With all tint, it adds a bit of reflectivity from the outside, which I notice makes it slightly harder to see from the outside looking in, in the form of a glare not darkness. At the end of the day, it's not permanent, it's only money!

      Boat window tinting tips

      The answer is to not heat that area too much so that you leave some slack in the film for when you get it to the inside. Also cut your pattern a little large so that you can trim a thread off the edges after shrinking to not have a furled edge. After you do a few of those you'll figure out how much to leave/trim to not have any light gaps. Also I'll leave a hardcard wrapped in a microfiber in the bottom overnight to collect water and keep pressure on the film while it dries. Sometimes you can take the top rail off the glass if the jackwagon boat builder didn't put too much pressure on the glass package when it was installed. If you pull the rail off of a tight package it's a pita to get back on, looking like it could crack the whole time. Congrats on getting it done. I've seen plenty that couldn't, which is why I price them like I do.

      Boat window tinting tips

      Thx everyone for the tips the install went fine, however i did run into a new problem on the main curve of the glass from thr outside the tint would lay flat on the big curve but when applying it seemed like there was too much tension and it would not stay down i ended up heating it up and flattening down but some of that area got overheated and warped a little, if you know how to tackle this problem please help me thank you!
