I'm so sorry for the lost. My condolences. Also, i'd like to add this song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3y3PiK3wj64
first of all there was no disrespect, if you read everything I said it was a beautiful image.
second the fact that this is a boner killer says something about this piece. all things considered the reason people frequent this artist and frankly this sight is fapp material. the fact that an image could distract one from that goal says a lot about said artist so in a way it was a complement.
...and further more I don't recall asking for your opinion if I appear rude it is because I developed a bit of a morbid sense of humor while serving. as such I EARNED my right to speak my mind say what I like, just like you.

sorry for the delay but I've been busy... honestly I was just gonna let this go but you comment about "get checked out for PTSD" really bothered me. you have NO idea of what I go through on a daily basis because you weren't there so don't try. my attitude is gruff because that's just who I am, and while I may be personally insulted by your previous comments I can let that slide.
What I can not abide however, is the one you made about me having Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. I do but that's irreverent. Your comment was not only insulting, but it was beyond hurtful. Comments like the one you made further a bullshit stereotype that hurts the veterans of both my and your country. I lost one of my best friends over a comment like that. He killed himself not because of any thing he saw or did "although to be fair it probably didn't help" he was constantly harassed with the bullshit misconceptions people like you have about veterans with P.T.S.D. he was fired from his job "illegally by the way" because his boss was afraid he may have a "flashback" at work. finally after a few years like that he just couldn't take people giving him sideways looks any more so he opted out. I am not nearly as fucked up as he was, my shitty attitude has nothing to do with P.T.S.D I'm just an asshole. I would continue this further but I'll just leave this link

Please read this and keep it in mind the next time you make a comment to a veteran. Just because someone was in the military does not mean they have P.T.S.D.
btw I have served with Canadian troops they were very professional and friendly

Wow that escalated quickly.
Just wanted to say a couple of things.
This is my piece, so I guess I can comment.
I didnt see it as disrespectful at all. It was just a response of what was felt, and for what its worth, Roan would have chuckled long and hard. He was a fun, quirky, beautiful sexy guy, and he liked life in all its manifestations.
Thanks for your concern Veek but really, no issues. And thanks for your honesty Jack.
One thing Roan and I had in common was deep respect and admiration for veterans. I salute you Jack, and I'm sure Roan would from where he is now.
Also FWIW I do have PTSD, not from anything to do with the military. It affects a lot of people, who still get on with their lives. Some are gruff, some are kind, some are quiet, some are out there, some have served, some have not. All are individuals, and all would be better off for understanding, care and simple humanity.
