You wanted attention, and yesterday, you got it. Only, you chose the wrong people to seek that attention from.
...
You did not get the attention of our weak President. He tweeted his support for your medieval holiday following your cowardly attack. You did not get the attention of our useless and corrupt Congress. They were too busy lining their pockets.
When you attacked those four Marines, you got the attention of every one of our 186,800 active duty Marines, along with every Marine who ever served.
You just stirred up hate, discontent, and malice within a group of people who relish the idea of engaging the enemy.
There is something you obviously don't yet know about Marines...
The brotherhood we share is stronger than the challenges we face, the weapons we master, or the enemies we destroy.
You will learn that soon though.
You attacked a group of men who bond over the smell of gunpowder and misery—and enjoy it. You didn't attack America's leaders, you attacked America's Marines, and that is a battle you are not prepared for.
You see, we won't play by the rules you're accustomed to seeing.
When you play in our backyard, we don't have to answer to any chain of command. We will not follow ridiculous ROEs crafted by a spineless bureaucrat to appease some goat herding tribal leader. And we won't be wearing uniforms so that you can easily ambush us.
Nope. None of that shit.
Nope. None of that shit.
When you think you're walking into a target-rich environment, you're really walking into an ambush.
That pudgy, middle-aged guy wearing khakis in the mall, who unbeknownst to you, is a former 0311 and armed, will dump your sorry ass before you have a chance to scream "allah snackbar." And that soccer mom pushing a stroller, she's got a Glock and will happily leave you gasping in a pool of your own blood before she lets you hurt her children.
We are here and we still have the training and experience to wage war, whether here or abroad. And wage war we will. Every one of us are willing to fight and die to protect our Marine Corps brothers and sisters, our families and friends, and our way of life.
And we will win, because while you fight to destroy what you hate, we fight to protect what we love.
Semper Fi!

Jeremy, if we could convince DHS and the FBI to give General "Mad-Dog" Mattis the terrorist watch list, and allow us to operate as we have been trained, this infestation of vermin in our country will be eradicated...if the world blinks twice, you'll never even be able to find the bodies.
If we don't get the watch list, we can still do it ourselves - just might take an extra hour or so.
How about declaring open-season and letting loose the Devil-Dogs of war!
Retired Master Gunnery Sergeant of Marines!
Right on!
Can't expect much from a commie filled white house.
Semper Fi.
Amen,
Well spoken and supported
Oh yes, very good letter and so true. Love it.
I just saw on FOX news that the white house has refused to fly the flag at half mast for the fallen marines in Tenn.
Thank you, Brother.
I was in the army recon infantry , I feel the same , you have more support than you think!
I think I've said this before but will say it again. I can say I've ever hated anyone until recently. I confess that I hate Obama and family. Sorry about that , just can't help it.
I refuse to listen to his VFW address later.Nothing he says can excuse the failure to lower WH flags.I wish someone had taken the initiative to lower them & then let the entire nation know the consequences.He or she missed an opportunity to get their 15 minutes and be a national hero.
I think the white house is infected and I think WE the people need to go their armed and deal with it.
Obama is a disgrace to every person who ever served in our military. What we need now in military leaders who will stand up to him, not next to him. If you ever served you will remember that we took an oath that we would protect America from all enemy's both foreign and domestic.

I'll bet he salutes properly next time he gets in the helicopter. A lone-wolf Marine could solve part of our problem and more than half the country would thank him! The only drawback would be ... President Biden?!
Us ARMY guys will have your back too brother!
The few the proud, U.S. Marines. A brotherhood that gets stronger especially in tough times. Semper Fi.
This is my rifle
There are many like it
But this one is mine.
Great from the heart letter Jeremy.
I will always stand with you and my active and veteran brothers and sisters.
Times have really changed since the late 70,s thru the 80,s
But my wit and eye are still keen and my trigger finger steady to pull.
God bless all of you and our country.
