Liberal Veteran tees, all five US service branches

[qnr]

This is kind of SPAM, but I'd appreciate it being shared It's a post on my blog about the availability of liberal veteran tees in our shop.


Military Tees at The Wits End

The Wit's End has liberal veteran tee shirts available. Many people are under the mistaken impression that the military is one giant block of conservatives. That is not true at all. Admittedly, the ratio is in favor of the conservative elements, but there are a significant number of progressive military servicemembers and veterans. Part of the problem is that the conservative members are more vocal, and get most of the attention. This leads to the more liberal elements keeping their mouths shut because they believe that they are hopelessly outnumbered. These tees help get the word out that they are not alone, there are other liberal veterans and one of them is standing right in front of them as they read the shirt.

1. I am getting this for my husband who served in the navy, after Vietnam and before

the Gulf war. He followed in the footsteps of his father who served at the end of
WW2 in the Pacific and returned to continue his studies on the GI Bill, became a teacher and rose to become Superintendent of Schools in Kenosha, WI.

2. Awesome. Can I ask a favor of you?

Could you follow this link and tell me if you have any problems. Someone on a Liberal Veterans group on facebook said they were getting a virus/malware alert on their system. That is the first I've ever heard of it, and Google Analytics says that about 70 people a day visit.

Thanks! If you can't that's ok too.

3. Um, I'm not sure I want to risk getting a virus on my computer...hubby and I are

not very tech savvy and would like to avoid having any issues with our computer.

I wish I could be more helpful but right now, as seniors, we tend to get stressed about everything...health issues predominate now but coming soon will be the car issues, home repair issues, and sadly the computer issues.

You can probably understand my concern. I do hope you can get some real good help from the techies out there, or perhaps right here at DU in GD.

4. OK, thanks - There really is no virus involved. This is

through a well respected web hosting service (freewebstore.com in the UK). But I understand perfectly.

5. I got no alert clicking on your link

Somebody may have gotten a false alarm or it may have been a troll trying to cause trouble by raising fears that the site is infected. I had no problem at the site.

6. Thank you very much. Doubt it was a troll, but even he

though it was probably a false alarm.

7. OK, just did click on it. I'll let you know. I'm sorry if some troll is trying to cause trouble...

8. OK, thanks :D

Well, my shops (There is an older one on Etsy with a lot more items) have many Liberal/Science/Secular items - I don't doubt that someone out there might be trying to cause problems by reporting me. However; I don't think I was being trolled by that guy, he was honestly working with me trying to figure things out.

9. just don't tell my husband. He will go apeshit. He takes computer issues personally...

it's a problem...

10. Heheheh I understand. I'm a developer for a Linux OS,

and I've owned computers since 1979. I take security seriously.
