does any body else think it's wrong for military spouses to say they are entitled to free things?

[ctaub17]

I read a post on Craigslist and a women was asking for a free puppy. She said " Looking for a puppy to welcome into our home we need a puppy so that he or she can grow up with our son. My husband wants a dog to help cope with the loss of his leg. We can not have pitbulls at our place but any other dog would be sweet. We have the means and money to care for the right dog. We will not pay a fee we are entitled to the people In our city to give back to us since my husband did alot for you all so please let me know"

 

 

Im not against military im a usmc spouse and I dont believe it's right to do things like this. 

 

 

*******EDIT!***************

this is the email between me and this lady her on top me on bottom

FYI I am willing to pay for the puppy but no more than 10$. I am not sure why people think I should pay for anything since my husband lost his leg in training for stupid whores like you!!! and maybe I didnt add that on the post. But you being a bitch to me is stupid. If you don't like it then mind you own dam beeswax If I get another email from you I swear I will hunt you down and cut the pussy from you. Don't bother responding I am blocking your email.

Why do you think it's ok to ask for free things just because your husband was injured? You should be ashamed.

I'm a military spouse as well and it's things like this that give us all a bad name.

While I am not against military families I don't think she should have put that last sentence though.

[MamaJAG]

I have no issues with helping the military family, however, those with a feeling of entitlement have another thing coming.  She should have left off the last sentence o that paragraph. She would have gotten her free dog.

 My thought exactly!

I constantly get "well my husband is deployed so can I get (item for sale) for free, or $5 and will you bring it my house, I'm about 45 minutes away." Um I'm an army wife and I know about what your dh is making while deployed!

Lots of people are looking to give away dogs. She would have been fine had she not added that last line. Did you respond to the ad? I so would have.

[BaileynMe]

I think that's incredibly rude. Yes, I'm extremely grateful to our military; how could I not be? Two brothers in the military (1 ad and one reserve) 3 uncles in the military (2 ad and one reserve) my dad was reserve, my grandfather was active duty navy... Not to mention all the friends I have who are or who have been military.. But NONE of them EVER acted like that. Plus, it's not as though our current military members were drafter; they all signed up of their own free will, just as anyone would pick a career.
