There’s been a lot of shit on Facebook in the last couple days, so it was nice to see this post from Pioneer Seal Coating from earlier this week:

Didn’t even know that combat wounded parking spaces were a thing until now. Makes sense. If you get wounded while serving your country I think it’s fair to say that you have earned a better parking spot than me. Great job to Buffalo Wild Wings for taking the lead on this, and Pioneer Sealcoat for providing jobs to veterans. Nothing more American than buffalo wings, chain restaurants, asphalt, and veterans.

    How does this make sense- the best parking spot will be the least utilized in the entire parking lot? How many wounded warrior veterans exist?

    How about anyone with a veteran license plate can park there? Disclaimer: I’m not a veteran

    I always appreciate the thought, as my godfather earned 3 Purple Hearts in Vietnam. Guys like him were disrespected as hell when they got home from a losing war. We owe him and guys like him a debt.

    That being said, out of a nation of 300+ million people, under 500k have Purple Hearts as of 2011 and most of those were in WW2 and Korea, so most of them will be gone in 5-10 years from 2011, as an 18 year old in at the end of Korea would be 82. So the space will just sit empty all the time.

    I’d rather they give the space to any veteran so it gets used.

    I don’t really care for the food at BWW but this is a great idea and a real honor to the heroes of our country.

    There is an R&R US Army base in Garmisch, Germany where many of our soldiers recuperate. It is used for other things as well which is what brought me there. Blown off limbs, fresh PTSD off the battlefield is horrific.

    Whether we should be fighting in certain countries isn’t for us to debate, Events and Bush got us there, Obama and events keep us there and our sons, daughters, brothers and sisters volunteer to serve. Vietnam, Panama, Somalia, Europe, Japan, Philippines – countless countries throughout our history.

    No one expects to enlist and not return. No one enlists and expects to not return whole. They enlist for the greater good. Those of you who look down on our soldiers are the lowest form of citizen we have and earn my ultimate shame.

    Thanks TB for a nice story!

    What’s next, a special parking spot for transgenders too? Stupid idea

      Comparing war vets that have most likely been blown up and severely injured to transgender?!?! WtF! You surely are a retard.

    Great to see that people still don’t have very good reading comprehension… the story is supposed to be uplifting, but let’s get all Debbie Downer in the comments. I think it’s great, we need to see more of this… imagine how many of these spots we could put in with the $3mil. they just blew on that ‘bike path’!

    Give it 2 days. Youll see some fat useless scum sucker parked there in the family beeter…. No purple heart no service. I do applaud the idea but its sadly just something shitty people will abuse. In the end yea id call it symbolic.

    Why not just give every wounded veteran a free bucket of wings when they come in instead of wasting a good parking spot? Unless this is more of a symbolic thing.
