As a veteran and an avid skydiver and military free fall jumpmaster and customer I can tell you after reading about how you treated*Eddie Bryant I can guarantee you you will not get another dollar from me.

Since when did his freedom of Speach get revoked. *For years we have been called infidels and many other worse things by our foreign counterparts and their citizens as we fight for them and our country and you have the nerve to ask an American citizen in the United States to leave your buisness to quel a complaint of some foreign customers. *What he had on his leg is what the Koran says he is and if he was in Qatar or any other Muslim they would be referring to him as that. To them when they call you that it is an insult and they seam to not have a problem insulting us over there.*

Americans have been shedding their blood for our country and OUR constitution to not have people tread on our Freedoms and you just say screw them in favor for a few foreign dollars for a few days of training. *A Real American would have explained to whoever complained that that persons freedom of speech is protected and upheld by many Supreme Court decisions and you can not infringe upon his rights. *I hate people that spew hate speech but I have to not infringe upon them as an LEO so why would you make this decision to tread on an Americans rights. *I am so disappointed. **

I hope all True Americans read about this and stay away from your facility.*

Something doesn't smell right with Mr Bryant's charity "PTSD survivors of America" and "who" (the charity or him) is the benefiting party of the donations. This could be a one-sided, very slanted, publicity stunt to gain sympathy and more cash. I'm not convinced and need to hear the other side of this story.

Concur.

I don't think the story tracks, but I would like to hear more about it before sending any money or hate mail.

Can one of our 3/3 QP brothers confirm the translation to make sure it says Infidel.

b. (in Christian use) an unbeliever, especially a Muslim.
c. (in Muslim use) a person who does not accept the Islamic faith; kaffir.
2. a person who has no religious faith; unbeliever.
3. (loosely) a person who disbelieves or doubts a particular theory, belief, creed, etc.; skeptic. adjective
4. not accepting a particular faith, especially Christianity or Islam; heathen.
5. without religious faith.
6. due to or manifesting unbelief: infidel ideas.
7. rejecting the Christian religion while accepting no other; not believing in the Bible or any Christian divine revelation.
8. Also, in•fi•del•ic [in-fi-del-ik] Show IPA . of, pertaining to, or characteristic of unbelievers or infidels.

There is also a discussion on the facebook page about a member of the group from Quatar wearing a shirt that said something about NYC - Not Enough. Seems the Muslims always insist on having their way at the expense of everyone else. I think that group from Quatar was asked to leave a different DZ in Florida.
