I wonder how many of the Riptides are Veterans.

The only one I know is Tom Clifford. But I don't classify Tom, a Riptide.

I wonder how many of the Fix Pacifica anonymous are veterans. Oh right, we don't know who any of them are so none of them are known to be veterans.

I am sure the deadbeats over on Riptide went to Canada. I can see some of them wearing dresses to try to get out of military service.

Those deadbeats are nothing but a draw on the economy.

That's cause they're visitors from Riptide.

Unlike the Riptides who have cash businesses and still have EBT cards.

Yes Riptides we know who you are.
