    I don't know why i do come over here to be honest. These are very interesting topics. I just wish I didn't have to read such bullshit posts like that. Fucker, I'm liberal AND served my country. I support our troops no matter what. Blanket statements are how people get their ass handed to them.

    I know right? I didn't like reading stuff here either. I'd prefer everyone just say things I agree with so I wouldn't have to get mad.

    You come here because in your heart and soul you know how you feel is right. Do not let these soulless fucks dissuade you from your feelings and your passion. They’re wrong, 100% and you know it. Don’t stop.

    When people talk about serving their country they are talking about working in the armed forces, not as a line cook at chicos tacos.

    Now I'm stealing his backpack.

    Sell car, eat tacos and use his ID to get into a game. They'll know something is off but I'll scream "lookie me ever-body" and they'll let me in.

    Who thought we'd miss the quiet dignity and human decency of George W. Bush?

    Bush didn't take the press camera crews to turn these things into photo ops.

    It's funny to hear 45 talk about how people made up lies about him (like the most recent thing about how he said "he knew what he signed up for" to the mother of a dead solider...don't know if it was said or not, but whatever), when he makes up shit all the time about people.

    Fair enough. I was more trying to point out the fact that all these liberals are using this story to score political points, more so than actually giving two shits about the people involved. It's literally the exact shit they are trying to accuse Trump of. Sorry it just makes my bullshit detector go off.

    It does seem that many on the left choose to politicize the deaths and injuries from combat. They sue to take pictures of the coffins coming off the military planes. ABC News spent an hour+ just reading the names of the dead in the ouster of Saddam and rebuilding of Iraq. Obama was criticized a few times for lack of respect in his salutes to the military guys guarding and flying his planes and helicopters.

    I cannot find a count of US soldiers injured or killed since Trump took office. Just three incidents: Yemen raid, the USS Fitzgerald collision, and Niger. I suspect there are more, since operations are ongoing in Iraq, Syria, and Afghanistan (and any other places Obama got us into).

    If Trump really wanted to honor our military, he'd get us out of those combat situations (like he promised) without surrendering the gains we made at the cost of injured and killed military personnel.

    EDIT: found ~16 soldiers killed in Iraq in 2017 and 11 in Afghanistan. Some of those were training accidents.

    Typical Two way Denny. When Obama lives up to his campaign promises and pulls the the troops out, he’s a surrendering fool who let the military down. When Trump promises to bring the troops home and then doesn’t, he’s dishonoring military. Which is it? Try as hard as you always do, you can’t have it both ways. Looks like a bad case of Obama/Clinton Derangement Syndrome. Sad......
