I will admit, sadly, the current propaganda machines have poisoned the minds of so many servicemen. The popularity of tRump within their ranks is higher than I would like to see, given the blatant demegogory displayed by him at every turn. Still, I hold out hope we see good triumph over evil when this all inevitably goes tits up.
What I wouldn't give to be anywhere else than the states nowadays! I feel like just the headlines take a day off my life, anymore.
On the upside, they're the only bunch I wouldn't get grossed out about if they peed without washing afterwards!
Nah, just casually pointing out a Superman sighting!
Pay no attention to LAPD, we purposely trained them wrong... as a joke.
I'd like to hope you're not wrong. When I was in, honor, integrity, and empathy were tenants put above duty to any one person. I've seen a lot of this anti-soldier sentiment coming in the wake of the CNG being deployed to LA. As far as I have seen, there have been no instances of the California National Guard acting out of line according to the UCMJ. I don't expect all of the men and women, currently serving, to honor their oath as this country has been fed a steady stream of hateful and vitriolic propaganda from all forms of available media, mainstream and social. However, I have to believe those who commit atrocities will be the minority, not the majority.
Let's hope there are vets in the crowd to remind them that their oath is to a principal and not a "man."
It's easy to sit in a computer chair and cast a wide net of indignation across an entire band of people from all manners of background and culture. If you've never served, then you're just a puppet for whatever the media has fed you. If you're in the US, the same people you're shitting all over may be the only thing that stands between you and LEOs that would love nothing more than to get another gun to aim your way.
Everyone. Is. Capable. Of. Evil. You are not immune to propaganda.
Shit, as prior military we were taught you don't point your weapon at anything or anyone unless you're prepared to pull the trigger. The fact that all the others on that line had their weapons down, but this dude has his up the whole time, tells you all you need to know about the lack of training of that individual.
To be fair, there was evidence of voter disenfranchisement and voting abnormalities that seem too widespread to ignore. Check out the Election Truth Alliance and see for yourself. This isn't conspiracy shit. The numbers don't lie.
