The 2nd post by Little Joe that compelled me to respond, because of the incredible ignorance of the Middle East Conflict. My reply to the above Little Joe post.
Little Joe's first frustration with my posts, and his realization that I am not in favor of his misstatement of history or his blatant statements designed to, and in favor of, dividing Americans. My reply. Joe's anger showing, and the beginning of his personal attacks toward me, that he now claims other members are using without justification.
The next lack of actual knowledge of military SOP (indicating he never served this Federal Republic as a member of the Armed Forces. This lack of knowledge triggered a required response, from me. My response. Why? because Little Joe posted this silly embedded assumption in his post: Because, I am one. After this, Little Joe went off the deep end on personal insults simply because he realized I can't be BS'd by his ATTICA krap. He resorted to what all anti-Federal Republic members of the Army of division do.....he doubled and tripled down, and added humblebrag after humblebrag to his posts, and became more and more dependent on his "familiar: FD. I continue to be amazed anyone takes either of these individuals seriously and deserving of anything but the same level of disrespect they both display to any member that disagrees with their position. I am the least political member here. These 2 clowns Little Joe and FD are deliberately inciting division by continuously spouting anti- Federal Republic ignorance. It is close to convincing me to switch from a Constitutionalist to a rabid Trumpian supporter. But then I check myself. I want to remain a voice of reason, and besides I want to continue to make my betrothed of 52 years proud of me and my actions in my life and upholding the ideals she expected from this Federal Republic all those years ago when she arrived, even though she was called a gook and spit on, by the anti-Federal Republic Army, that Little Joe and FD so joyously support. And yet these 2 ignorant instigating individuals demand respect and courtesy? No. Earn it, first.
You can always tell when you make an ironclad case...FN and FD stop responding and go on to their next GasLighting topic. After a fashion, they always come back to the original subject in some other thread...as if nothing has been resolved. This is all over social media. It's as if people are being paid to do this. They all seem to follow the same playbook. The only think I don't understand (yet) is...why? It seems like an awful lot of effort for just the few of us on PL.
I, unfortunately, concur. I would still have their 3,6,9 and 12 though, because it is what we do when we enjoy the fruits of a Federal Republic....we protect all. It is how we pay it forward.
When the 1st NVA Regiment decides to pay a visit, you can only rely on the guys around you. Nothing else matters, nothing. Color, political status, rank, age, background, prejudice back in the world, etc. There are no partisan choices in such a situation. Your vision of the world, and your complaining and your prejudices are seriously altered, when you get back to the world, and do so vertically and even horizontally, if still breathing. Savvy?
Right, rear, left, and forward respectively in accordance to your position, in military terms. If I have your 6, that means I have your back. 3&9 refer to your flanks, and 12 is a forward position and you would be responsible for their 6.
I agree that we all should take care of the must vulnerable in our communities, but I don't think it should be a role of government. Government is supposed to be just one very small aspect of American society. The private sector is far more efficient at delivering quality, low cost healthcare than any government organization.
From what I'm reading, it's a done deal that Biden's drone strike took out an American aide worker and his family. Has anyone heard differently?
It isn't. It is the choice of Americans that, through their love of a Federal Republic, chose and continue to choose to serve in the Armed Forces to protect all Americans, even members of the government, the most vulnerable and helpless. It is important to remember that the private sector that you refer to is also overwhelmingly the result of members of the Armed Forces that decided to continue their service to our Federal Republic, in a civilian capacity, to preserve the idea of, and practice of, and promise of Capitalism to guarantee the freedoms of a Capitalist society and preserve our Armed Forces to stand in defiance of our enemies that have a goal of attempting to destroy us.
