    the context was that we are already in a non shooting war.  I asked the board what one would look like.  no answer other than "you better keep your head down".  TSOL talks about civil war incessantly as well.  no one on the right calls either out but SWATTING!!!  that's a big deal....there are others here calling for civil war.  the egg sucker has gone silent as well.


    Well a non shooting war would be considered a Cold War not a civil war.

     

    A civil war which probably could never happen would most certainly be devastating for the lefts ideology.

    Reproductive rights was absolutely right. And yes, they will be voting on it.
     

    It really doesn’t matter whether or not you believe they are right or wrong if someone took away your reproductive rights, how would you feel?


    So how would a man feel if their reproductive rights were taken away…..what happens if a woman wants an abortion but the man doesn’t want her to get her one? The woman gets an abortion anyway.
     

    What happens when a woman wants the child but the guy doesn’t? The guy ends up having to pay child support.

     

    Didn’t think that one through did you?

    I believe you. You don't have to try to justify your service to this clown.  Thanks for your service.


    Alright can you explain why John couldn’t answer any simple questions any Iraq Vet could? I asked some specific questions anybody from that spent any time other than a layover would know.

     

    Where John screwed up is when painted a broad brush where he said that people were trained to hate Americans and that simply isnt true and he would have known that if he actually interacting with the people.

     

    He could just easily said oh winter to spring time in Iraq? The place is mess it’s just a quagmire of mud gets everywhere. KBR would have came to mind as a main contractor, the temp in summer sure it got to 130 but it stayed mostly between 110-115 F. He would have known the frustration of the terps ( Interpreters) would claim they didn’t know the local dialect.

     

    Had John spent any significant time in Iraq the answer wouldn’t be the people are trained to hate Americans because he would have known that people that hate American culture they wouldn’t try to sell bootlegged DVD at the local bazaar, that actual people would try dress like Americans even though it wasn’t quite right and out of fashion (tipped boots and Jean jacket’s really?) you think a culture that hated Americans would allow their kids to come up to joes and ask “Mister, Mister soccer ball? Gatorade? MRE?”

     

    Those are little details we combat vets experienced and whether you like or not we use those details because many people like to to take credit for what we been though. You know what a shell sounds like? a whistling tea kettle with a boom at the end. If you hear pop pop you are good, it’s the wizzing sound you have to worry about. You know what war is like? Sheer boredom mixed in with confusion and pure adrenaline when the action happens. You don’t even know what happened till it’s explained afterwards.

     

    John Admitted he was in another country while I was actually in Iraq, attached to army infrastructure boots on the ground part of OIF.

     

    You call me a clown? Go ***** yourself redd and your little B word intel airman who can’t answer any simple questions about Iraq.

    I didn’t answer your basic questions because they are an insult I’m not here to take a test. You can look up any of the military groups that I mentioned whenever I was laying out my military service and a simple google search for sure that they are all true.

     

    Don’t point at me about stolen valor whenever you literally have not explained any of your combat experience while I have

     

    I have nothing to prove to you I gave 10 years of my life to the country. Don’t have any idea how many years you gave or where you were at, and I never asked you by the way because frankly it’s uncalled.for

    for all I know you’re just a call to duty game player 

     

    if you truly were a communications veteran, you would understand what security clearance means, and not being able to divulge information

    Well, this is interesting because you still have many Republicans that are absolute Warhawks, but that’s why they’re so disorientated because their party really doesn’t stand for anything anymore and it shows


    You already know I’m not a call of duty player because I asked questions that were specific about Iraq that combat veterans already knew but you couldn’t answer. You are on the defensive because you know I called you out, because Combat Veterans are very good about that, we see people like you who try and puff themselves to feel important and their opinions hold more weight but when it comes to the small details for some reason it’s classified and nobody can answer where they were in Iraq, like you…….

     

    Which is interesting because if it’s so classified exactly where you were at in Iraq then you probably shouldn’t have divulged that you even ever were in Iraq to begin with when you were supposed to be an another country.

     

     

    Or you are full of *****.

    And beyond the wire can be in a number of locations

    Once again, my offer still stands 100 bucks that we never institute a draft

     

    Put up or shut the ***** up


    You aren’t using that phrase correctly. 
    There is no beyond the wire, it’s outside the wire, you couldn’t answer any of my very basic questions of Iraq that anybody who has spent more than a layover would know, yet you claimed you served particularly in Iraq.

     

    Do not take credit for actual combat vets. We both know there is a hierarchy within the military and you are not a combat vet nor will you ever be.

    I was based in a mobile command center in Saudi Arabia that’s as far as I’m going to go for location because it’s classified

     

    Out of that command center I did many different things. Some duties required me to go beyond the wire.  One of the non-classified duties that I did was I was a crew scheduler because I was attached to the 52nd airlift squadron out of Norton Air Force Base California (not classified)but I was also attached to a mobile command center that went all over the world during my time there once again, can’t give locations, I did a total of 10 years the last five being a classified location on the East Coast 
     

    Whenever you carry top-secret SCI clearances, you’re not allowed to just give out information like that regardless of whether I am still serving or not


    Saudi Arabia is a different country than Iraq.

    you asked some questions.  fair game but how do u know what John did or didn't do?  If he was at camp did he not experience the people at all?


    Do you believe the people he just described would be admitted in a camp?

     

    10 minutes ago, John from Riverside said:

    No, you don’t experience it. If you’re inside the wire, things are much more controlled, leaving the wire means going outside of a protected area which I did but I’m not going to specify where I went because that’s classified.


    Alright which camp or FOB were you based out of?

    You have fallen into the fear mongering of the republican party that’s why you’re afraid of it
     

    We don’t have an adolescent child holding the nuclear football Biden with all of his faults is not going to put us into World War III. You can calm down a little bit. I have a son also and I don’t have any expectations of him being drafted in any kind of way, the only way that that would happen is if he decided to go into the guard or active duty military but that’s not going to happen. He is chosen another career path. 

    Are you suggesting that I didn’t serve in Iraq lol


    Oh you might have been in country. Just you never left the wire except you entered country mad exiting country.

    Very different
     

    If people don’t like religious beliefs, running the days of every day people in the United States, they would absolutely hate the Middle East

     

    In short, they are trained to hate us it’s a very dangerous place for a United States service man


    I will put this to the test.

     

    In winter to early spring what’s the interesting thing about the ground in Iraq?

     

    Whats the name of the most popular base contractors over in Iraq

     

    What was the average temperature in say June?

     

    What was the consistent main complaint of the terps?

    I did not say you all

     

    But while we’re there, unfortunately, you do act like a pack of hyenas a little tribe that have to back each other up rather than think critically

     

    I’ve been pretty fair to you commsvet because I’m not gonna go out of my way to insult a fellow veteran, even if I disagree with how he thinks

     

    I have not been shown the same respect by you so that stops now


    Still waiting on those bumps there John, you made the claim now back it up.

    OK, I’m gonna give you the benefit of the doubt that you are not a stupid person and that you’re not recognizing that the Babylon bee is being posted more than just in its own thread


    And I’m going to straight out tell you that if and when those posters do that it’s recognized as satire and done to prove a point or make a joke but because you are an arrogant ####### instead of considering the context,your mind goes to 

     

    Gee this guy believes this a legitimate news source 

     

    Because it never occurs in your tiny brain that maybe just maybe the right leaning crowd around here, you know whose professions range from nurse, doctor, molecular biologist, teacher maybe smart and you just can’t stand the thought of an intelligent person not agreeing with everything you say.

    And your problem is that you don’t want your what you perceive to be your team to be wrong about anything, and it shows
     

    Whenever you have people continuing to post over and over and over again the same idiotic sometimes funny articles from the bee you don’t recognize that they are actually believing what they are reading

     

    Meanwhile, you will never see me post some thing from the onion here


    People are continuing to post the same idiotic and sometimes funny articles from the Babylon Bee in a thread specifically named …………The Babylon Bee

     

    And you think, in your arrogant wisdom …..this thread created specifically for these satire articles that posters believe it’s real news. That’s a new level of stupidity.

    I guarantee you there are people on this board that take that newspaper seriously


    Well you must be one those posters because you were offended it was being called America’s Newspaper and you keep calling it a newspaper when everybody else knows it’s an actual satire website that is posted in the thread with the title …The Babylon Bee. 

     

    Thats your problem, you don’t read or understand much of the subject matter in the threads down here and it makes you look stupid on this board.

     


     

    But why don’t you go ahead and make a list of posters on this board you think take this obvious satire seriously?

    So once again, I ask
     

    Is this a feeble old man? They can barely tie his shoes without help

     

    Or

     

    Is he an evil criminal mastermind that has gotten millions of dollars from other countries to line his pockets

     

    Biden is old and slow. He basically is now just doing what the people around him or telling him to do but those people are competent


    Yes and Yes because there is this concept called time, right now Biden is a feeble old man but when he was younger he also was scheming.

    Are you a veteran like myself with the names like comms vet? Did you work in the military with communications or something?
     

     


    I’m a combat veteran joined the Army and was a commo sergeant with a line company in the infantry. 
     

    You joined a branch that gives soldiers a ride to the war.
