Numark3 Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 Is it coming out that he isn’t a Vietnam vet!? I think the most suspect thing about him is that he has been in the center of these controversies before. Something is to be said about someone who keeps being the center of attention. It doesn’t necessarily mean he is lying, but it’s suspect! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just claimed to be a "Vietnam-era Marine Recon Ranger," and the media ran with "Vietnam vet" on their own. Though the biggest crock of ***** in that statement is "Marine Recon Ranger."

I may be different than a lot in here, in that I believe this manipulation is not only on both sides if the political spectrum, but also beyond just politics. its just ridiculous what people say, and how many people will believe it.

There's no such thing. I've NEVER met a liar who was just 'regular forces' like I was. They always gotta up it. "I was a HALO Marine Delta Operator!" Now, I've met plenty a real vet who just cannot help themselves and embellish and lie their asses off. I call them "storyfellers."

suorangefan4 Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 I'm not even surprised it was the other side who was being racist towards the white kids. By the way Tiberius, how come you didn't post about an actual racist and sexist story where someone at the Women's March had a sign that said "White Old Men Extinction Nearing"? Is it because you hate white men too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have my own judgments against who those kids likely are, who they will likely grow up to be, and who their parents likely are.

You're a self described liberal who just used just one color to draw a picture of who these kids are likely to be in the future*. You have a whole box of crayons and your going with one?

You mean, like you just did. Of course we all judge people based on political beliefs, sometimes right and sometimes wrong. I am aware. When I see a child that has been raised in a religious school, brought to a religious rally, and wearing political attire.....yea I just might draw some inferences. I am sure you might do the same for different views. And what are you talking about intolerance and nonsense, who mentioned any of that? I hope these kids continue to get an education and have the opportunity to make their own mind. Where is my intolerance Oh wait, are you just trying to argue for no reason lol. Not all liberals are bad, same with not all conservatives from my point of view. EDIT: Though as a writer, I do like you crayon symbolism haha.
