I get scared when the entirety of the media seems hell bent on trying to cast the horrific, murderous acts of a coward and a traitor as though it were part of some post-traumatic stress-induced meltdown. The man had never even deployed. He VOLUNTEERED to serve in the United States Army and then got the Army to pay for his college AND give him a commission as an officer.
Why is it so hard to just say things like they are - he's a traitor. He's an ideologically motivated, treasonous coward that mercilessly killed fellow Soldiers because he was opposed to the policies of the government that gave him everything. No different from a saboteur or terrorist.
What's more, in his time spent here serving at Walter Reed "tending" to actual combat veterans that were suffering from Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder after honorably serving the country he empathized not with them - but with those that would strap explosives to their bodies and kill innocent civilians, comparing them to be as honorable as a Soldier that jumps on a grenade and sacrificies his life for that of his comrades.
This "touchy-feely" BS approach to the realities that there are nasty, evil people out there that will exploit everything this country has to offer and then stab it in the back is atrocious.
The man should be tried as a traitor - in accordance with THE only offense specified in the entirety of the Constitution, and when convicted, sentenced to be shot in the back of the head on national television on the Mall.
Of course the random nut-job that shot up an office building in Orlando today is generating more of a buzz... apparently he was upset about having been laid off a year ago and "left to rot" - so clearly a case of victimhood.
I'm sure Hasan was a "victim" of our terrible progressive, liberal, democratic western culture too.
Anon 4:01's comment post freaked me out because I think I know the guy on stilts and he's not in the armed forces and never has been. He does a lot of fire arts too. Sometimes, even on stilts!
Guys, please be polite. Remember that these people are your neighbors. I ask also that anonymous users leave some kind of tag [e.g. big green cat] for the sake of being able to follow a thread. Be respectful and have fun.
I think that this guy was out there on his stilts the entire day. He certainly added to the festivities.

Anon 4:01, I'm assuming you had multiple windows open and now everyone in the CNN comments section are wondering why you talking about stilts.
ReplyDelete-up with stilts
Could we please try to stay somewhat on topic? This has nothing to do with any sooting sprees. You can talk about them elsewhere.

ReplyDeleteWow, hope anon 4:01 feels better now.

ReplyDeleteYou know what really burns *my* buscuits? Men who leave the toilet seat up!!! You know, some folks say they're just forgetful, but that's a crock.
ReplyDeleteWhy's it so hard to call things like they are??? They're a bunch of unthinking misogynistic butt-holes, that's what I say!!!
Potato salad.
