Re: US Combat Vet Arrested for Supporting Isis
Do not presume to tell me what my leaning and beliefs are.
I will presume to tell you that you are a far right leaning Republican and not a right leaning libertarian. Your unquestioning faith, support of attacking other countries not threatening violence on the USA, your support of empire (what are they over 100 US military bases across the world) is the
antithesis of the beliefs of right leaning libertarians pertaining to the use of force.
I also think you are a white guy. You know what really gets me about you cocky white cats bumping your gums condescending to dark skinned men. When we are patient, don't snap on you, you keep with the insults. But then we check you on your own sheer--amazing even--ignorance you all have a cry fest. Then two or three of you come to each others aid. And you act like one man so treated you unjustly.
Now, I originally had my remarks on the CIA and on Hillary Clinton and Obama (I voted for Obama, just like I for Trump). But you had to come running like I personally insulted your wife. Why? My point was never that the Sergeant in the OP article did nothing wrong. My point was about:
accountability and
responsibility. And how once you reach a certain level of US Government (unless you're Trump then plenty of people are trying to make you legally accountable for damned tweet--not maiming children and destroying countries and orchestrating the lynching of a man) you are given great amounts of responsibility but apparently freed from all or at minimum most accountability.
Tusle Gabbard gets it. Because she has pointed out before that if individual regular American citizens (like this Sergeant for example) had did what the CIA has done in helping arm and fund these terrorist outfits they would be arrested and thrown in prison. Accountability. The regular Joe and Jane has it. The CIA and Hillary have zilch.
Nor do I care what you believe in.
Apparently you do, because you had to bump your gums repeatedly to me in a condescending manner.
Somebody told you, "A libertarian just believes in a fiscally conservative government for the people [not for unnecessary wars though] and doesn't want the government involved in the personal lives of people." And you thought that was it right? Just that simple?
For example I'm all for legalized prostitution. That does not mean I say prostitution is morally right. I'm a proponent of letting everyone marry who they want, 5 men marrying each other, a Mormon man marrying 100 women. I don't care. Why is the Government involved? Oh, yeah, I know why the government gotten involved in the marriage business because I've actually taken some philosophy courses, unlike you. Political philosophers viewed
the family (by which they meant procreative) as the fundamental building block, foundation, of society. Say like the state of Black-America with many single moms. Political philosophers thought it would lead to many ethical and poverty problems. Glad to see none of that happened in Black-America. Nonetheless, I have no problem with the government getting out of the marriage business totally. But getting out of, and staying in to promote x thing are two different things. I take issue with the Government becoming the Vatican and promoting morality alien to my original religion.
But I digress. The point is I don't go labeling myself libertarian. And I really don't bother fake libertarians unless they come bumping their gums attacking me as though I'm stupid. I don't demand anyone subscribe to my beliefs. But if you are less intelligent than me and attacking me as stupid well then I might have to put my typed print foot in your white privileged butt.
Have you evidence we support your Conspiracy Theory??
My major was biology. A science. So, unlike you I understand
evidence and
proof are not the same thing. I already presented evidence, far right-wing Republican.
John McCain in video (you know... what white cops use to record black suspects and the DA uses as *evidence* to prosecute them in courts with) stated--and I posted it--that members of the US Government advised President Obama to arm ISIS. That's evidence. But it can also be used in Obama's favor because McCain went on to say (and the person who put the video together edited this part out) that Obama decided not to follow their advice.
But there are other pieces of evidence.
But as I said earlier... if the other option when you look at the results of Libya is
incompetence.
I love how someone who claims--or possibly pretends--to be a right leaning libertarian takes issue with calling Big Government's fiasco in Libya as incompetence.:roll:
lamo). Which, frankly, is a rather silly claim. And don't even get me started on the same old Clinton conspiracy theories.
