Does This Ballistic Vest Make Me Look Fat?
Canada Free Press ^ | 06/08/15 | Michael Shannon

The Marines have had a great deal of trouble finding a few good women. So far the Infantry Officer Course remains undefeated

Developments on the women–in–combat front are cause for concern, even for leftists that have made cognitive dissonance a way of life, because the women don’t seem to be holding up their end of the ideological bargain.

If Ranger Sgt. Rosie Riveter is going to be leaping out of aircraft and putting paid to ISIS misogynists — either by a well-placed burst from her rifle or silently dispatching him with the Camel Clutch (first made famous by the Iron Shiek) — it would be a big help if she’d quit complaining about her shoes.

I was under the impression that if a shoe didn’t hurt, a female wasn’t interested in wearing it, but evidently that’s not the case. Females deployed in Afghanistan are complaining they lack access to combat boots designed especially for them. This is where the dissonance really bites.

Idiocy. Even the most cursory knowledge of combat will tell you that women and weak men have no place in it.

It makes you look like a scumsucking blogpimp.

You post from only one source and never make a comment.

You suck.

Great article! Politically correct folks (see Jenner fans) won’t like it, but it’s great.

I don’t think it would matter if home skillet posted an article about eating disabled children.

Seems hell-bent on posting every word from a single blog.

Ever wonder WHY?

Right about the same time the Navy went to SeaWorld and recruited the SEALS.

“In the rear with the gear”

Liberal need to know just because you are not on the front lines of combat does not mean you are not important. I forget the statistics but would not be surprised if, for every combat troop, there are 50 behind him supporting the mission. That’s where women belong. Sorry to be a white patriarchal privileged male but that’s the way it is.
