Yeah, well, sometimes you have to get over it when somebody calls you a name or does something you don’t like. It is called ignoring the inconsequential and living your life as an ambitious adult.
but I do think there comes a point where a person is high enough profile to be exempt from compulsory service.””
Some would say beating people senseless for big bucks is not furthering the cause of civilization. Most people think they should be high profile too. It isn’t like this moron was some kind of top scientific mind. The world would not have missed him.
Here is a tip. Deferments are not equivalent to being a convicted draft dodger.
So the Quakers and the Amish? Do we shoot them too?”
NO, because the Quakers and Amish are honest. Clay was a cheap con-artist.
explain the difference. The practical difference.
Ali never applied for a deferment to my knowledge. He just said “I ain’t going”. Trump said “I ain’t going” through 7 successful deferments. Seven.
One was very clear in his conviction, and one pulled every string he could muster.
I think you are blinded by Muslim Ali’s bling and his physical star power. Being a media star tends to blind many people to their faults, foibles, and crimes.
Not at all. He did some good things, and he did some rotten things. He treated Joe Frazier horribly.
Of course, you could make the same argument about how many on Freerepublic now view Donald Tump. they are blind to his “faults, foibles and crimes”, no?
Please. Nugent bragged about it, Cheney said he had “other priorities”, Limbaugh had a sore butthole, and Donald claimed that going to high school gave him more military training than people actually in the military while dragging down a bunch of deferments. They’re all a bunch of draft Dodgers, and assuming you have access to the internets, you can do your own f-ing research

Muslim World Hails Muhammad Ali as ‘Symbol for Muslims’

Story by the Associated Press; curated by Carly Hoilman.
CAIRO (AP) — Of all Muhammad Ali’s travels in the Muslim world, his 1964 trip to Egypt was perhaps the most symbolic, a visit remembered mostly by an iconic photo of the boxing great happily shaking hands with a smiling Gamal Abdel-Nasser, Egypt’s nationalist and popular president.
It was a mutually beneficial meeting: Nasser was viewed with suspicion and mistrust by the United States, but was revered across much of Africa and Asia for his support of movements fighting European colonial powers. For Ali, the new heavyweight boxing champion, being received by one of “imperialist” America’s chief enemies announced his arrival on the global stage as a powerful voice of change.

One small problem, deferments are not draft dodges in the sense they are completely legitimate. What the muslim did was clearly a blatant violation of the law of the land. Being a black muslim gives him no right to ignore said law. See the difference?
I was wondering what other muslims you support?
This guy. Seemed like a good guy. Or was he not to be trusted either?

Wow, really got your head up your rectal cavity on this, don’t you? At least Ali had the guts to take the consequences that came with not going. Which is more than can be said for the folks on this list.
Yeah, he was a good muslim. sarc. The ones who took down the world trade center had guts too, didn’t they? Mo Ali was also a good friend of Louie Farrakhan, another gutsy muslim.
Sarc? So the guy who volunteered to fight and went to the Middle East and died is met with sarcasm? More guts than you have i must say.
Your Ft. Hood hero, is that who you refer to?
