Semper Fi, sargent!! The Moron in chief should not be trusted. The Marine has BALLS to state what most Americans are thinking!!
Defense Department where is HIS RIGHT to FREE SPEECH????
Written and spelled like someone who never spent a day in uniform.
Right?
When you become a member of our armed forces on active duty there ARE some rights you waive. Freedom of Speech is one of them. I’m not an expert on Military Judicial Code and such, but there are very strict guidelines as to what active military personnel are allowed to say and do, and very strict rules regarding WHEN and HOW a person on active duty can express their rights. Anything that would give the impression that their speech could be taken as representative of the US Armed Forces as a group, or a particular branch of our armed forces as a group (in this instance the USMC). They can’t give the appearance that their political speech is supported or sanctioned by the government itself, or their particular branch of service. This is why those liberal protesters who show up IN UNIFORM at the “anti-war” protests in the past have actually gotten in trouble at times - not allowed to protest in uniform.
I think the fact that this brave, courageous, outspoken, Patriotic Marine unfortunately used military assets while exercising the rights he didn’t waive is the reason this is even a problem... Silly little mistakes that the “other side” can grab a hold of and shake until the whole effort is destroyed.
God bless this man for speaking out, may God protect him from any little oversights he could get in trouble for out of this.
For the rest of you military folks out there - remember you won’t be able to be there when the time comes to take a stand if you’ve gotten yourself kicked out by the time push comes to shove - just something to think about... I know there are many more members of the military that agree with everything this man has said, but decide the risk of speaking out and the consequences of such aren’t the best route to take - and so they quietly observe and when the time comes they’ll not get caught up in whatever the orders are and will be able to directly influence the way things go at that stage (I think it’s a matter of time with the Marxists in power).
