While off-duty, a Marine Sergeant by the name of Gary Stein has been somewhat open about his dislike for Barack Obama. In particular, he said that he would not obey an unlawful order and gave the example of being ordered to confiscate the guns of American citizens.
Gary Kreep, president of the United States Justice Foundation (USJF) is making a last ditch effort to help prevent the Marines from giving Stein what amounts to a dishonorable discharge on April 5th.
“This is truly an urgent situation,” Kreep says. “The Marine Corps is moving at blistering speed to make an example of Sergeant Stein. They will throw him out of the Marines this Thursday, unless we can persuade a U. S. District Court Judge to intervene. AND, they want to remove him from the Corps under 'less than honorable' circumstances, a finding normally reserved for criminals!”
As for Stein's facebook posts being made known to Department of Defense officials, Kreep points to recent reports that the Obama administration is closely monitoring social network sites. News of these tactics even roused Fox News Channel's Greta Van Susteren (link below).
Kreep seems to think it quite possible that these tactics may have been used to single out Stein. “I imagine that one of the Obama campaign's "AttackWatch" staff members, using the high-tech computer monitoring systems that the Obama Administration employs to track criticism of Barack Obama on the social media, came across the website and reported back to the White House.
I’m glad to see that Gary Kreep is involved. He was active in the Young Americans for Freedom in the 1970’s and 1980’s.
“Also hard to argue that if it had been a Republican President’s face on a jackass, he would even have been brought up on charges.”
Wrong. When GWB ws President, we had a few enlisted who didn’t want to deploy because GWB was ‘selected, not elected’. Facing jail time, they deployed. And everyone was reminded that you do NOT make political statements while in uniform, or an civilian clothes if you have identified yourself as military.
but the congress who should impeach the Messiah for trashing the constitution, does not hold zer0bama’s feet to the fire as they should...cowards all.
“he said that he would not obey an unlawful order and gave the example of being ordered to confiscate the guns of American citizens.” ......................................... LOL, do you really think he is alone in those thoughts? He is expressing his thoughts outwardly where others remain silent. We can not sanction that kind of thoughts in this current regime. Das ist verboten! Geeez, you have to even watch out if you try to defend yourself from criminals these days. Why do I feel that the Thought Police are out there, and they work hand in hand with the Propagandists?
I can't stand that POS Obama, but he is the commander in chief, legitimate or not. This Marine knew better, he will have to accept the consequences.
This.
The FReepers making the moronic claim that he had a duty to "uphold the constitution" are advocating chaos.
What they're saying is that any-ol' enlisted guy can simply throw discipline and the UCMJ to the wind if he decides that someone or something in their chain of command is unconstitutional.
Dumbasses.
If he was specifically told to “STFU” about his personal politics, but did so anyway, he should simply face administrative punishment. A less than honorable discharge is way over the top.
Yup.. and the ONLY time I mentioned anything political, was the night I was in the NCO club and Clinton won his first term election... I told my friends that I was NOT re-enlisting...
Oh, forgot to mention HOW I said it; “I’m not going to be under the command of a fag loving, pot smoking, draft dodging pussyjerk”. ;)
40 years ago, I’d have agreed with you. But not today, not with our government in the hands of a mad man. I agree with .30Carbine above.
Loyalty goes both ways.
we have been free since 02/07/2012, legally according to the Declaration of Independence, paragraph 2, Thomas Jefferson left us the key to getting it done

It has come to my attention that a lot of people want to know who I am. I will offer a part of the base of what I know without endangering myself or others. The basis of the knowledge I hold is extraordinary in its scope (content and reach) and those whom I am in contact with.
Not being willing to take anyone’s word for it, I went behind the scenes and found who ‘they’ were talking to. This involves most of the ‘news’ web sites many are familiar with, credible or not.
My military service includes nuclear weapons, very high security clearances, and Vietnam. Most of the “incidents” from this time forward, I was involved in at some level, major, minor, and local. I started in the field of information in the late nineties and progressed from that time forward. I use a portion of the old cold war spy network, people in several sensitive positions, and those who agree to pass along info no one else gets. There are several contact avenues that also offer info, military, political and citizen eyes. In all, an extreme information highway.
The validity of what I’ve sent out has been the best at the time, almost all of which was verifiable. And yes, I was called on to prove a lot of it at first. This was not an easy task and caused me to be able to protect and out the info at the same time, I learned how.
Forces in the main stream media took most of what I offered and called it everything but true, and I was a nightmare head case trying to cause problems through the use of my imagination, and the internet...
Those who own the media control its content, most of which is questionable at best...I know, because I was directly involved in a few of those ‘international and local incidents’ that were reported as something else altogether...So I have first hand knowledge of this.
I have been a patriot since taking my oath of service in the 60’s. I had always been raised to be a patriot, but that oath haunted me all the time...until I decided I would start taking action.
The present information I have shared comes from a plan I was privileged to read some years ago. To date it has been in the works well over twenty (20) years. Many old fashioned old timers knew better than the direction our country was headed, even way back then, so they started writing the plan. It deals with offering the basic freedoms our country was founded on, and how to return to that freedom.
My research extends into a lot of law, application, and the origin of law itself. The offerings used in the manner in which I stated them to be used, when used correctly, I never lost. This includes local, state, federal, and international applications.
A group of individual people in individual states, has completed the paperwork that sets our nation free.
It is my hope that we all can keep our freedom this time...that is up to We The People.
The extent of the information offered on the recording is, at this time, the limit I use to protect the many who are involved in our efforts. If anyone who reads this believes that freedom can still be available, then I urge all those to play the recording to others of a like mind.
A qualified person does not have to be a rocket scientist. Try finding someone who is so honest it hurts to be around them. A person who knows the meaning of right and wrong according to their conscience...and who listens to it. In order to start to turn things around, it will take as many people as possible to stand up in any way they can. Put together groups all over our country at the local level. Get everyone to know each other and look into using your group to put the right kind of people in office.
Who am I to speak and by what authority do I do so?
•It is each persons constitutional ‘duty’ to remove a repressive government...the present one qualifies.
•I feel a moral obligation to stop the theft so hungry children in our own country of plenty, can eat.
•It ain’t doing this for me.
•It is for my children and grandchildren, because their future hangs in the balance...I feel it is the least I can do for them. As one voice in the wilderness...I CRY FREEDOM...!

Soldiers dont have those rights. You cannot publicly go negative on your chain of command and keep your job at the same time.
No, it isnt coming to this. It has always been the rule. If you criticize the CIC while in the military, you are giving aid and comfort to the enemy.
Im sure some of them were discharged, if they were found out.
