Totally inappropriate. He shouldn’t be making political statements in uniform.

“Totally inappropriate. He shouldn’t be making political statements in uniform.”

His commanders do, so why can’t he since that law is no longer enforced? It is his ass that is on the line.

I think it’s appropriate when the boss wants you to kill for Allah.

The fish rots from the head...

It's what happens when you have a corrupt controlling government conducting criminal activities and operating outside of the U.S. Constitution. And all this started before Obama..

This is all part of the wheels coming off...

Nearly every single problem facing America today is caused by government at all levels.

Absolutely agree. I didn’t realize that CPOs and buck sergeants got to sound off on policy in uniform.

If we were still a nation of law, I’d agree. But, the US government has gone rogue. Cabinet members are violating their oaths of office. The President is out of control. Elections are rigged. The courts are corrupt. We are being bankrupted as the nation’s wealth is siphoned off to a select few.

When George Washington presented himself to the Continental Congress, he wore his military uniform—the one he wore in service to the King.

These men are patriots. They have a rare courage in this day of comfort and luxury. They don’t hide their faces out of cowardice. They hide their face because they represent hundreds of thousands of brothers-in-arms who feel the exact same way.

sure he should, makes it extremely clear what he is, and what his opinions are regarding illegal orders. These are not normal times we’re in and the sooner folks realize they need to pull out all the stops, the better off we’ll be.

Actually, while it is illegal, according to the Uniform Code of Military Justice, for officers to use "contemptuous words" against civilian authorities:

Any commissioned officer who uses contemptuous words against the President, the Vice President, Congress, the Secretary of Defense, the Secretary of a military department, the Secretary of Transportation, or the Governor or legislature of any State, Territory, Commonwealth, or possession in which he is on duty or present shall be punished as a court-martial may direct.

The same rules DO NOT APPLY to enlisted:

Any person subject to this chapter who– (1) violates or fails to obey any lawful general order or regulation; (2) having knowledge of any other lawful order issued by any member of the armed forces, which it is his duty to obey, fails to obey the order; or (3) is derelict in the performance of his duties; shall be punished as a court-martial may direct.

If you look closely at the uniforms in the photos, none of these are commissioned officers.

Therefore--while keeping themselves annonymous is smart to keep themselves out of trouble, they are not violating any laws or their oath to support and defend the Constitution.

But if is OK for the president to send them to die fighting in a civil war and help our enemy.....nope, they didn’t sign up for that and I am glad they are in uniform....just don’t want their faces shown so they don’t have some accident that they will die in by being on some communist eleminate list. But you must think its OK for them to die in uniform helping our muslim enemys that will kill any american if they can. Probably kill the american military sent to help them. You sound like the enemy of the US. thats sad.......
