Bottom line​

J.D. Vance is a military veteran of the Marine Corps who served honorably, including a deployment to Iraq—his role was in communications/public affairs rather than combat.
 
So sorry for you.

I went to the NFC Championship.
Parked for Free on Airport Way.
Walked 15 minutes to Lumen Field.
No Homeless in site, no danger.

The game was Fantastic, but ONLY for a real fan. Not YOU.

The area around Lumen was 100% safe.

After the game, we walked the Northern route back to Airpot Way, 20 Minutes.

Gosh, there was NEVER a single threat.

Sorry you missed it.
I went to the NFC Championship game against SF years ago. That’s when Sherman batted down the pass. In the final seconds and Malcolm Smith intercepted. It. Great game.



That was the last game I attended. I was a Seahawks season ticket holder from their first season until a couple of years ago. I let them go.


I shared the tickets with my brother. I didn’t attend the NFC Championship games against Carolina and Green Bay.

So are you trying to say that military combat correspondents don't see combat? Who do you think escorts those civilian correspondents who film all of those msm combat scenes you WATCH from your TV? Hint--JD Vance and other military journalists. Try again.

JD Vance has stated that he was "lucky to escape any real fighting" during his deployment in Iraq, where he served as a military journalist and combat correspondent. While he did not experience direct combat, his role involved documenting military operations, which could involve danger.

Let it go dude.
You will counter me on any issue.
That is what you do.

Try this.
The Seattle Supersonics returning to the NBA.
Thoughts?
 
It got to be to be too big of a pain in the butt to ride the ferry over from Bremerton. The ferry schedule had you leaving in the third quarter or you had wait hours for another ride.

We had great seats. First level row V 40 yard line.


Plus I’ve become intolerant of big crowds

Fair enough.

Well, I've been to over 50 Seahawk Games and over 100 Mariner Games.
Sonics were earlier, so maybe 25 Sonic Games.

Plus ONE Seattle Pilots Game in 1969.

I went to one Pilots game against the Yankees. My cousin and I went to the locker room door hoping to to get autographs. Joe Pepitone opened the door, looked at me and said “kid, you want a bat?” It was cracked, but I took it.

After serving in the Marine Corps and private industry. You're just too stupid to try and play Gotcha, moron. Stick to playing xbox and smoking rocks.
 
I grew up and live across the bay from Seattle. I know more about it than you could ever know.

You liberals turned a great city into a shit hole.

I used to go to Seattle regularly to the downtown restaurants and bars. Half of which are now gone.

I always felt safe, now when I go to Seattle I ensure that I am armed. I don’t go there unless there is some special event I want to attend. I quit going to sporting events because of the shit hole liberalism turned it in to.

I lived down the road, in Portland, twice and visited Seattle a lot, before and after Californication ruined both. They were very affordable then and laid back places before the mobs of refugees invaded.
