Hard to misinterpret.....I prefer those who were not captured
But I guess vets are willing to sell out their honor as long as the guy isn't a Democrat
Any United States veteran who voted for Donald J Trump is a ******* hypocrite
You personally, have besmirched EVERY man who died in Vietnam
You have besmirched EVERY POW
Really? How? By pointing out they were NOT insulted or dishonored? Your level of immaturity is astounding. Children should not discuss adult maters they are unable to understand.
You continually hold up your status as a Vietnam veteran as one of your proudest moments in your life
Donald J Trump mocked those stupid enough to fight in the war and paid a doctor to claim he had heel spurs to avoid service. Fighting in Vietnam was for suckers....Not Donald J Trump
Even worse, he mocked those who were captured while serving their country. They were not heroes, they dishonored their country by being captured. They were lesser veterans.....dishonored by their captivity
As a veteran, you should be ashamed for voting for a man like Donald J Trump
I have no respect for you
You obviously live in your own fantasy reality and become petulant at any hint of actual reality. I have invited you to provide any evidence of any reality to your insults and slander and all you do is add insults and slander.
I mention my status as a Vietnam veteran because the subject was veterans in general a Vietnam veterans in particular.
Who knows more about that than who has been there and done that? Certainly not some lame-ass child whose only related experience comes from movies and tv.
Yes, I am proud of my service because I proved I was willing to risk death or maiming to do the right thing. If you haven't walked the walk you haven't earned the right to sneer at those who have. But I was most certainly no volunteer and would avoided the whole thing had there been an honorable way to do so. A medical deferment was an honorable way to do so. I was willing to risk everything to avoid dishonor. If you want to discuss honor with me let's see some evidence you have ever had any or even understand the concept.
I think Pres. Trump's statement was related to a certain individual's being labeled "hero" who committed dishonorable, perhaps treasonous, acts while a POW. His actions might be understandable and forgivable where torture was involved but they were certainly NOT "heroic".
Don't presume to think you understand veterans (especially not dead ones)or honor. It's unlikely you ever will.
