He had driven nearly two hours to receive paperwork beginning the process of removing him from the military under President Donald Trump’s transgender service ban. Another lieutenant, a close friend, would hand him the documents. His battalion commander would join by video. People he considered family would help carry out a policy he is suing to overturn.
Don’t serve a pedophile war criminal anyway.
It’s weird how that’s not why people enlist.
It’s frustrating that people don’t understand the massive benefits that come with army service. Not a lot of jobs let you hunt civilians for sport, it’s really tough if that’s what you want to do for a living. It’s basically the only real option.
Ffs Graham Platner was being hailed as the Democrat’s hero for a full year despite his cocaine-fueled past, and nazi tattoo which he got in celebration after iraq slaughter, , and video documented war crimes , and Blackwater and Israeli IDF associations , and raping iraqi girls , and 5-times service with convicted war ceiminal Blackwater mercenary aka Constellis , … Yet the moment he rapes an american girl he had to drop out! When all he ever wanted was just to kill people for an adventure !
You have to do it the Graham Platner way! She, sorry…he, would go to jail unless he agreed to work for and enrich the epistien class and weapon manufacturers fighting israel wars!
Hope this guy gets some peace after all this. It must be crushing to have the people you stood beside, who you thought had your back treat you this way.
Isn’t the whole thing about being in the army that you follow orders without question? Trump is the commander in chief and these guys are just following orders.
To be clear - I don’t agree with any of this, but I’m also not that surprised.
Wow, no actually. Completely wrong from start to finish! US soldiers are (at least were in more normal times) trained that in no case will the Nuremberg defense (“just following orders”) protect them should they choose to follow illegal orders.
Of course they’re also psychologically broken down and remolded to be a media-illiterate imitation of Rambo, remorseless killers rendered much less fit to reintegrate into civilian life. So I’m not saying it’s a simple situation soldiers find themselves in either - but illegal orders are customarily considered invalid.
Well yeah, but we aren’t talking about illegal orders here unfortunately.
I was confining my response to your specific comment, but yes.
I say good for him! No one should ever serve a country that doesn’t want them. In fact, I think anyone that enlists does so knowing what trump’s military represents, and therefore is an enemy of American citizens.
