True combat vets will condemn those posers each and every time, you have no idea how strongly we feel about this, and you never will understand our hatred towards these fakers.

I fucking hate these stolen valor wannbe's, GGJohn Jan 2016 #1

their world is a video game roguevalley Jan 2016 #43

Yep, Call of Duty and Medal of Honor is their idea of combat experience. GGJohn Jan 2016 #45

Any time a gunnut tells me he's a Marine, TxVietVet Jan 2016 #49

I couldn't agree more. GGJohn Jan 2016 #52

PLease do and pass it on. TxVietVet Jan 2016 #55

Thank you, I'll use it against some loony tune conservanazi's I know. eom. GGJohn Jan 2016 #57

and hum this tune to them Marty McGraw Jan 2016 #84

LOL. GGJohn Jan 2016 #89

Oh Yeah, Mbrow Jan 2016 #67

Careful with the term zipperhead, that's what we called the VC in Vietnam, GGJohn Jan 2016 #70

Sorry about that Mbrow Jan 2016 #71

Understood, but some here, as I initially did, may misunderstand the term and alert on it. GGJohn Jan 2016 #72

I'm With You GG ProfessorGAC Jan 2016 #98

The ones I like are the Navy Seal fakes. randys1 Jan 2016 #101

They most certainly do not, GGJohn Jan 2016 #102

Same here...Happy New Year! randys1 Jan 2016 #104

Mark me down too DVRacer Jan 2016 #124

I worked with a guy once who claimed to be a martial arts trainer for the Seals. whopis01 Jan 2016 #145

I know one goofy fake Seal. TxVietVet Jan 2016 #117

Bet right wingers don't turn on him like they might if a "liberal" were to fake serving. Hoyt Jan 2016 #2

I know for a fact that every conservative friend of mine would call him out in a heartbeat, GGJohn Jan 2016 #3

I disagree, I think right wingers, even friends, will give him a break because he's into gunz, is a Hoyt Jan 2016 #5

I really don't care if you disagree, I'm talking about friends of mine who GGJohn Jan 2016 #7

I doubt it. Conservatives are almost universally accepting of racists, gunners, anti-government type Hoyt Jan 2016 #9

One more time Hoyt, you, not being a vet, or a combat vet, GGJohn Jan 2016 #12

Racism, guns and anti-government ideology in 2016 are more important than stolen valor to Hoyt Jan 2016 #16

As I said Hoyt, you will never be able to understand the hatred we have towards these fakers, GGJohn Jan 2016 #17

I don't doubt they hate fakers, but they love racist, gun loving white wing intimidaters more. Hoyt Jan 2016 #21

Yep, you're just proving my point Hoyt, GGJohn Jan 2016 #23

I understand, believe me. I don't think most of your conservative vet friends are going to denounce Hoyt Jan 2016 #25

Once again Hoyt, I don't give a rat's ass what you think my friends will do, I know them, GGJohn Jan 2016 #26

But will they turn on him for being a gun loving, racist, white wing terrorist? Hoyt Jan 2016 #29

You can doubt all you want, you don't know them like I do. eom. GGJohn Jan 2016 #31

Hoyt, I see your point but the vets are correct HassleCat Jan 2016 #114

I swear hoyt lancer78 Jan 2016 #140

This vet agrees with you... TipTok Jan 2016 #19

Thank you. GGJohn Jan 2016 #20

Well I just put your theory to a test with a RWer Veitnam vet GummyBearz Jan 2016 #110

Thank you, my point exactly. GGJohn Jan 2016 #111

I will GummyBearz Jan 2016 #112

As much as i despise CG in everything else as a fellow vet. I will agree with him on this point. Katashi_itto Jan 2016 #146

Don’t waste your time dealing with idiots. flt rsk Jan 2016 #78

We'll see if he is expelled by the Bundy Militia vet white wingers. Hoyt Jan 2016 #118

Only if any of those loons are actual combat vets and not posers. GGJohn Jan 2016 #120

According to news reports there are several vets among militia thugs. You let me know when they Hoyt Jan 2016 #121

No, according to the news reports I've seen, there are vets headed to the scene, GGJohn Jan 2016 #122

Here are some names, you watch for them expelling the poser. Hoyt Jan 2016 #133

Fair enough. GGJohn Jan 2016 #134

I'm not so sure. bvar22 Jan 2016 #11

I have right wing acquaintances, not friends, who are fine with racists, gun nuts, anti-government Hoyt Jan 2016 #13

Your are so wrong Hoyt. eom. GGJohn Jan 2016 #15

Fine, GG, provide some quotes from racist, gun loving, white wingers severely criticizing this guy. Hoyt Jan 2016 #18

Find your own quotes, you made the accusation, I'm not doing your bidding. GGJohn Jan 2016 #22

You're either missing or avoiding the point sarge43 Jan 2016 #73

But, will conservative vets criticize his racism, terrorism, etc. Hoyt Jan 2016 #79

Depends if those conservative vets are white racists, gun toters who are ok with militia bs. sarge43 Jan 2016 #85

If they are a 21st century conservative, my bet is they are. And that's my point. Hoyt Jan 2016 #106

I think there is a difference between combat vets and run of the mill cons. randys1 Jan 2016 #103

I will accept this from you. My experience is most CONSERVATIVE vets are like Ollie North, Randy Hoyt Jan 2016 #108

Thank You!!!! GGJohn Jan 2016 #14

Yup 1939 Jan 2016 #38

So true. eom. GGJohn Jan 2016 #40

I have found this to be true with all military vets, conservative or liberal DawgHouse Jan 2016 #66

We'll see if the vet occupiers expel him. My guess, love of guns and white wing ideology trumps Hoyt Jan 2016 #135

Maybe they'll get 2naSalit Jan 2016 #4

He'll just bring them twinkies and more ammo and they'll make amends. Racists stick together, Hoyt Jan 2016 #6

You know catnhatnh Jan 2016 #87

I am not sure where 2naSalit Jan 2016 #91

I think you misread catnhatnh Jan 2016 #94

oh... 2naSalit Jan 2016 #97

I believe that catnhatnh was replying to Hoyt. eom. GGJohn Jan 2016 #95

Yeah ... the article could have "suggested" that this guy was undercover FBI ... 1StrongBlackMan Jan 2016 #88

I will admit taht if he is 2naSalit Jan 2016 #90

If "Shrub" wasn't called out on it, this guy won't be either. He gets a pass. n/t brewens Jan 2016 #27

Not from vets, especially combat vets, and this combat vet does call out GGJohn Jan 2016 #28

Exactly. Hoyt Jan 2016 #30

Wrong again Hoyt, but that's not surprising as you've never worn the uniform and GGJohn Jan 2016 #33

Actually, I did wear a uniform (albeit in college) and bought into all the gung ho BS for 3+ Hoyt Jan 2016 #41

You can think all you want, but I know them and I know what they think of stolen valor types, GGJohn Jan 2016 #42

Will they denonounce their militia actions is the question. Hoyt Jan 2016 #44

My conservative friends already have, they call it stupid, childish, immature, GGJohn Jan 2016 #47

Do you think they are terrorist? Do you think they should be convicted of a felony and barred from Hoyt Jan 2016 #61

Terrorists? No. GGJohn Jan 2016 #62

Well, I think they are terrorists, but we basically agree otherwise. Better quit while Hoyt Jan 2016 #64

Yeah, we wouldn't want people to know that we actually agree on something here, GGJohn Jan 2016 #65

Geez! Get a room, you guys! pinboy3niner Jan 2016 #74

Only if Hoyt pays for it, GGJohn Jan 2016 #75

They can't claim conservative veterans would denounce this guy in anyway, brewens Jan 2016 #36

I detest Bush, but his wasn't case of stolen valor, he never claimed to be in combat, GGJohn Jan 2016 #39

Bush was pretty close though. Posing as someone that fullfilled his obligation. brewens Jan 2016 #50

Once again, Exactly. They treated one of best from Vietnam era as a piece of garbage. Hoyt Jan 2016 #48

And again Hoyt, that wasn't a case of stolen valor, as this thread is about. eom. GGJohn Jan 2016 #53

Wasn't posting to you. Conservative vets treated a "non-posing" real hero like crap is the point. Hoyt Jan 2016 #59

Hell, rightwingers turn against liberals who actually serve! n/t arcane1 Jan 2016 #83

Good point. They sure went after Kerry. Hoyt Jan 2016 #99

Which was bullshit and uncalled for. GGJohn Jan 2016 #100

Politics don't play a role DVRacer Jan 2016 #126

I wouldn't have thought to give kudos to the Daily Mail but this one flamingdem Jan 2016 #24

They're all wannabees malaise Jan 2016 #32

The only combat most of these loons have seen is playing Call of Duty or GGJohn Jan 2016 #34

That's why they loved Bush and Cheney and now Trump malaise Jan 2016 #35

Yup, and don't forget Rmoney, GGJohn Jan 2016 #37

Typical Repug lark Jan 2016 #46

Bogus, there is no such thing as a retired Marine, "Once a Marine, always a Marine"... Brother Buzz Jan 2016 #51

Yup, a Marine never stops being a Marine, they're forever a Marine. eom. GGJohn Jan 2016 #54

After some time, they stop saluting the brass, JustABozoOnThisBus Jan 2016 #69

Do me a favor and tell your fellow Marines to STOP telling me how they won the war in Vietnam... Brother Buzz Jan 2016 #77

I was Army, and, just because a Marine retires ... JustABozoOnThisBus Jan 2016 #81

Retired Army here also, GGJohn Jan 2016 #92

When I hear bu$hit like that from Marines TxVietVet Jan 2016 #119

It is all "pretend and role playing" for them. They live in a false glinda Jan 2016 #56

If there were a reason to fight a war, it would be to draft chickenhawks like these guys into combat muntrv Jan 2016 #58

Yep, they'd find out real fast, that unlike GGJohn Jan 2016 #60

oh dear Skittles Jan 2016 #63

Another piece of crap that lied about serving in the military. Rex Jan 2016 #76

What kind of exemption did you get to stay in 40 years? Elwood P Dowd Jan 2016 #128

I started out as a WO1 as a helicopter pilot in Vietnam flying slicks and snakes, GGJohn Jan 2016 #129

Did you start out a Rucker and end at Rucker? Elwood P Dowd Jan 2016 #130

Started at Ft. Rucker, but ended at Ft. Riley. GGJohn Jan 2016 #132

Ft Riley, Kansas. That was where my father mustered out from in early 1946 after WWII. (nm) Elwood P Dowd Jan 2016 #136

IMHO, WWII vets are true heros, they really literally saved the world from an evil tyranny, GGJohn Jan 2016 #138

What was that name for you W01 chopper guys.....wogee or something like that. Elwood P Dowd Jan 2016 #139

Sorry it took so long to get back to you, internet was down, a tower fell down. GGJohn Jan 2016 #148

He'll just go looking for a different audience, but just as gullible. lpbk2713 Jan 2016 #144
