He's a coward. No need to defend it.
Once again, I've only defended the "fake medical diagnosis." I've said he clearly did not want to go, and am not arguing your right to view that as cowardice.

Supports that he did not want to go to Vietnam, absolutely. He used the resources available to him to avoid going. Whether that makes his a coward is up to the individual
How many on this board calling him a coward have served, how many in Iraq/Afghanistan specifically? You may have, I don't know. But for most that didnt they didn't have to avoid it because it was voluntary, so they have the luxury to call others under different circumstances a coward.
That lifestyle is not for everyone, and I'm glad it's currently a choice unlike back in Vietnam. We are talking about wars not specifically in defense of the homeland.

I have, in both and others.
He's not just a coward because of his fake bone spurs.

Are you an idiot? Most college kids got out of serving in Vietnam
Yep! Knew several dudes slightly older than myself who used that exact angle to get out of going to Nam.

Good on you, I served too. You are clearly not a coward but because others haven't doesn't mean they have to be.

Ignoring the fake bones spurs comment because we don't know, you are free to bring up those other reasons for discussion if you want. I may agree with you on those, I may not.

I, and others already have. You are free to read the thread.

Then I will get to those when I can go back and read the 8 page thread. The discussion between me and you involved cowardice due to (fake) bone spurs, as that is what you specifically replied to in calling him a coward. And evolved into a more general "does avoiding service make you a coward"

I think Trump is horrible but you can't blame him for trying to get out of the draft. Every kid that could did it too.
The poor working class kids that couldn't afford college were the ones that got shipped off.
Of course he also needs to shut his face when criticizing the ones that did. But that's Trump. He runs his head too much.

I don't care what it involved. You stated I could bring in other information. I let you know that it's already available.

what our back and forth involved is all that was relevant to our back and forth.

I did, when you mentioned there was more you wanted to include

Fair enough, I had not read the whole thread and will look into it

Wrong. When you ask for information that was already provided, that information is relevant.

Not to our discussion about bone spurs making him a coward. That is what you literally responded to and is what I was discussing
Once you said he is a coward for reasons other than his bone spurs then yes other information became relevant. I asked what information and you let me know it was in the prior pages of the thread. Nothing more nothing less

It was already relevant because it was already in the thread. It doesn't disappear because of a reply to one of your posts.
I shouldn't have to explain how discussions work.
Posted on 9/30/17 at 8:35 pm to DisplacedBuckeye
I wasn't arguing those things. I was arguing using bone spurs to avoid the draft, mentioned it repeatedly. It was when you mentioned other things that other things became relevant
I shouldn't have to explain how our discussion went. I'm down to alternate attempting to get the last word though.
