This likely won’t make the MSM or be but a blip in the national news cycle if it does, so I bring it here. Richard Overton, a WW2 veteran born in 1906, recently had his entire life savings stolen from him. If you’ve not heard about this patriot, I encourage you to watch the many videos and stories created about him. He credits cigars, whiskey, and God as the secret to his longevity.

He still drives, lives in his own home he purchased in 1945, and has himself a girlfriend. Day to day expenses would be my guess.

Maybe they feel as we do and prefer to take justice into their own hands.




More likely they’re buying drugs and plane tickets as I type. One can hope.

Let’s raise some money for this baw.


We have people with gofundme’s because they can’t pick the right bathroom with more money than this.

He still has SS income, and it isn't likely he lost much. Plus he's 112 and doesn't need much more. Some of you are pretty gullible.
