Not racist at all. All said was where I have worked they were crappy workers. Most of them came in late or wouldn’t show up at all. Wouldn’t call in and then bitch that got in trouble. They always complained about what they had to do or why they shouldn’t have to do it. Nothing I said is racist. Calling someone African Negroe is not racist. That’s what they are.
Im considered racist because I’m white. At least that what I keep seeing and hearing from left so if you think what said is racist then proud to be a white male.
I work a good bit that’s why I don’t post much. I work so I don’t have to live off of the government.
To let you know, I rejoice when I see the death and murders of the likes in Chicago, Atlanta, Detroit and New York. Anytime a Democrat dies I’m happy.

A guy like Austin would be the first to pull the trigger and shoot his own people in the back if we went to full civil war. He is no different than the DC cop that shot the unarmed female in the capital building.

The french have had opportunities to fight and have advantages, they just cut and run. Diplomacy has a better chance of reducing lose of life at this point, subject to the variable that are known.

The military are not going to tell those troops at the airport to go out in a blaze of glory.

Damn, GFT...this is the 2nd time today that I'm calling you out for a poor choice of words. What reward exactly? The saving of several thousand American lives? THAT reward?

And as I mentioned in another thread, yeah - this is a shitburger. But until command nuts up and comes to the following conclusions, all is lost -

1) We will leave no American behind
2) (To quote Ed Harris from Apollo 13): "Failure is not an option." (Gene Kranz didn't say it, it's from the screenplay).

Former US soldier discusses how myths, bad data, desire for promotions, corruption and waste underpinned the Afghan war.

So, you play the lottery and you win? Chances are you lose.

You're not going to save several thousand Americans, your comments don't make any sense.

You can't be serious.

And you're awfully damned callous with the lives of American citizens. I really can't wrap my head around your indifference. Surely, YOU can't be serious.

Anyone who was at Bragg when Austin was "Dragon 6" knows full well how well he handles tough situations.

Case in point - the Drinkwine debacle.

Spoiler alert: Frank Helmick, his successor, fixed it.
