This seems like a disingenuous argument. My grandparents fought in WW2, and never killed anyone. That doesn't mean they weren't patriotic. I'm not sure what you are getting at.kybkh wrote: Wed Sep 26, 2018 12:43 pm Called the local AM show today to comment on Democratic candidate Amy McGrath's ad.
Her ad goes like this: 'I flew 89 combat missions so I am a patriot'.
My comment was "I appreciate she flew 89 combat missions, but we all know that your patriotism is measured by body count not the number of missions she flew. I mean if she flew 89 missions and didn't kill at least 100 people, was she really that patriotic?"
Wonder how her college campus supporters square that circle?

Yeah, it’s called being parent of a supply line. Or something as important to keep the war machine moving towards Japan or Germany.kybkh wrote: Wed Sep 26, 2018 1:56 pm >My Grandparents fought in WW2

Re: THE ERA OF TRUMP
There are lots of Military jobs that don't involve killing people. Poor argument to make that if you didn't kill anyone you weren't serving your country.kybkh wrote: Wed Sep 26, 2018 1:56 pm >My Grandparents fought in WW2

For legal reasons, we are not threatening to destroy U.S. government property with our glorious medieval siege engine. But if we wanted to, we could. But we won’t. But we could.
