Raenir Salazar posted:What's wrong with disassembling your gun on watch? Aren't you just verifying your service side arm is in top working condition? Wouldn't want it to jam or misfire right? Because it can’t shoot when it’s disassembled, and the point of having it while on watch is in case you have to shoot it.

There’s a band along the border that marines are blanket banned from without a really good reason like having family there. Travel to any foreign country requires additional authorization for your leave request and all sorts of other hoops.

Wyoming disenfranchises California in the same way LA, SF, and SD disenfranchise the entire rest of the state, or Chicago disenfranchises everybody else in Illinois. Getting rid of the senate might solve some problems but the whole “only coastal cities matter” thing would rapidly eclipse that.

UP THE BUM NO BABY posted:Very few people live on the mostly uninhabited land you are so ignorantly defending you dense motherfucker So are you intentionally playing along with the right-wing narrative that coastal democrats hate rural America or are you just that dumb. Is it really hard to understand why people might support a party that tells them comforting lies while screwing them over instead of supporting a party that openly insults and neglects them? Campaigning in Iowa is a pointless waste of time but like maybe actual tax reform and green initiatives and social welfare programs and public education reform would actually be a cool thing for the democrats to support rather than making noises about and just going along with furthering capitalist exploitation of our natural resources. Plus cities are a blight on the planet and responsible for an insane amount of the national carbon footprint but let’s keep acting like they’re the best ever

My Spirit Otter posted:Can you not turn down postings in the us military??? You think I would’ve spent 2.5 years at twentynine palms breathing sewage every time I went to the PX because I was sent to a unit that didn’t have a purpose for my MOS but somehow had the billets for two of them if I had a choice in the matter?

No really, it’s nice to feel nostalgic for the Marines United days when I had to sit in a bunch of discussion groups where a MSgt calmly explained how it was the women’s fault and definitely not the male marines that can’t be trusted with a picture let alone a rifle.

Red flags include but are not limited to: Calling it "special forces" instead of special operations, MARSOC, Raiders, SOF, JSOC, or any of the other names for it. SF is only the Army green berets The government not being able to confirm or deny his background is dumb as hell. IF IF IF he'd actually done anything deniable to that level there would be a cover story/identity in place beforehand Being recalled for anything other than getting punished for something, 9/11, or the 2006-ish surge.

Guys with special operations units that are okay with sharing some of their unclassified stories are great, though. Like the my OIC for a while who told me about the time his team forgot it was Christmas and got super drunk and just started fighting each other. Had to try to come up with a cover story to explain to his wife why he didn’t Skype.

Mandatory vasectomies and birth control for all servicemembers IMO. Maybe allow you to have children during your second contract but nobody in their first 5 years in the military should be having children. Nobody in their 6+ years either but if servicemembers aren't having kids that'll really mess up the current trend of most servicemembers being from a military family.

My GTC had my name spelled wrong on it. My S-1 chief typed it in wrong when starting the paperwork, I couldn’t change it when I filled in my part of the paperwork, so I told him and entered a note in the notes section of the paperwork, the bank promptly ignored it and issued it with the wrong name. Command told me to just use it anyways.
