U.S. Riots of May 2020 over George Floyd and others - ITT: a bunch of faggots butthurt about worthless internet stickers

(I also don't get why people who join the military in some random capacity get the social status they do. The US incentivises joining with gimmedats and doesn't have a very high standard for general admission. A vast swathe of these people are just warm bodies, filler.
Most of these warm bodies are PLA grunt levels of "useful". Hence the high levels of trannies, Onisions and dumbasses like this guy.)

That is why the term POG exists. It stands for Person Other than a Grunt, basically someone in the military that was not infantry / did not have a high risk of combat.

Treating someone that is a POG the same as an infantryman or person that could very likely see combat is B.S. Just look at the available jobs in that army. Close to 85% - 90% of them are jobs that you find in mundane civilian life. Sure, the pay sucks, privacy is limited, and your ass is owned by the government but you don't pay rent or need to pay for food.

As, to the man in the photo. So what? He was in the Navy? I have friends that went into the Navy who were electricians and bookkeepers. The only danger they faced was being electrocuted by incompetence or a paper cut. Another friend did electronics warfare (intelligence) on a plane (Rivet Joint). His greatest danger... airsickness.

Fuck, I was on my was to being a POG, killing terrorists by my Power Point presentation, until a convey I was in was ambushed. Even still, I don't compare what I did to what infantry went through. Heck, when I was back stateside I could kill someone with a Power Point presentation in the morning and get a damned Whopper for lunch.

Never forgetti that these same Journalists called Chief Shitting Bull from the Nicholas Sandmann incident a "Veteran". He was a refrigerator repair tech at a base in Missouri.

Got family in the military. One was a naval officer who then went on to work with the coast guard. Despite being in long enough for Operations Desert Storm Iraq and Afghanistan. He never saw a day of combat.

From a civilian view point
POGs do/can have important jobs (e.g. meteorologist for the overseas air bases, medical staff, et al), and the logical system and troops dedicated to it helps the US with having the advantage, on some level there is also respect for "You are doing it so I don't need to" which deserves some amount of respect from janitor to the front lines and beyond.
Should the janitor be given the same level of respect as Audie Murphy or Alvin York , no, but at least to me I really don't know how to show difference between the levels.

Bit of a power level here but it's relevant to the conversation here, so here goes...

My uncle was in the Army and served in Afghanistan back in the early 2000's and was stationed in Bagram Air Base and was part of a construction unit.

He'll even tell you the majority of his experience in Afghanistan was just pouring concrete and building or repairing structures around the base and he finds a lot of the ass-kissing vets get to be kind of patronizing at this point and he honestly finds it hilarious how so many people think that the support guys are like Big Boss or Alvin York when the majority of military personnel are doing the important busywork and support work to keep everything running.

As pretty much everyone else here has pointed out, one of the reasons why our military is such an effective fighting force is because the majority of the personnel are part of support or service support units as opposed to direct combat troops.

Getting back to the main topic of the thread, the one thing I've always found confusing is how so many SWAT units and riot police from the 2010's onward tend to wear more military-style uniforms and gear with the camo color patterns.

Usually, back in the 80's. 90's, and even in the early 2000's most tactical police units had their uniforms be some kind of black or dark blue to distinguish them from National Guard soldiers but now the SWAT guys and Feds tend to rock the drab colors of the military. Is there a specific reason for this shift?

What do you need the white Republicans' help for? The white Democrats are doing that job perfectly fine as it is. I know that you guys love to outsource your jobs to other places but seriously, the whites you have are burning down black communities just fine on their own.

White Republicans rising up? That's like awakening a sleeping giant.

Michigan, USA

Only semi-related, but there is some overlap between the groups protesting this and the local Floyd protestors.
Protests over the re-opening of Detroit Public Schools for summer school are continuing, alongside a lawsuit that has been filed.

Last week, protests took place for three days with no arrests. That was until Thursday [July 16], when the protests began taking place at a private business — ABC Transportation — and not the school district garages.
...
Last week, 11 people were arrested and charged with disorderly conduct.

About 25 people showed up to protest Monday, July 20. Three were arrested and one car was towed.

Another minor local official resigns. This time it's Owosso Public Schools Board of Education president Tim Jenc, who "shared a post that had been written by someone else. The writer of the post says they are upset because people who are white can’t have “white pride” without being considered racist, while people in minority groups expressing pride are not called racists. It continues to claim minority groups are violent and white people should have white pride."

Outcry over racially insensitive Facebook post leads to Owosso school board president resignation

The Owosso Public Schools Board of Education president announced his resignation Wednesday, July 15, days after outcry over a Facebook post he shared that residents found racially insensitive.

Apparently Twitter deleted this video that Trump RETWEETED lol. He never even made this video and Linkin Park sends a cease and desist letter to him.

This is a fan made video, this video is proof of the enthusiasm for Trump. Has anyone made anything like this for Biden.

Here is a youtube video from a Linkin Park fan stanning the decision. He made the mistake of putting the twitter feed up and it is filled with pizzagate and comet ping pong conspiracy stuff. Someone actually tweets adrenochrome.

GWOT and the military-industrial complex has made an entire lifestyle brand around TactiTard culture. It's why you also have camo sportsball hats, 5.11 "tactical' clothing, and Black Rifle Coffee. All of which I have purchased and enjoy. 5.11 pants are comfy (and expensive) af.

Same reason why police are associated with the color with blue in the US. Military Surplus that the DOD sells to law enforcement on the cheap.

After the Civil War the US had lots of blue uniforms and started selling them to the police departments that were around.

No, fingerpaints.


Edited to say:Not USA related but a sign of the BLM batshittery getting worse. The black Mayor of Bristol, Marvin Rees has come under fire from Britain First (a "far right" group in the UK) for taking down the statue of merchant, philanthropist and slave owner, Edward Colston. Which makes sense as in, that's what that sort of group does. But he's also been getting flack from BLM/ANTIFA members for removing the statue of Jen Reid.

Bristol's mayor reveals he has been abused by BLM and Britain First

Bristol mayor Marvin Rees, 48, ordered the removal of a statue of Jen Reid, a Black Lives Matter protester, just 24 hours after it was erected.

So he, a black man who has been voted into a pretty decent position of power and has made a good career for himself is getting racist abuse from the anti-racists?

BLM and ANTIFA can go suck on a whole buffet of fucking dicks. BLM and ANTIFA are racist in the truest sense of the word.



Edit 2: Rees makes a point in the article:

"Mr Rees supports Black Lives Matter but said he wants to be remembered for other issues - the affordable houses he built and the steps he took to ending period poverty or introducing the national living wage.

'I didn't take down the statue of a black woman. I took down the intervention of a white, London-based artist'".


What a man. Seriously.

I actually liked the veggie burger MRE. Better than the cheese omelet, fuck that, no amount of Tabasco could salvage that shitshow. I'd rather deal with mortar fire.

Even the CG gets infantry training for those drug interdictions, the Chairforce has a infantry MOS for defending airfields full of expensive planes. Jarheads are naval infantry. The US military is a one big fighting force with a huge logistics component. The Antifags are toast the moment the US loses patience and decides to neutralize them.

Beef stew MRE is my favorite, in fact it was everyone's favorite.

Welp, all the media is now crowing with their latest martyr totem.

You can see the absolutely VICIOUS beating he got (it wasn't). Dude would not disperse so they basically made him.

I was going to say that now they don't think the military is a bunch of baby killers, but it's not worth even entertaining that. What they're doing is a textbook Rules for Radicals play: make your enemies live up to their principles, but break theirs and your own when convenient.

At least its not the four/five fingers of death.

That is just cheating though, I am pretty sure the stew and chili are just commercial canned products in a retort pouch.
(that being said, fuck the Tuna MRE, and its bullshit "mayo")

I liked the Brisket Entrée but it seems that got canned after 2018. Beef Goulash is good. The new Pizza MRE is a favorite among MRE "fans" but honestly its the shitty primary school pizza from the 90s only worst.
