But that was the basis for my original comment—that what Pitt4401 said was irrelevant as to whether the dude committed rape. I said nothing about the dude’s character...I was speaking to whether or not he raped someone. If the Air Force wanted to originally discharge the guy because they thought his character was not in line with being a good officer, then that’s the argument they should have made.

Again, how is this relevant to whether or not he raped someone? Unless you’re now saying that someone’s past behavior should be relevant when determining if that same person committed a crime or not? Funny...we have another thread in which people are suggesting that Floyd’s past crimes should be irrelevant to his interaction with the police on the day he died. And Floyd is now hailed a hero...

Kind of irrelevant as to if one committed rape or not, right?

CBus T-38 crash—2 fatalities. Damn—RIP. https://www.montgomeryadvertiser.com/story/news/2021/02/19/columbus-t-38-jet-crashes-montgomery-killing-two/4516708001/

For starters, get rid of victimless crime laws. I’m not saying that this does/does not have a specific racial element to it, but rather, why have any law enforcement action if there is no victim? Remember Eric Garner being originally confronted for selling loose cigarettes? Confrontation should have never occurred...

Are you asking me these questions or Homestar?

Well, not too long ago (see below) you were able to make a comment on the likelihood of race and physical encounter with me enforcement...and now you don’t seem to be able to do so when I ask you in my post above. 6 hours ago, Homestar said: Assuming he's white, he likely won't. In every one of these cases de-escalation techniques might have prevented the need for force altogether, which I think we all agree is the desired goal.

A simple question: Is a non-white American more likely to be engaged with physical force with law enforcement vs a non-white American who has not been engaged with physical force with law enforcement?

You made a comment that if someone is white, it’s not likely that they’ll be at the wrong side of a baton...so I would like to know what the likelihood is of someone who is non-white being at the wrong end of a baton? Are you suggesting that the majority of non-white Americans have been engaged with any sort of physical force from law enforcement?

So you’re able to comment on the likelihood of one race being on “the wrong side of a baton”, but not others? Why is that?

Since you seem to be smart on the subject, what percentage of non-white Americans find themselves on “the wrong side of a baton”?

If the federal government cannot get enough volunteers to sign up to engage in a war...then perhaps that war shouldn’t be fought. I’m against conscription as that doesn’t sound like a lot of personal freedom and liberty to me.

But you think they’re wrong, right? Since you said it’s not racist...

So then why did you originally say it’s “possibly racist” if you now don’t consider it racist?

So you consider something racist (or as you said, “possibly racist”), and yet you never stopped to check if what you were intentionally purchasing was furthering a racist message or not? In one post you say you care (ie “possibly racist”), and in another post you say you don’t care. So which is it?

I asked you a simple yes or no question...and yet you couldn’t even answer without getting emotional.

Just curious, have you ever purchased this syrup?

How much leave do you have to use by 30 Sep?

Pardon my ignorance, but how often does this happen? Someone mentioned “medical checkups”, so I’m assuming this is a reoccurring exam and not just an initial?

That’s it?

OSS Suppressors have a sweet mil discount.

Same, and yes I got paid this year. Late June I received a CMS case email that AFPC was directing DFAS to continue $25K annual payments until 2022 and a couple weeks later I was paid.

Never believe a progressive when they say "nobody wants to take away your guns". https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/joe-biden-pushes-for-federal-gun-buyback-program-assault-weapons-ban-in-wake-of-mass-shootings/2019/08/05/6261d998-b7e5-11e9-b3b4-2bb69e8c4e39_story.html?noredirect=on And yes, Trump is not pro-2A either...

You forgot to mention that the middle class will also pay more in taxes (even Bernie has said this will happen I feel he gets elected). Asfor doing less on the world stage, this is a positive IMO and one of the reasons as to why we're in this mess.

With fewer staff jobs being filled then they're going to go to those at the top. Are you saying that in the last 3 years not 1 B-1 WSO in the AF who was a senior Captain/junior Major got sent to a staff job without going to IDE first?
