    how do you expect anyone to take you seriously when all you do is talk shit?

    What have you done otherwise? You shit on my service because I was never deployed, even though I still signed up and served my country just as you claim to have done.

    What have I ignored? Have I once denied any of the bullshit going on? I also love my country and served. I also know I’m not Rambo and I know what it’s like to be fired at.

    So why do you hold that as some sort of badge of honour? If you know what it is like to be fired at in a theatre of war, and took an oath to defend America both domestically and Internationally, why are you so afraid of defending your fellow unarmed and scared citizens from an authoritarian regime that is killing them in your home nation? You are fine going abroad to defend others, but not at home?

    Also, good for you for going to powwows? You think that makes you special? I’m from Oklahoma. My wife is native. Her dad is a chief. I work for a tribe. You’re not special.

    Imagine them reading your comments. I bet they would be ashamed of you. Your wife would be ashamed of you. The fact that ICE is murdering your fellow citizens in cold blood in the streets, and you’re arguing with a Canadian that we had residential schools until 1996? Knowing what I know about indigenous culture, they would be absolutely ashamed of everything you have written here today. They stood up for and died for what they believed in. And you’re too scared to face ICE in the streets. Your family stood up to white people like you and died for their culture, and you won’t even defend theirs.

    All I’m saying is to stop acting like it’s no big deal to start an armed revolution. Me shooting ICE agents would only serve to get me killed and wouldn’t do anything for anyone else.

    I’m not saying you as an individual needs to start an armed resolution. I’m saying you as Americans need to nut the fuck up. Renee Good was murdered by an ICE officer. There were 3 of them completely alone. There was 30+ civilians around the area when it happened. Fucking grab something and bludgeon the damn cops to death. ICE shows up to a home and 15 of them are there and there are 100 civilians outside chanting slogans? Rush and and beat them with whatever you have.

    Civilizations over centuries have risen up against authoritarianism. And American civilians are the most armed civilians in human history. Fucking do something. I’m not asking you as an individual to form a massive militia, but I am expecting you as someone who swore an oath to defend America from threats both domestic and abroad to uphold your oath.

    Do better. I look down on Americans regularly but you seem to be one of the good ones who pushes back and gives a shit. You boast on serving and being in firefights. Set an example for your country. I have never been in a theatre of war but I would kill every single American if they ever set foot invading Canada.

      Never once did I shit on your service. I said you didn’t understand what you were demanding, which is true.

      So why do you hold that as some sort of badge of honour?

      I don’t, I only mentioned it to point out that I know what it means, what it feels like.

      If you know what it is like to be fired at in a theatre of war, and took an oath to defend America both domestically and Internationally, why are you so afraid of defending your fellow unarmed and scared citizens from an authoritarian regime that is killing them in your home nation?

      Because I’m one person in a red state. I don’t know why that’s so hard for you to understand.

      Imagine them reading your comments. I bet they would be ashamed of you.

      Nonsense. They don’t expect me to do anything that they aren’t doing. Nobody should. That’s ridiculous.

      ICE shows up to a home and 15 of them are there and there are 100 civilians outside chanting slogans? Rush and and beat them with whatever you have.

      People have been clashing with ICE all year and even chasing them around in cars. You haven’t looked into it at all, have you?

      Fucking do something

      We have been, dumbass. Jesus Christ, you don’t know the first thing about it.

        Christ. You are beyond help. Good luck. And God help you because you sure as fuck won’t.

        Enjoy watching the decline of America from your couch.

            You’re beyond help because you swore an oath to your country to defend it against threats both domestic and abroad. While you’re perfectly okay killing brown people halfway across the globe you’re too scared to kill white people killing your fellow citizens domestically. All while claiming your family is indigenous while not defending people like them getting kidnapped by ICE in other states while also telling a Canadian we had residential schools until 1996 when you had them until 2007.

            I wonder how you’ll react when ICE comes after your aboriginal family. Are you going to sit back and let it happen because it’s not your place to intervene? Because they came for the Jews, but I wasn’t Jewish so I did nothing…

            Just keep placating authoritarianism. I’m so proud you served to defend your country just to bend over to the domestic authoritarianism you swore to combat.

              “blah blah blah blah I’m mad because you won’t suicide by cop”

              when you had them until 2007.

              That’s just not true unless you’re talking about tribal run schools

                Bro. I encourage you to read a book… If your county hasn’t shut down libraries since you’re in Oklahoma.

                Best of luck to you and your family.

                You’re gonna fucking need it.

                  Well since I’m just a dumb Okie maybe you could provide a source for your claim. Or are you afraid that I’m right?
