    After hearing about the arrests, neighbors decided to fly pride flags of their own.

    This is what resistance looks like. Resist bigots and authoritarians.

      With the war over, Steuben resigned from service and first settled with his longtime companion, William North, for whom he created a special room at his retreat he called the Louvre

      Nah, that just says they were roommates.

    Fuck these cowards, I look forward to their sentencing and less-than-honorable-discharges.

      Some military charges like conduct unbecoming would be nice, too. The military courts don’t fuck around.

        When in doubt, there’s always UCMJ Article 134. It’s a catch-all for things not specifically defined and could probably be added in with the theft charges or whatever they end up doing.

              ?? you need to be more verbose with your queries - what part is confusing, the word separation or the part where someone’s kicked out of gov’t service?

              Convenience of Government (COG)

              A reason for separation from Active Duty which allows discharge before completion of the obligated period of service and is a factor in determining eligibility under Chapters 30 and 32. Service members must have served a minimum of 20 months of a two-year enlistment or 30 months of a three-year enlistment in order to retain eligibility when released for COG.

            Figure that one’s a given. Wasn’t sure if they’d slap on something additional for crimes of bias or otherwise pile on charges as an example to others.

      You can get court-martialed for infidelity. I’d be shocked if they go free; theft of property, criminal trespass, conduct unbecoming, etc

    SHOOT them for trespass. They’d shoot YOU if you walked into their yard and stole their Trump flag.

    Sounds like a couple guys who need to spend some time getting strong by making big rocks into smaller rocks.

    Damn, I remember the reddit thread where everyone was like “that dude definitely looks like he’s from Fort Myer.”

    Dude gave up one of the cushiest assignments in the military because he’s afraid of rainbows.
