Quoting: Strate8 Aside from that, since when do Marines stand at parade rest with hands in front and not crossed behind their backs? I don't know much about presidential guard duty but never in my days did we ever have a parade rest position with hands in front and I was on funeral detail for 6 months. Anyway, Your thoughts on being part of the symbolism being used as a semi-veiled threat to half the country? We've been tools of many a corrupt and sleazy political goal, but is this finally going to be a bridge too far? When a Soldier stands at Parade Rest with Bayonets fixed, the hands are in front. I had the same thought as you, but of course the Marines aren't to be trusted with Rifles in the presence of Resident Biden. Remember when Odumbass visited the troops in a war zone and all the troops had to check their weapons outside. That says it all with these clowns and their fake “respect “ for the troops. The chicken shits don’t even trust them in a war zone. Biden and his lot are all out of their fucking minds as it was on full display last night. It looked like Hitler giving a speech. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 84117229 Did you see this American military news article on the subject? [link to americanmilitarynews.com (secure)] Just read it. It doesn't add much to the subject. I will say this though. My drill instructor walked us through the command structure of the military. It was supposedly designed I'm such a way that one extremist faction of the government could not control it all. This is why, back in the day, I made such a big deal about wrongfully using national guard troops in Iraq. And... It was a national guard unit back from Iraq that went into new Orleans with guns at the ready after hurricane Katrina. I thought it defiantly implied abuse of military threat against MAGA. |

Just like his f15 comments. That's all it was. He even backtracked on it today because he got his point across. That was a "dont fuck with me" speech from an idiot.

We've been tools of many a corrupt and sleazy political goal, but is this finally going to be a bridge too far? You know you're more powerful than the people who put themselves in a position of power. WHY? Because they need a security detail to protect them. WHY? Because they are afraid of you. WHY? Because they know they don't really have power at all, that all they have is control of radio waves, media, the police and the army. But they don't control individuals. They control the general narrative. They are scared shitless of individuals. The lone rangers. The people who know what they fuck they're doing. It's funny really. To see these clowns barking on stage, they almost seem to believe themselves. I wonder if they hold secret politician oscar awards. I mean there's a reason actors look up to politicians, like Stiller sucking up to Zelensky. Politicians ARE actors they're in fact the best actors. Just start ignoring them. Don't listen to their speeches, don't vote, just boycott everything they stand for. Boycott professional sports, their flag, their fastfood, their dangling carrot in front of the donkey, their lottery tickets, their fireworks, ignore it all. Let their super yachts in Fort Lauderdale and their ofshore accounts turn to dust. When we turn away from them and pack our bags like the Israelites did in Egypt, the Pharaoh will get angry and show his real face. He'll send his police and army, threatened forced labor, even send us to the camps. But in the end we'll be free and the lazy corrupt who rule us will lose whatever power they though they had. |

And let me be clear. I am not saying people should be violent. What I'm saying is that powerful people are afraid of violence, because they are violent themselves. Just like a thief suspects everyone of wanting to steal from him, politicians are afraid of individuals. As an individual however, my weapon is to ignore. Ignoring someone inflicts the most most pain, because you strip away the attention that person craves. To win this fight against corruption, we cannot use violence, because they out gun us. To win, we must ignore them. Ignore the people you don't like. Don't give them power by talking about them, simple ignore them. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 80264108 That's why I wasn't a Marine. I'm addicted to critical thinking. Those poor saps didn't ask for a copy of the speech, or ask about the moral implications of standing behind someone while in uniform who is giving a political speech. To be fair, it's not their job to consider political implications of standing their post. It is to stand their post. Their superiors should have changed protocols to remove them from the backdrop. I agree to that. All enemies, foreign and domestic. |

You can wear just the ribbons in lieu of medals, but they are a part of your uniform. If you so desire, you can forego wearing you individually awarded medals or ribbons. So a general with a smooth chest is weird, to me. But I got out a long time ago. Maybe that has changed. I hadn't heard of that tradition you spoke of, but it makes sense.

Hillary was too short next to Bill and Bill had on pants with the hem dragging almost to the ground, it was all gathered around the shoe, this would not be Bill Clinton. Hillary's double isn't hard to spot because she is shorter but looks the most like Hillary. These are their old lookalike from years ago. I didn't pay too much attention to the rest, except where the timing was all wrong. Everything was off during this time. I know it wasn't Biden either.
