The topic was why it took the shitlibs and Hasanabi-watching leftists (lol) a fucking tattoo to denounce Graham Platner, an Iraq veteran who did 4 trips to the war zone and then joined the Blackwater mercenary company to kill even more people.

    Here’s the thing. That tweet, in a vacuum is correct. But, what is missing, is context. What behavior is being excused by this logic?

    Yes there’s a poverty draft, yes people can realize and regret what they did. That doesn’t release them from the consequences of their actions, it does not give absolution, and it does not mean we have to accept them.

          Herman Blume: You guys have it real easy. I never had it like this where I grew up. But I send my kids here because the fact is you go to one of the best schools in the country: Rushmore. Now, for some of you it doesn’t matter. You were born rich and you’re going to stay rich. But here’s my advice to the rest of you: Take dead aim on the rich boys. Get them in the crosshairs and take them down. Just remember, they can buy anything but they can’t buy backbone. Don’t let them forget it. Thank you.
