" Lol I gave 7 years of my life to support this nation, took a bullet for it, and I got up and did it some more. ">You feel free to donate as much as you want to the IRS for your desires. There's a line right there on the forms for you to put your money where your mouth is. For the rest of us, it's getting near time for another tea party at the harbor.
I dont need to donate to the IRS, that is just to pay off the deficit and what we owe the federal reserve. I give the most valuable thing I can, my time.
I help local charities, make sure my neighbors can improve their homes with what I have to offer, and even help with groceries if possible.
>No one's saying to refuse immigrants. We're saying no to an invasion of unlawful immigrants, human trafficking, extortion, rape trees, people in cages, illegal narcotics, poison, violent criminals and outright savages invading our country. You're sitting here passing judgment on our fellow OSA'ers, while supporting everything I just typed. Don't lie and say you aren't because you are. You're literally defending the illegal invasion of our country, cause feelings.
I am passing judgment upon those I am engaging with since you are who I am talking to when I reply, this is why I quote. As for an invasion....lol.
When was the last time you saw what you assume as an illegal living a life you would want? I never have and I lived around them for years. 8 people in a one bedroom apartment where the men worked day labor and women tended to the home and kids, every single day!
Far as the drugs, trafficking, and blah blah, blame your government as they allow that to continue. Their interests lie within the drug trade to flourish. Even the human trafficking.
>Our borders and national sovereignty must be protected from human predation. It's literally the most important charter of the federal government in our Constitution (See Article I, Section 8). Do you hate our Constitution also?
Are you serious right now? Lol I gave 7 years of my life to support this nation, took a bullet for it, and I got up and did it some more. I don't support the distain for others as they assume they are losing something, because you ain't.
>So stop with the leftist talking points and dishonest debate tactics. It's not going to work here like it did wherever you came from.
Here in lies the issue with you and I, you have labeled me as a leftist and will keep dismissing anything I say, because you want that division. I don't really, I want compromise and community more than anything.
Far as that immigration thing, go try it....I have with many people and it isn't clear by the way. It is different each time and very very bias.
>Why are you even here? In Oklahoma? It's obvious you don't think much of us. Are you an economic refugee from the very policies you support and defend, such as illegal immigration? If NYC is so amazing, why aren't you there? Can't afford it? I don't know what craphole you crawled out of to get here (California?), but you're out of step and out of line. It's bigoted people like you who give those other states and areas of the country a bad name.
Because I was born here, and I am American Indian by heritage, this is where I belong, do you want to tell an Indian to vacate your land just as many before you did that had the same outlook?
That sure sounds like something bad to me? As such I won't run away to somewhere else as others have before me. I will say something and I will be respectful in doing so to the best of my ability. I won't say....you should go somewhere else because this is not gonna fly here.
>It's bigoted people like you who give those other states and areas of the country a bad name.
I wasn't the one that demanded origan and conformity like you did with how it is here....just having a discussion and not demanding others move or relocate.
>Most of us on here do vote and we are working to defend our state and our nation from predation. We have to fight people like you daily for the right to do so. Many of us have served our nation and sworn Oaths, unlike you apparently. The world has changed and it's getting worse, not better.
Don't go there....you are making assumptions based on your prejudice and that is racist, which I don't belive you are. I belive you are angry and want to belittle the first person you are able to when they engage as I have, and as part of the community I like to see how others are, and discuss how I am.. because that is how we resolve issues. MS2 SS USS MICHIGAN BLUE CREW that is a submarine that I served most of naval career on and what rank I was when discharged.
>You're free to stay, but your terrible attitude isn't welcome and you're not going to change our state to your liking. You will always be an outsider, so long as your wrong-headed, holier-than-thou attitude prevails.
I will stay, because I like the engagement and discussion we all have here, loved the get that guy a mower thread, I read each post and I loved how everyone here came together. You dont see that often these days and I love this place for that.
>You're free to move there if it suits you, we won't tolerate it around here, got it?
News flash, that is happening all over Tulsa and okc if you didn't know, there are well over 300 across from the MWC animal control in the woods because no one cares.
>Again, go back there if you like it so much. We're working to contain and minimize that type of environment in our midst. We have a right to say and do whatever it takes to maintain the standards of our communities. Your liberal attitude is what's driving this country more towards flavellas and organized crime. We don't want that attitude here. It's counterproductive and harmful. You're free to pretend your way is better, but you're not better. Not even remotely.
I ain't huh? Weird how my ways have gotten at least 2 random people a day to knock on my door and say thank you for making our day somewhat happier. Or how the city gave us an award for community involvement.
I mean America is all about democracy right? 52 random people nominated the wife and I to recive a community award, and well over 1000 people actively encourage us to keep doing it.
That many people here say I shouldnt?
So, in your musings you mentioned that you spent 7-years in the Navy mostly on a submarine, got shot, guarded an opium field from being destroyed by the Taliban, and personally witnessed an Israeli soldier toss a 'Willie Peter' grenade into a medical tent full of kids. I could be wrong but I don't recall very many United States Navy submariners spending time guarding fields of poppies OR hanging around the Israeli military in a war zone, though being shot during a training exercise occasionally, though rarely, does happen.
Though the USS Michigan (SLBM), later to become an SSGN, visited many ports during her career such as South Korea, Japan, Guam, Australia, and Hawaii, she never once docked in Israel or Afghanistan
