.@Todd_Mokhtari I have an issue with that segment that ran on the late news last night about local military families worries after the killing of #QasemSoleimaini. #KNSD had a young mother with her infant strapped on her front in Liberty Station inventing opposition.
She alleged that people were hostile to troops since #POTUS45 carried out the "sanction" of #Soleimani. That was wrong.
Some people are smart enough to read the U.S. Constitution and enlisted personnel oath of induction then put those together to understand that #troops don't make their own orders.
I would like to think better of that woman, her husband and his comrades, any veteran or any person than to defend #POTUS45's reckless orders. If not out of respect for people whether they are in uniform or not then as a waste of the U.S' assets.
Could @DanicaTVNews and her crew find someone who would blame troops for the orders that they are about to get to ship out instead of someone in the @WhiteHouse? Of course, there are all kinds of idiots who will say anything on TV. I understand that it is still #content.
As a native San Diegan who as a child rode by the MCRD in a car knowing that young men in there that day would be sent off to Vietnam another day, I'm haunted by the notion that it happened. That didn't change with George The 41st & 43rd's adventures around the Persian Gulf.
I'm disappointed to think that that young mother - notwithstanding her political inclinations - would believe that opponents to war would oppose her as a person instead of opposing war so her family's lives can be full and fruitful.
