Thoughtful post Clipper.
Not here to change anyone's political opinions. Just questioning the "logic and seriousness" of them.
BTW: I wasn't a driver. I was an HH1 and UH-IN Crew Chief/Gunner/SAR TECH. 3245 hours worth. 678 of which are Combat Flt Hours. Did have to drive some, over 230 hours as part of our duties during a Functional Check Flight Crewman.
Chief, just because you have learned to search on the internet, don't think that substitutes for actual thought...
... your canned talking point raving seems to dislodge whatever actual fresh thinking you might actually contribute to this discussion...
... and I have no doubt that what you want to say is far better than the talking points and searched news searches that you are defaulting to...
Of course they don't. They do not flow nor align with those that yourself and most here roll with.
Imagine that. Someone that doesn't parrot the same shet you all subscribe to. Badman.

Chief, I would like to add that Carson's medical experience has absolutely zero relevance in the realm of public policy, politics, and damn near anything outside of the OR.

NO it doesn't.
What he did to get to that point and maintain it, does.
He is one of the supposed 99.9% of the minorities (Black Young Men) that many here, including yourself Eastman, state haven't a chance in hell in making it in this white man's oppressive capitalistic society, that did so. And did so in a manner of which many White, Black, Green etc never have done so and achieved what he has, in the entire history of medicine and science.
Now that is what qualifies him to be the POTUS.

Chief, I have never said any thing about 99% of anybody not making it, anywhere...
... you should consider not making assumptions and broad generalizations...
... it makes you appear like an idiot.

Please do post Eastman where my last post indicated such a thing. Please.
Now what was that about.... making assumptions and broad generalizations, Eastman.
You assumed that because of his long tenure and experience in the OR, I consider him fit to be the POTUS.
I retorted with agreement to that then included this specific reason for my considering Dr. Carson fit to be the leader of the Free World...

Nothing in there states anything about YOU Eastman and not making it. Nothing.

Not at all. I was simply clarifying who Dr. Ben Carson is and his background using your past post history in other threads regarding today's oppressed Young Black Men.
Nothing more. Nothing about Dr. Carson "not making it"
Reading into and twisting posts around again Eastman... appears so, noodles.
EDIT:
Are you now going to state that you EASTMAN never made any mention or agreed with any comment that young black men in today's society are "oppressed" and have a difficult time "making it" in the White Capitalistic dominated society we live in?

No at all.
Just tired of the insane dumbass rhetoric you and others keep posting up regarding opinions that differ than yours.
And in most cases, ie you included, resort to belittling and attempting to shame anyone that does so in order to prove your position as the only viable one on the books that makes perfect sense, logic and all the other happy horseshet that goes with all the politard crap you partake in here.
Shall I post them "noodles" up, Eastman?

BP106/60 HR46.... thanks.
Interesting observation Eastman, not one actual climbing photo or TR from you. Not a single one. Just insistent partaking mostly in politard threads.

So why shouldn't or why wouldn't Dr. Ben Carson be a good POTUS, Eastman?
Because he is a.... Republican with pretty much the same identical across the board moral values that MLKjr and Abraham Lincoln had?
You of course do know that both MLKjr and Abraham Lincoln were staunch believer's and God Fearing men that prayed daily, sometimes hourly to the same God so many here disdain so much.
Do you hold that fact against Dr. Ben Carson, Eastman?
EDIT: Supposedly Barrack Obama is a God Fearing Man as well and he too prays regularly.
Even when shet hits the fan he seeks guidance from a Power Greater than himself....
Even when giving Honor to those that served above and beyond the call of duty...
I don't expect a decent answer from you Eastman, nor from any of your comrades.

Dr. Carson has spent his career at JHU working in a field that honors his skill set in the OR and he has successfully navigated the corridors of power within the academic/research realm of his profession. That in no way, regardless of what issues he may bring up, qualifies him for public office at any level, much less the presidency.
In Dr. Carson's world the pace is fast with results returned quickly with little negotiation. Politics is about compromise and slow-steady incremental gains and policy developments.
Without the doctor actually having proven himself in the political realm, he is no more qualified to be President than Harry Reid is qualified to do surgery.
Politics is complicated and requires good skills at the higher levels.

And what "experiential" political and mediating skillsets did Obama have prior to becoming the POTUS other than the six or so years as an IL State Senator and a little over 3 years in the US Senate all of which he spent most of his tenure in both practicing his background in law etc.?
WTF does praying have to do with squat?
Nothing if of course you agree it is a viable manner to seek guidance from outside oneself when in a position of authority & leadership such as MLKjr and A. Lincoln (and many others including FDR & JFK etc.) were in.
EDIT: Just throwing that out onto the table as I know how "Prayer" irks the living shet out of Craig Fry, BOBda and the rest of the hardcores here that preach how stupid Repubs and their religious fantasies and practices are.

How does a cop identify anyone as being a Vet prior to or after initiating any contact with or action towards? In any of your interactions with a LEO, have you ever been asked for you Lic, Reg, Proof of Ins and your VET/VA ID?
This 'unidentifiable' Vet sure deserved it huh Chief?

Impressed with your ability to live in a fantasy world where cops and vets are always good guys and the bad guys always deserve to be beat up.

Thanks for putting words in my post, Compton. That is NOT what my point was in my retort and you know it.
That particular incident where an active duty soldier gets his ass kicked you show in the vid happened in 2007. Fked up, oh yeah. Got my ass kicked and hauled off three times by local SD and VA BCH PD for being disrespectful towards them. Which I assure you this Sgt was when he initiated the contact. He even admits to being so when he went back and questioned the TSA Sup etc regarding the incident with the verbiage /tone he used due to obviously being pissed for missing his flight. Is it excusable what resulted in the actions of the LV MET PD.. absolutely NOT! But that was not the manner nor the proper protocol in which to have handled such a situation for any ACTIVE NATL GUARD or ACTIVE DUTY SERVICE MEMBER. Being a senior individual in the Guard, he knew that and he knows he should have never addressed the fked up TSA situ in that manner.
As a Div & Dept Leading Chief, I have had to escort many a young and older Sailor to local court for doing just this. Each time, we got the charges dropped by having the Sailor admit to the judge he fked up and his actions at the time were inappropriate. I also know many an Active Duty Shipmate that got their asses kicked by the local CONUS PD's and thrown in the slammer. Many occurred during Storm upon return from deployment. Most of the times charges were dropped. But most if not all were initiated by their attitude and behavior towards them PD's.
Golden rule we are ALL directed to follow when any contact is ever made with local PD's from the first days in Boot Camp...
When approached by any local PD for any issue, regardless if it's your doing or not, ALWAYS be courteous and respectful. NEVER behave in any manner that may bring discredit to the uniform nor the Navy, Army, USAF or Marine Corps. Never give the local LEO's any motive to beat your ass. Because if you do, you will most certainly get your ass kicked and thrown in jail. And then you will face the consequences of your ill behavior/actions when you return to the command.

Now, back to my post regarding "Homeless Vets" and the manner in which the PD is to identify anyone as such. Any comment on that?
