Yes, if my commanding officer told me to go stomp on a baby I'd have some reservations.

But this guy deciding that he will go against regulations regarding political activism despite warning not to, totally different ball game.

That wouldn't be a lawful order and that hypothetical commanding officer would never have issued that order to begin with.

He knew the rules and he broke them. He was even given a warning and chose to ignore it. If I talked about my boss that way on Facebook I would fully expect to be fired. Anyone who assumes Facebook to be "private" is a fool. This fool deserves what he gets.

Record cases of this type of thing seem to be happening on a regular basis with this administration. I can't recall hearing it before, at least not at this level. Something is wrong, a blind man could see it.

It's clear this administration is the problem. There is no need to elborate further on the issue. I've never seen any such administration so hated. It's best to keep it to yourself. No one would believe you anyway. "Link please!?" "Link please!?"

so, bottom line is you can't support your claim of "Record cases of this type of thing seem to be happening on a regular basis...:".

LOL This.


The poster threw something out there and has no proof whatsoever to back it up, so now it's "best to keep it to yourself" and "no one would believe you anyway."

Funny.
