Something I have been thinking about IRT Nathan Phillips.......
He has claimed to be a Vietnam Veteran. My dad was a veteran. He served two tours in Vietnam. Officer in the AF. Career service. When he talked about himself, he simply called himself a "veteran." He never referred to himself as a "Vietnam Veteran." This guy used the "Vietnam Veteran" descriptor to mislead people. And his military record is proof of that. |
Scary. The good news is some people broke free from the "reality is in the human mind and nowhere else...whatever the Party holds to be true is true. If this is so, then by controlling men's [people's] minds, The Party controls the truth." |
The Parkland kids should reach out to them to offer them support, since they know what it's like literally and figurative to be in crosshairs. |
the legal definition of Vietnam Veteran is anyone who served during the war, in any location. 38 USC 4211(2). |
We already went through his. There are public laws about it. He is a Vietnam Veteran. |
I don't care what the legal definition is. My point is that he used that "moniker" to intentionally deceive people into believing he actually served in Vietnam. Most veterans don't qualify their "veteran" status. He lied about a lot. Including what he did when in the service. Not to mention the series of events on Friday. |
Do you have actual footage of him saying he served a tour of duty in Vietnam? |
Concur. My dad also served during Vietnam (1970-73) but did not go to Vietnam. He has NEVER called himself a “Vietnam vet.” Actually, he doesn’t go throwing out his veteran status at all unless it’s actually relevant to the conversation. |
Irrelevant. The kids were still jerks. The chaperones were still negligent. And the BHIs were still crazy. |
Trump lies constantly about his tiny teeny hands. He still has tiny hands |
Was this guy in a marine uniform? I teach my kids to not be jerks to all adults. I don't ask their veteran status or get snobby about which war was going on when they were in the service. I expect my kid to be respectful to all adults. |
I like how you break this down in to an easy to understand sound bite for people who want to rug sweep everything and make you think that 100+ rowdy teenagers were intimidated by an elderly native american man. |
Yes. I wonder if all those adults and professionals calling for doxing these kids, threatening them with violence, doxing the wrong kid and telling his university to rescind his acceptance, and posting outright lies realize that the internet is forever. |

This thread is flacks shitposting to support Sandmann’s credulity-straining narrative.
It’s all gaslighting: we saw a spoiled-shit kid in over his head, acting like a smug jerk. Not a bit of that has changed, though desperately, people want us to believe this boy was praying as he was smirking. Who are we to believe? The flack here repeatedly misapplying “1984,” or our own lying eyes? |
YES X10000! |
