[quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous][quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous]I fail to understand why the smoking gun is ignored:  He said he only put “A little bit of shoe polish on his cheeks” because he knew “you cannot get shoe polish off.”[/quote]

I also thought of that, but then he was in the military and, therefore, had lots of experience with shoe polish from polishing shoes and boots. I assume that it is just as hard to get off of your hands as it is your face.[/quote]

Polished boots for years. You use thick cloth and don’t get a lot on your hands. You apply a thick coat, let it dry, and polish. Yes you get some on your hands but not that much. Also many people used a swab like container of liquid polish that is even cleaner and more easy to  apply.

Never in my life have I seen anyone in the Military walking around with hands stained with polish.

Anyone who would apply boot polish to their FACE is absolutely insane. It has a strong chemical smell and is probably extremely bad for your facial skin. It smells like oily chemicals.

I have no idea how anyone could defend this in thei slightest. [/quote]

Uh, explaining is not defending. You are saying that you don't know why anyone would put shoe polish on their face because of the inherent properties of shoe polish, right? Yet, I assume that you have never put shoe polish on your face. The poster above seems to believe that you could only know the problems of putting shoe polish on your face if you had previously put shoe polish on your face. You are an example of that not being true. You are providing an example of exactly what I was saying.
