[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]This narrative about "far left" people not supporting our military is ridiculous. "Far left" people support our military just as much as anyone else in our country. You're here lecturing about not painting keepers with a broad brush and calling them racist, but are perfectly ok with calling "far left" people anti military. What happened to your lecture about not labeling people?

Oh, please.  Some of those people were likely out protesting against soldiers and calling them "baby killers" back in the day.[/quote]

Ok, so people shouldn't label "keepers" racist, but you should label "far left" people anti military.  You have no credibility.  I'm as liberal as they get and this was my response a few pages back to a negative comment about naming the school after Mendez:

"Mr. Mendez's accomplishments were significant in and of themselves, some would say more so than Soto-Mayor's given his willingness to literally put his life on the line fighting for freedom for his fellow human beings. Sorry his military service isn't fancy enough for you."

I viewed his military service as a plus.  This is not a left/right issue.  I doubt anyone who opposed Mendez did so based on his military service.  But I'm sure you'll keep beating that drum.
