Why does this guy look and sound like such a faggot?

AWARDS AND HONORS Best Lawyers Under 40, National LGBT Bar Association, 2014

oh, because he is.

Also: he was never in the air force. He is a political appointee. He graduated law school in 2005, worked in private practice for 3 years, then became an Obama appointee in 2009, swapped out to think tanks during the Trump admin, then right back in.

Frankly, I'm all for it. Make the military weak. It just makes things easier when they inevitably start kicking doors and pointing guns to enslave you.

B-b-but m-muh o-o-oath, foreign and d-d-d-domestic!

Fuck you, and fuck the noises out of your face hole that you call an "oath." The US Military has a proud history of shooting veterans dating as far back as Washington himself. Don't think it'll be any different this time.

This. The worthwhile people left the military a good while ago.

Recruitment is so bad they’ve got Kang trying to get people to join the Army.

Know why they don’t use ankle socks with combat boots? Because your ankles will look more like chewed leather than the boots after being broken in. I used to have to double up tube socks when breaking in a new pair and still have scars on the back of my ankles.

Probably the PT uniform, although why anyone would buy issue socks after boot camp is a mystery.

Dress uniforms have a different pair of socks that aren’t nearly as tall as tube socks, nor is there a reason to waste time on making standard issue “ankle dress socks” when someone could just buy their own

Why are there women in the military? Problem solved, effectiveness improved.

Because the guards will take the head of anyone who says the emperor has no clothes.

male boss

I mean, technically.

At least he didn't say "boss who is a man," or he'd be held in contempt for such a blatant lie.

Goes with people who rain death on unsuspecting people from the air, while not being at risk themselves.

Would it be controversial if I said America needs to lose a war? Not a war vs guerillas battle by attrition type thing, but a straight up conventional war against another country. My cracked out thought is the American Empire wouldn't be so decadent and vain if they realised they aren't the military hegemon.

Maybe, but I don't think I actually want all the fallout and shift in international power that such a loss would entail.

I got out of the Air Force in 04. Thankfully I didn’t have to deal with this nonsense

Women who aren’t actually forced to break them in…

This is the air force & appointees, I doubt it was force-wide and probably was just for some office or base this guy is at, which is filled with civilian appointees & overwhelmingly women & LGBTs and other box checkers like him, who probably spend half the day playing tennis and the other half having "meetings" about DEI shit.

So they don't wear boots.
