    Silence is not an option.

    Though my following is small, I have to say something or my soul will lose another piece to the darkness I fight against every day.
    Police and National guard attacked an Aid Station in Minneapolis. The Red cross is a protected symbol in an area of conflict. I'm sickened by the dishonorable act of those who I call brothers in arms.

Silence is not an option. · 1:47pm Jun 6th, 2020

Black Lives matter has shown a spotlight onto an America that doesn't care about the people I took an oath to protect.
Rules of engagement.
You do not fire upon,
Personnel wearing the Red cross, facilities bearing the Red cross.
Wounded people in their care.
Civilians, women and children. Anywhere!
Black lives matter, or no lives matter, and if we can't follow the rule of law then everything we have fought for past and present is for nothing.

I heard about this and couldn't hardly believe it happened, until I saw the video.

The person or persons who ordered this should be tried and prosecuted, along with those who participated. This is just as deplorable as any of the other brutal acts that have been committed.

This is not the way any person should be treated. These are not the rules of law that we should adhere to. This is not the people we should or can be. This is the kind of brutality we should all be condemning.

Black lives matter.

:heart: Thank you for this! :heart:

There are good guys and bad guys on both sides of this conflict. I'm on the side of the good guys, and I'm glad to know you are too!

Well spoken, jarhead!

I just read about this atrocity. Fuck the Police and National guard in Minneapolis.

You're a retired vet? You have my respect, sir. Unfortunately, I'm autistic, which means I can't join the military even though I always wanted to. Thank you for your service.
