Here is one for you all.

Instead of KIA.. If this kid had his leg or some other bad injury and he came back to the USA. Guess who gets to pay for his therapy.

Eff that, if your a US vet and you go over and fight as a merc and you get wounded, you should forefit ALL of your VA benefits.

Is he? I saw lipstick too.

And eyeglasses so thick they look like coke bottles.

And a general physique that does not look military grade strong..

He was a traitor, and fought with a neo-nazi dictatorship.

“Yes, and he appears to be wearing red lipstick.”

Likely explains his support for Ukraine.

According to Colonel MacGregor (retired), active military are allowed to ‘resign’ to go fight in the Ukraine, and then ‘unresign’ when they return home. During that time they’re in the Ukraine they are either deemed ‘Volunteers’ or ‘Contractors’.

“George Orwell fought in the Spanish civil war and got shot in the neck. He dies. and we don’t get 1984.”

Unfortunately 1984 become and INSTRUCTION MANUAL for China and the West, particularly the Globalists. We may have been better off without it.d

Technically, George is dead and we're getting 1984 anyway, only it's apparently going to be the cross-dressing version.

Dying for Ukraine is a no good waste of one’s life. That said, he at least suits up and shows up, unlike our sh*t posting propagandists here.

IMO, there are no good guys on either side of this thing, whether one's talking about Zelensky or Putin. Both are corrupt AF. Siding with either one of them is siding with evil. Choosing the lesser of two evils is still choosing evil.

I wish this young man would've had the discernment at his age to know this simple truth. What a tragic loss of his life.

Its winter, there is snow on the ground, his skin is red everywhere, from the cold including his neck. As to his "general physique" he served a tour of Afghanistan in 2014

Hopefully he got to bang some hot Ukrainian chicks before he caught a Russian bullet.

Really, the only plus side with fighting in Ukraine. There's some smokin' hot women over there, and they're all hoping to land an American husband.

Ukraine: The "bride basket" of Europe.

Its easier to go to Russia, there is no conflict there and most of the men are gone, either in the army or fled to neighboring countries.

He was an American patriot who served voluntarily in the United States Army, and then fought against a communist dictatorship who invaded another country.

Peters’ father said his son was proficient in several languages, including Ukrainian, Russian and French.

Sounds like this soldier may have had family ties to Ukraine.

No. He wasn’t. He died a deep state shill fighting for everything that this forum stands against. May he rot in hell.

That is not a very Christian attitude. And you do not speak for what "this forum stands for." This forum's members are as divided as the country at large.
