    Yes, fucking gleefully.

    Do yourself a favor and Google “Graham Platner quotes about killing”

    Jesus Christ how low is the bar? Yes I’m going to hold his words and actions against him, he’s running for public office and those words and actions are fucking horrifying.

      I gave you the bare minimum of doing the google (which I shouldn’t be doing in the first place because it’s on you to prove your statements) and found literally nothing, so unless you can cite your source I’m going to stand by what I said.

        I’d like to ask you what kind of person voluntarily serves four tours in Iraq (including guard duty at Abu Ghraib prison), only then to get a job at Blackwater to continue the same kind of work? What kind of person does that? Even without the Nazi tattoo, that would have been more than enough to raise red flags. Shit man, just working at Blackwater is a problem for me.

        Anyway, there’s a full archive of his reddit posts and comments, which is why I said to Google it yourself.

        I will concede that maybe “gleefully” is a little hyperbolic, and “without empathy or remorse” is probably more accurate.

          I’m not going to continue talking in circles. I’ve addressed what you said in two ways. First I asked

          And perhaps more importantly, has his military career made him more pro American foreign policy or more anti American foreign policy?

          Which you continued to ignore. And since you weren’t interested in having that conversation I responded with:

          Whatever, it’s not my job to change your opinion. If you want to hold every mistake he’s ever done over his head go ahead, just don’t fall off your high horse. And if it’s such a deal breaker continue voting for the politicians who have seen war only in movies and have no guilt over sending youth into a meat grinder.

          There’s no discussion to have here. You’re hellbent on hating the guy so the only way for me to treat you is the same way you treat him, which means I don’t give a shit that you’re now conceding that “gleeful” was hyperbolic, you already made your mistake so you’re forever disingenuous.

              No, but if you want a “fuck you” you can get one for being fucking disingenuous. Forever and ever baby, nothing is going to take that away from you.
