yeah her family is still defeated....hoping he violates and gets sent away for a long time, that’s actually what the prosecutor said is the best chance.

A lot more than they gave the asshole who killed this other girl in Dallas.....she was a relative of my  friend. I really hope he screws up and they send him to jail forever, but that won’t happen. I’m very happy another girl’s family didn’t have to watch her killer get probation, because that shit is unforgivably…

So from what I’ve read it seems like one path is that the FBI was listening to the Russian Ambassador and others (which I think is their default right for foreign leaders) and heard Mike Flynn talking to him/them. Flynn was also working out of Trump Tower sometimes as part of the campaign. It seems logical that they…

“Mr. President, this is truly the finest, longest-lasting, most perfect gum for chewing that we have to offer you from our country. The only difference from your American gum for chewing, Mr. President, is that you are supposed to be swallowing this one after the flavor has been gone.”

The literal last thing we wanted to do was go back over there and fight again.

Well I’m sure we can agree it was an incredibly complicated war with lots of different nuances - the Russians faced the bulk of Hitler’s soldiers and heavy weapons on the Eastern Front, destroyed them and liberated about half of Europe. But they likely would have lost without the $150 billion (modern value) in lend…

Yes, we absolutely sacrificed a lot of great men to win that war and our domestic infrastructure made the most of their sacrifices, earning the ally victory because in addition to the soldiers the American strategic planning and war materials really turned the tide. When you read Band of Brothers and what they went…

I agree, my mom’s side of the family lost entire branches of the family to the Nazi occupations in France, Austria and Russia....its just incredible to think of all the different family trees around the world that were decimated by the war. A third one is just unthinkable, yet also seems to creep closer every single…

We should have joined sooner, it was a tough sell to Congress and America until Pearl Harbor. FDR did what he could to support the British. People really didn’t want to go over there and fight again. Or confront the Japanese in the Pacific. The whole thing could have been avoided much earlier or alltogether in a…

This is really cool, where did you get this? I never meant to imply the Free French forces weren’t total bad-asses....that’s why I mentioned them.

Wow, that a pretty insulting response - obviously you have no respect for the sacrifice millions of people made to win that war and liberate other nations they had no connection to, just for duty and justice, so I think we’re done here.

nope, same size.

We don’t get most the credit for winning the war? OK, maybe read a book on it or something.

They got screwed over pretty hard - like the Russians waited for the Nazis to wipe them out, then they beat the Nazis and took over.

Lots of people care or at least they should - our military power is a responsibility to the world. We’ve really screwed up with it lately, but its a responsibility that used to be important and used for good things.

I totally agree with that - it was a worldwide effort to beat Hitler and the US did not suffer anywhere close to the casualties or infrastructure damage other allies did like Russia, France, and the UK.

We would have lost the war without them....money, training, guns, uniforms - they saved our asses and it absolutely was our responsbility to help them out in both World Wars.

By “We” I hope you mean the Allies, which mostly consisted of American and British troops with some help from the Free French Forces, Canadians and Australians.

Well they issued a murder warrant for that officer - a step in the right direction!

I don’t know about that. Dallas is actually a fairly liberal city and Texas has a very serious and effective justice system. Two independent investigations are already under way by the Dallas Sherrif Dept. and the Dallas District Attorney. Look up Lupe Valdez and Faith Johnson, heads of each respective group. I think…
