But seems that lately there is a mass of so called Conservatives views whining about the Left. I care less about your political affiliation, and as to whom you hint you love as leader. No, I am not a Liberal if I don’t agree with your ideological push. Let’s get back for this site to be about the military. <br />If the Admins feel that I am out of line, you can delete me.

Historically the military has been a conservative community.Response by SFC Melvin Brandenburg made Mar 23 at 2021 9:32 AM2021-03-23T09:32:49-04:002021-03-23T09:32:49-04:00LTC Kevin B.6846339<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>If you stay in the Answers forum, you'll stayed focused on the military-related questions. The Home Feed and the tagged areas are where you find all of the political content. If that turns you off, then just stay focused on the Answers feed.<br /><br />RP does seem to have more conservatives. Of course, it could also be that they are the most vocal and active on the political posts.Response by LTC Kevin B. made Mar 23 at 2021 10:01 AM2021-03-23T10:01:59-04:002021-03-23T10:01:59-04:00MAJ Private RallyPoint Member6846367<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>There are plenty of other platforms that are better suited to political discussion. We should try to stick to the tradition of the Military being non-political, especially in these extremely polarized times.Response by MAJ Private RallyPoint Member made Mar 23 at 2021 10:16 AM2021-03-23T10:16:50-04:002021-03-23T10:16:50-04:00SPC Curtis Underwood6846370<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Well ask your self, Why did you join the service?<br />Is it because you believe in freedom and our constitution?<br />or<br />Is it because you wanted to protect our way of life?<br />or<br />Is it both of these or none of these?<br />That answer, is the reason the majority of service members are conservative.<br />Now as to the reason they discuss the political situation, is because most of them know that no good can come of a government that is socialistic in nature.<br />So this worries them because they have families that have to be here while they are away keeping communisms and other countries that do not support freedom away.<br />I don't think of them as whining as you call it. They are saying what they believe and trying to figure out what can be done about it. <br />The reason there is so much discussion is right now there is no answer. This intensifies their worries. The military is not helping with new rules about not discussing this. It only makes matters worse and makes them more set against what is going on.Response by SPC Curtis Underwood made Mar 23 at 2021 10:18 AM2021-03-23T10:18:26-04:002021-03-23T10:18:26-04:001SG Private RallyPoint Member6846388<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>There are more non-conservative service members than ever before. There are plenty of closet liberals and non-conservatives that just go along to get along.Response by 1SG Private RallyPoint Member made Mar 23 at 2021 10:23 AM2021-03-23T10:23:59-04:002021-03-23T10:23:59-04:00SPC Maurice Evans8862784<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I would like to make a statement to members of RP. The reason I joined this site was to get advice on how to get help to repair my house after the Dec. 10 2021 tornado in Mayfield , Ky which did 45k damage to my house and farm bureau who can sue me if they wish like to advertise for them I am sure a conservative organization cheated me and only gave me 21k. I have received no such help here probably because I am non-political which on this site is a sin!! I wish no one to feel sorry for me or to now try and help me. I served in STRATCOM in a job that could have lead to prision every day I worked or so I was told and I did see a number rof men arrested. My main job was to keep MAD stable. My only regret in my Military service is when I was at Ft Leavenworth and it ws my job if while on duty to relay the message of nuclear attack to CNC Nixon and return the reply to SAC. My only regret is cause by the silliness and meaness of the way I have been treated on this sire and that regret is I never received that message from NORAD and could return the reply to SAC so this world would not exist now!!!I hope you have my same feelings because President Nixon was a conservative and who better to end the world. LOL By the way someone please call the FBI because my city police department is picking on me and I need to report them. They unlike you all should be sympathetic because my mother worked for them in DC during WW2 and unfortunately I do not know here political stand thank you for your time and please drive thru and thanks for going Greyhound!!!!!!!Response by SPC Maurice Evans made Sep 6 at 2024 10:06 AM2024-09-06T10:06:49-04:002024-09-06T10:06:49-04:002021-03-23T09:24:05-04:00
