US Marines To Join Portesters in NYC in Occupy Wallstreet Protests!

Bingo, we have a winner here folks! I think you got it exactly right, who else has banks like this? Oh yeah, China

Progressive liberals allow themselves to be put into camps under government control. How could any human be so (*)(*)(*)(*)ing stupid?

 

Now that we've gone through the entire thread and fake marine posters have supported this cause one conclusion can be drawn. Not a single shred of evidence anywhere proves the OP's claim. Which of course was expected.

 

Yes they are. Off duty and out of uniform you can attend any political rally or protest you wish so long as you obey local laws.

I protested the Iraq War while on active duty.

 

Most of the US military is on American soil. Only a small percentage of it is in Iraq, Afghanistan, or stationed in overseas bases.

 

Ok - thanks for letting me know.........

 

You say that like it's a bad thing.

 

That is exactly what they are planning on doing, except the violence is coming from the police, the marines and other miltary men are going to protect the citizens from the police violence.

 

On the one hand the liberal horde hates all military personnel but now they want to use the patriotic qualities of our troops to prove that this anarchist shlt is legitimate.

These Soros trolls in the streets have no idea what they are doing there. FOX asked them what they wanted and some of them had to read their marching orders before they could answer while others just stood there with a blank look in their drug saturated eyes.

 

“I'm heading up there tonight in my dress blues. So far, 15 of my fellow marine buddies are meeting me there, also in Uniform."​

^^That was yesterday...did any Marines actually show up in their dress blues?

 

Wrong of course. Its not that cut and dry.

Not that I believed for a second you actually served.

Good. After they protect the protesters from the police, maybe they'll start working on protecting us all from the man in the white house. He's a lot more dangerous than cops armed with pepper spray.

 

Sounds like propaganda. However, if it's true and they're active duty and they show up in dress uniforms, their command better slap them on the nuts for being sht-bags.

 

If they appear contrary to regulations, and their appearance damages the country, they are no different than any other anti-American...

You imply there are some real number of these folk in the military...a few dozen out of our millions is simply an error in recruiting.

 

The military is the only reliably honorable group in the country.

 

She is an anti American nut....

 

Very informative post - thanks.

 

Do you have a source for this?
