Yet Gorsuch only received 3 votes from the Democrats. Please...

Kind of like how Hillary Clinton's testimony went several years ago. Oh well...at this point, what difference does is make?
-
Well, you got your investigation...now comes the vote. Democrats overplayed their hand.

Don't blame Deborah James for our current pilot crisis...she was focusing on the real problems in the Air Force. https://www.airforcetimes.com/education-transition/jobs/2015/03/04/air-force-secretary-announces-bold-moves-to-boost-women-minorities/

By the beard of Zeus — Canadian military OKs facial hair Unfortunately, I'll probably retired before this comes to the USAF... https://www.militarytimes.com/off-duty/military-culture/2018/09/28/by-the-beard-of-zeus-canadian-military-oks-facial-hair/

Ok...so what is the credible evidence that these allegations are true? I have yet to see such evidence and have actually heard people deny that's the allegations are true just based off the simple logistics of who was where and when. If there is credible evidence out there then why is it being withheld? By the way, when is Keith Ellison dropping out of the MN AG race and resigning his position with the DNC? Exactly...

It's a good thing that I serve in a professional organization that only judges people on their merit and not the color of their skin...

If public schools are worth attending then why do so many wealthy progressives send their children to private schools?

Do you honestly believe that the decision to train/not train internationals at UPT is made at the HAF level?

Oh please...progressives don't care about maintaining the integrity of government anymore than statists who self identify as conservatives. Just look at the IRS scandals, Fast and Furious, Obama's Attorney General refusing to cooperate with releasing government records to Congress, and on and on. So don't give me the "it's different now" BS. I'm not a fan of the political games/nonsense when Trump does it anymore than when the same was done by his predecessors. But to say that it's worse today than a few years ago just goes to show your bias. You don't like Trump because he signed a tax cut, has reversed many of Obama's executive orders/allowed for more deregulation, gets to put put at least two new conservatives on the Supreme Court, etc. You have even recently said yourself that our gun rights need to be reduced...again, you're a progressive, so I just see everything you post regarding Trump as bias. I, on the other hand, can tell you that there are many of Trump's policies that I disagree with and think is causing some harm to the country in some areas, while at the same time see thst some of his policies are improving quite a few things from just a few years ago. As for Trump himself, he's not anything close to as classy as Obama or Bush when it comes to speaking/rhetoric...but I've learned over the last couple of decades that actions speak a lot louder than words.

You're digging yourself a hole man, but keep going! "People who live in glass houses..."
-
So Obama can fire his top Generals for being "a thorn in his side", but Trump can't take away a government security clearance (for someone who is no longer working for the government) for also being "a thorn in his side"? I get it dude, you don't like Trump and don't like 99% of what he does, so why should this be any different?
-
It shows that you're not credible, that's all...
-
Weren't you almost court martialed or something close to that effect?
-
How do you 'fire yourself'? And if you're for Obama removing anyone he wants then why are you against Trump revoking security clearances?
-
Yeah...Obama just fired him instead. So much for "trust".
-
By what day will this happen? I just want to check back on the date you provide to see if your expectation was correct or not...
-
When the one suggesting such nonsense has only been a FAIP.
-
Yeah...rights are horrible things.

Register? Unless you live in one of the few progressive states that are extremely anti-2A, there is no federal requirement to register non-NFA firearms, which probably accounts for more than 98% of the firearms in private hands, including semi-auto AR-15s, AKs, etc. When you purchase a firearm from a licensed dealer, you fill out a BATFE Form 4473 in order for an instant background check to be completed. The licensed dealer is then required to keep the form for 20 years and allow the ATF to view the form at anytime on demand. Also, if you then decide to sell the firearm as a non-licensed dealer, there is no federal requirement to perform a background check, keep a record of the transaction, etc...and that's where the paper-trail stops.
-
So if I rent a drill press from a business (who is not a licensed firearm manufacturer) and use it to make my own firearm, then the business and I have committed a crime? I don't think so...
-
Fair enough...the reg was updated/changed and I wasn't aware and was wrong. Thanks for the correction.

You have always had to apply for separation...this is nothing new. Hence why you will be AWOL if you're no longer under an ADSC and stopped coming to work. To play devil's advocate--if you wanted out so badly then why didn't you apply for separation at your earliest chance? There are very few things I'll defend Big Blue on when it comes to new regs/policies, and I'm definitely not a supporter of more deployments (I think the US should be less involved in the world, not more)...but all that being said, I'm not a fan of people staying in past their commitment and then also complaining of having to deploy when they're called up. Just because you're eligible for separation or retirement doesn't mean you don't have to do your job. Now if you believe you were unfairly targeted for the deployment (i.e. not given dwell time, handed the deployment when someone else was due for it, etc) then I'm definitely all ears...but that has nothing to do with being given deployment orders while you're still AD. Knowledge is power--know the regs and make sure they work for you.

Questions on the GI Bill (Tuition Aid)
HeloDude replied to USAF Pirate's topic in General Discussion
Sure hope so. Either way, for all those guys sitting close to 16 years (who plan on retiring) and who haven't yet transferred the benefits--better get on it!
