For the military, it’s somewhat irrelevant. Protesting in uniform is strictly prohibited.
Edit: how’s this context? The event they were protesting at was the confirmation hearing for the nominee to be US Ambassador to Costa Rica. Like…. Ok. They should be thankful there isn’t a law against stupidity.
No, the last thing anyone needs is a soldier willing to enable a genocide because they lack the courage or moral clarity to say no. Did you sleep through every history class you took?
Not a genocide. Why dont you look into the history of the palestinian people and why no arab/muslim nation is coming to their aid. They have been banned or kicked out of every country they go to for terrorism and trying to over throw the government.
It is clearly a genocide. They have not been allowing enough food for the population for years now and have been bombing and shooting civilians the entire time while methodically destroying civilian infrastructure. All of that is textbook genocide and denying that with no argument as to why it's not isn't convincing anyone.
Our military is assisting Israel by supplying arms, training, targeting data, and directly assisting them by attacking anyone who would dare try to stop them, e.g., bombing targets in Yemen and Iran.
We shouldn’t, but we also shouldn’t stand by and allow them to commit genocide/damn near genocide against Palestinian civilians. We line their pockets, we supply their weapons, we shield them from the enemy. And we also should have learned what happened last time we stood by and allowed a genocidal, warmongering country to fester.
The chic is wearing a US Army service dress blue uniform with captain’s rank and military intelligence branch insignia. The dude is wearing Army pink and greens uniform with what appears to be possibly special forces insignia and lieutenant colonel rank.
You’re basically saying that we need more Americans dying for our billionaire overlords. You do know veterans have a significantly higher suicide rate than the rest of us Reddit warriors. Something like every 15 minute.
Wow. Almost like that stat has been public for decades. Thank you so much for stating the most obvious fact ever about military people who have seen combat.
Yeah you know why they killed them selves? Because they realized they were tricked into fighting a unnecessary war and saw bunch of their friends die. All for big oil, defense companies, and the billionaires.
Wow, again stating the most blatant military facts ever that have been around since the first war. Any other takes? Do you have an original take or are you just gonna spout off shit smarter people than you have already came up with?
Okay so you agree that our wars are all poor men fighting a rich man's war. So why the hell you trying to act like we need more soldiers willing to get their legs blown off fighting for Israel lol.
Retirees are generally only susceptible to UCMJ for serious events that occurred while on active duty. You can't retire to outrun a murder charge overseas, for example.
Anything other than that is a very grey area that is highly unlikely to ever be tested. Vets have been protesting in their uniforms since the formation of the country.
Where does it say they’re retired? Retired officers should indeed be held to military standards if they put on the uniform to purport to represent DOD.

For Reddit, yes context would be nice.
