In reply to the discussion: Lieutenant becomes first woman to lead Marine infantry platoon... [View all]ADX
(1,622 posts)44. I sense some reading comprehension issues coming from you...
...are you really that quick to jump to erroneous conclusions?
If you had taken the time to read through the entire thread before racing to hit the "post my reply" button, you would have read post #23, which I posted about 9 full hours BEFORE you came along with your bullshit assertion. Unless you're incapable of reading beyond the first-grade level, that post pretty much speaks for itself. Furthermore, if you would be so kind as to point out exactly what I've said at ANY point in this thread that led you to believe that I was somehow threatened by women or opposed to female Marine Corps infantry leaders, I'd sure like to be made aware of it.
Take your time, I'll wait...
