Any other vets watching this shit show on border

Tear gas rubber rounds children getting gassed from border guards , my heart broke seeing that little girl she was maybe four or five years old holding her mom after they got tear gassed that child was crying out of fear holding on to her mother man that ripped me up as a father.

I’m 52 years old our kids they are 32 29 25 three grown daughters and two sons still at home 13 and 14.

I find it disgusting I know understand border guards are not bound by possee comitatus or ucmj

Toddlers barefoot and in diapers screaming in terror. That ripped me right up, too.

And the assholes on the right were applauding it!

I don't know how they can go on being so defiant and proud of being cowards. The Trump influence, I guess.
