Stewart Rhodes oath keepers leader cool the DOJ pulled out sedition, I’m interested in hearing more about bright boy Stewart I’m just odd we share history we were born same year 1966 and both were airborne so I wonder if stew and I were at Bragg same time.

29. OMG, that movie never gets old.

I first saw it back in the day when it first aired on HBO. Unfortunately I never saw it in the cinema since I was 4 at the time it was released.

3. Too funny, did not know this

"Steward Rhodes lost his eye in 1993. According to sources, he used to be a firearms instructor. Sadly for him, he one day accidentally dropped a firearm that was loaded. The handgun upon hitting the floor fired and shot him in the face. This led to a blinding in his left eye. That was how Steward Rhodes lost his eye."

4. Wow

Thanks HAB

5. Time for, "I Just Fuckin' shot myself...(the musical.)

10. That was bad, but I am still laughing.

[Klondike Kat]

15. Dang it!

Of course I had to go view that again! Still funny after all these years.

[Probatim]

21. The original and the soundtrack will never not by funny.

Tex Scribner is mah hero!

24. Yes

[lagomorph777]

18. Aaaarrrrgh, Matey. That must've stung.

Now get on with it. Walk this plank!

[Evolve Dammit]

20. I hate to admit it, but I find this amusing! And yeah, why would you follow that??

6. Years ago Arizona had a governor named Jack Williams, who also had only one eye.

He was a Republican and a poor governor. So the saying around the state was "In the land
of the blind, the one-eyed man is king."

7. Valid point you make....

All The Way…

[Duncanpup]

9. Always

8. :) His first name's Elmer.

According to a The Atlantic investigation, he dropped a loaded gun and it shot him in the eye.

[gab13by13]

11. He's a Yale grad,

is or was a lawyer. No offense to lawyers.

[FakeNoose]

23. Wikipedia says Rhodes used to work for Ron Paul as a staffer

Also he used to have a law license but he was disbarred by the Montana Supreme Court. (Not sure what that was all about.) I think he lives in Texas now, at least that's where the Feds arrested him.

[LuckyCharms]

12. I love this OP

[gab13by13]

13. He must be pretty rich

or more likely someone is funding him. He bought like $60,000 dollars worth of arms and equipment before and after 1/6.

28. As a matter of fact CNN just ran down a number of contributions received just before and after....

....January 6. Lots of money involved, too.

14. Stephen Colbert said he was the captain of the Pirate Ship Lipitor.

[gab13by13]

16. Your post may be prescient,

I hope that's the right word. We need to shame these people, no worse, condemn them, laugh at them, all of the people involved on 1/6. Make it so it is toxic to be associated with anything to do with them. They need to be called traitors. Just maybe some of this will rub off on the GQP politicians who are afraid of them? We need to push that these people were all traitors and force the GQP to admit they are aligned with traitors. I'm not saying exactly what I mean, but I hope you get the point.

This is why the GQP and Fox pushed the narrative that the insurrection wasn't that bad, they didn't want these people labeled as traitors and I believe they have somewhat succeeded in doing this.

[iscooterliberally]

32. They're definitely traitors. Every one of them. Fuck those guys.

They should be made fun of and yet, I don't want to get anyone's blood boiling anymore than it already is. There's enough of that to go around without adding more fuel to the fire. We should let the law run its process and let cooler heads prevail. It's the hot heads that made this mess. They should be ridiculed for the fools that they are, every step of the way. I hope to see a bunch of GQP traitors go down in this mess that they helped create.

17. The dumb shit was gonna take that long walk to Camp MacKall

But he broke his spine on a jump so let me guess, legs splayed, poor body position, running with the wind and didn't lower his ruck. At night.

Yep, he's a dumb shit.

[Duncanpup]

22. Exactly

[70sEraVet]

25. I was telling my wife just yesterday, that I hoped he lost his eye while in the service

So that, when convicted, they could pull all his veteran bennies including his disability payments.

[WestIndianArchie]

26. Hey

As soon as I read about it. I said the same thing. You are going to follow a guy that shot himself in the face?

Instead of telling him to go home and we'll call you tomorrow, which of course will never come, They follow the guy.

Make no mistake, the dregs have found their voice and unless America deals with them harshly, they WILL destroy the country.

[George II]

27. First thing I thought about:
