Matthis screwed to the wall
IVAW's Matthis Chiroux, Robyn Murray and MFSO's Elaine Brower burn the US flag "This is not my country!"
Apparently the IVAW Board has reversed itself, changed last month’s vote on whether or not to punish Matthis for his flag-burning escapades.
Typical sociopath; “Give me something else to burn” He doesn’t learn from his mistakes – he tries to go bigger and flashier to stick it to the man – the man in this case is the IVAW Board, apparently. And of his little enablers chirping up a storm of support. And he basks in the glow of their adulation.
The IVAW board, who caved under the weight of disgust of Matthis’ actions last month are finally doing what they should have done in the first place. But they don’t get cheers from me because it only proves that they’ll only do what is the most politically expedient, balancing the organization between the extemists of the Far Left International Socialist Organization and the veterans who merely oppose the war.
Well, those of you who merely oppose the war know now what Board member Matthis thinks of you. You “only police the radicals” these days.
So why are you still there again? Matthis ain’t leavin’ – him and Ward Reilly will be there to turn out the lights.

I rather liked that comment about burning the constitution, since we weren’t using it anyway.
Jackass
I’m thinking Sara and Jim need to go fuck themselves.
Is this the same libertarian party activist Jim Davidson who has gone on the record callIng all service members rapists and murderers who need to be slaughtered? Perfect company.
Sparky, I am with you! I am still pissed at this idiot, and thinks he should be held to account, for his claim to being a Combat Veteran of Afghanistan. Six days in theater safely behind the walls of BAF, does not a Combat Vet make!!!! Grrrrrrr
AS – comment?
Lashing out at the IVAW for not supporting him unconditionally is about as dumb as lashing out at his father. Next he will be making a “confession” about how the IVAW abused him.
Matthis,
I feel your pain!!! You ask for something else to burn and agree with you 100% Before you were born and during the Vietnam conflict ‘monks’ poured gasoline (leaded in those days) on themselves and lit the match … effectively becoming human torches. BTW, the media swarmed all over those dudes once they cooled down. You might consider that option.
Is it just me, or is there a large amount of lunacy amongst this group? I mean, if you look at his photo comments, where his is getting cuffed, someone is asking the Arresting Officer if he read Malcolm X’s autobiography. Are they dumb enough to not know when to turn off the rhetoric?
O/T-I’m not sure if you’ve seen this doofus before, but this seems up your aisle:

The “movement police”…LOL…that is too funny.
My question is what sort of ‘reprimand’ are they (IVAW) really talking about? Seriously. Does anyone believe there are actual guidelines in place to handle this situation? Seems the only intelligent solution is to throw Matthis’ sorry ass out of the IVAW (finally). Do they have the balls to do it? Unfortunately, I doubt they do or will.
And this begs another question — will the delusional egomaniac actually acknowledge their authority to do so? Again… doubtful. Should be interesting to watch events unfold. This seems to be another pivotal moment in the life (or should I say death) of the IVAW.
Oh. Brother. This guy has the mind of an adolescent for God’s sake. What an absolute fool.
Looks like he got his way. The IVAW board backed off.
y’all are facebook stalkers.
It’s “ya’ll”, not “y’all”, and you’re a sad and pathetic excuse for anything relevant. Do you have something constructive to add to the conversation, or would you rather just play in traffic?
The IVAW board backed off? Wish I could say I was surprised. That’ll surely amp up his power trip (yet again). Ah, well.
