Dufferoo has flashbacks from the 60s
Gordon Duff posted the video that TSO put up yesterday of members of Veterans For Peace getting their asses stomped by the police for not following directions from the police. Of course, they were hiding behind their veteran status so they could act like doofuses. Duff sees this like its the 60s civil rights abuses in Alabama again;
Duff goes on to walk the thin line between stolen valor and not stolen valor by embellishing his military career…again. He says his “day job” is training foreign police forces and he lumps himself in with the other experienced trainers;
Many of us, certainly the older crowd, were in Vietnam, some training Diem and Thieu’s police, me with a Marine Special Landing Team, or others SEALs, CIA, Special Forces, doing every imaginable job.
I’ve searched the internet for a “Marine Special Landing Team” and I’ve found “Special Purpose Teams” (Special Operations) and “Landing Teams” which are what the Army calls “combined arms task forces”, but I can’t find anything about any “Special Landing Teams”. Anyway, DUff was an E-3 lance corporal TOC Rat at battalion S-3 in Headquarters and Service (H&S) Company 1/5th Marines with 18 total months of military service. He goes on to hint that he “knows” Afghanistan as if he’s ever been there, or even in the neighborhood.
Duff goes on to accuse the troops who he’s ostensibly defending in this post, of loading drug dealer trucks with poppies and guarding the heroine for drug dealers in the middle east.
So in defending the VFP protesters stomped by police, he disparages other troops;
No American hero is safe, not Pat Tillman, shot down by Americans in Afghanistan, not the veterans attacked by police in Boston.
I guess Darth Cheney gave the order to shoot Pat Tillman because he was about to come out against the war and Tillman’s fellow Rangers just went ahead and blindly followed orders to shoot him down in cold blood. Because everyone knows that Rangers are just “dumb missiles” who don’t think for themselves and I think they’re raised on special farms away from real society. none of them grew up around regular people or have consciences.
Nice job, Gordo, tearing into the guys who are doing their job and defend those pinheads in Boston who think that being a veteran gives us the right to obey the laws we like and disobey the ones we don’t. Duff needs to drag his non-service-connected disabled ass up to Boston to see for himself who he’s defending.

Never heard of Duff til today, but it certainly seems like he can get fucked.
Gordy is in “full stupid” once again.
So; he’s the “senior editor”? Who owns the site he blathers from?
What the hell..Marine Special Landing Team? What the Marines called DADT before there WAS DADT?
“see you went full retard. Never go full retard.”
Duff is a re re
Gordon Duff just committed Stolen Valor, can I vote for his ass?
Hey Gordo, why don’t you find out who those “Veterans for Peace” in Boston were? Odds are they never were never veterans and are just some counterfeit leftists who visited an Army surplus store.
I think we here at TAH should refrain from using the word “retard” because it reflects so badly on retards. Instead, we should use the words “Gordon Duff” when we describe something that is incredibly stupid.
For example, “Because the drunk was such a Gordon Duff, he thought syphilis was a new kind of malt liquor.”
Or, “Barack Obama can be so Gordon Duff sometimes that he needs Michelle to explain to him that Charlie Sheehan and Afro-Sheen are not related.”
Should read:
I think we here at TAH should refrain from using the word “retard” when describing Gordon Duff because it reflects so badly on retards.
Another example, when Biden says that the lack of a jobs bill will lead to an increase in rape and murder, it could be said that he’d committed a Duff, or he’d Duffed Up.
And, Gordo, the hippies never stopped calling us pigs, I heard it all the time. You Duffed up, again.
When I think of Gordon Duffs intelligence level and brainy op-ed pieces? Visualize a B-B rolling on a 6 lane freeway…
#6: ha ha point taken.
I have said this before but I really think this guy is a paranoid schizophrenic.
Now if he were a “vet” he’d know that you NEED to obey lawful orders or you’re ass is going to be in a world of pain. Keep in mind that this is NOT the 60’s and even the 60’s were not the 60’s. Kent state, Tet ’68, Woodstock, and the hippie movement, are, or rather WERE not as history remembers them.
Kent state students were in a state of near riot and Federal troops were called in to restore order. Tet wasn’t a near victory for the NVZ/VC is was a complete disaster. Woodstock wasn’t “fighting the power” it was a bunch of people getting drunk/stoned off their ass while at a concert, and what POSSIBLE impact a 3 day concert in upstate NY could have actually had is extremely debatable. Lastly Hippies didn’t want peace, or at least they didn’t want America to be at peace. It may have started as a “hey I really don’t know why we’re fighting this war” but it turned into a whole culture that was nothing but a massive drain, and so full of shit and hatred that reintegrating them into society took nearly a decade, and some (many actually) had died long before that from ODs and this weird sexual disease we would come to know and love as AIDS.
So Duff may have been there but he completely missed the fucking point of the 60’s.
I think, presented with this information, even a real retard would call him retarded. Hell, most of my REProbated (Reserve Enlistment Program)probably have more sense than that chucklehead.

The Marine Landing Teams, were just a floating Marine Infantry battalion. They were the predecessor of the Modern MEU(Marine Expeditionary Unit). There were a few instances of them landing and fighitng briefly in Vietnam.
P.S. Yep Jonn, the Marines’ think they invented combined arms. Go ahead ask ’em about a MAGTF.
As an aside, I could have sworn I just read, that down in DC, Vets for Peace, thought pushing all the elevator buttons in some building was a real protest because of the inconvenience. The last sentence is not fiction, can’t remember which article I saw it in.
Holy Shit, do they let him out alone?
“Duff needs to drag his non-service-connected disabled ass up to Boston to see for himself who he’s defending.”
Why? You know it wouldn’t change anything. Duff needs neither evidence nor rational thinking to sustain himself or his asinine views. He is a deep-ender, a True Believer. That’s all there is to it. His own words are sufficient to bury him should he ever be acknowledged as an authoritative or representative voice on any matter related to veterans.
Pennsylvania officer shot and killed yesterday by fugitive.

You still want to call them “pigs” Gordo?
I would have to ask who would maintain order, without the “pigs”
