From what it sounds like, Str8edge posted the info and picture of his son after the topic of "sacrifice" was the gripe of the day between the two of you... and you called him a liar when he told the story... and then he offered evidence by posting pics and documents after the fact.
Just think, at that point if you had simply said, "I'm sorry for your loss and sacrifice." and just let it go, we wouldn't even be having this conversation years later. It would have been over right there, and may have even healed the rift between you two just a little. I kind of doubt it, but maybe.
The thing is, calling someone's mom a whore or wife a slut is one thing, but ridiculing someone's dead child is probably going to get most of the forum lined up against you.
Off my soapbox.
you could have downloaded those "commendations" from anywhere. You've never proven the authenticity of ANY of it.Str8tEdge » 09 Mar 2023, 7:58 pm » wrote: ↑ He immediately called me a liar so I presented the commendation from Trump, the letters from his admirals, and finally the coffin pics which he then said he made his Windows screensaver.
He's more of a drunk than anything though and I suspect my 35+years of sobriety is the REAL THREAT to @maineman .![]()

If I posted a photo of Emmet Till - or any young adult in a coffin - and claimed he was my dead son who had been a sailor who had died, would you believe me? Especially if had called you a stolen valor liar?RedheadedStranger » 09 Mar 2023, 7:59 pm » wrote: ↑ Insulting people personally is what occurs in forums like this and is to be expected.

again @Redheaded Stranger are you really going to condone this sort of **** and claim that HE'S got some moral high ground here simply because he claims he had a son who was a sailor who took his own life. Don't you realize that @Str8tEdge might very well be a nineteen year old girl with pimples posting from her step-mom's basement?Str8tEdge » 09 Mar 2023, 8:07 pm » wrote: ↑ Instead, now I have to remind him daily of his mail order bride's prostitution days before his/her pimp shipped him/her off.![]()

I only saw one other poster that joined in your glee of a Navy Vet commiting suicide after two tours in the M.E.
Maybe it's you two that should get a room.
You have to admit though, your besmirching of a fellow Navy Vet that passed away is a bit "out of character" for someone that says they were a Naval Officer.maineman » 09 Mar 2023, 8:34 pm » wrote: ↑ but you joined a lot of MAGAts it supporting his accusations of stolen valor for me and you are UNIQUE in your concurrent belittling of THAT insult and your total belief in the veracity of his coffin pictures.
Odd? Not really, once you understand what tribe you are in.
I get it. The internet is too toxic, and I am not sure I know, how to make it less so. On the other dot org site, I had been able to build bridges and fences and common ground with a couple of righties... @SixShooter was one of them. On this site, I have built some tentative bridges with @ROG62 and I hope to further solidify that goodwill. I offered an olive branch to @Str8tEdge years ago. He told me to go **** off. If you think I jumped a sharked that he was sitting in the boat watching me do it, you're wrong. But I ain't gonna start a fight with you about it. We're on the same team.Mrkelly » 09 Mar 2023, 8:34 pm » wrote: ↑ here is where you jump the shark with me
i don’t give a damn about you and STR8
you could both be kids in a basement for all I know
But to say that about ANYBODY that commits suicide , is beyond the pale
to sound so uncaring about someone that is so broken that they have been driven to the point of killing themselves is repulsive to me
again, this has nothing to do with your battle with STR8
his thread is stupid
this has to do with this statement
if they believed that the supposed navy vet was legit.RedheadedStranger » 09 Mar 2023, 8:40 pm » wrote: ↑ You have to admit though, your besmirching of a fellow Navy Vet that passed away is a bit "out of character" for someone that says they were a Naval Officer.
What would your retired Naval brethren think if the saw your posts belittling a fellow Navy Vet that had committed suicide from the stress of coming home to a **** situation after a couple of deployments?
I highly doubt they would laugh along with you about it.
one way to make it less toxic is to not make blanket statements that are hurtful to people that have wondered why there loved ones committed suicide to try to make points with some anonymous asshole on the internet by calling the poor soles ******maineman » 09 Mar 2023, 8:50 pm » wrote: ↑ I get it.
