John “Leatherneck” Courson, the self-publicized Marine… who during the Vietnam War never left the continental United States because his dad was able to pull strings to keep Jr. out of harms way. John likes to talk about how he’s a Marine, but fails to tell you that his combat experience ended at boot camp.

Sorry, I do not share your praise of Courson. His main claim to fame was imitating Strom Thurmond and not too well either. He does love to brag of being a Marine and is referred to as a “Baby Blue Marine”.
Fred Carter was the same. once heard him brag of having a Rifle Company in Vietnam. I met a Marine Colonel (friend of Carter) who said, It was “not true”. Who knows? This was in the day when “Stolen Valor” was not so unacceptable.

Semper, what is a “Baby Blue Marine”? Seriously, never heard of it?

FITS, see if you can get THE HONORABLE, JOHN “MARINE”COURSON, to give you a run down on his “marine career” that he ‘wears on his sleeve’. My take is he’s had no more marine experience maybe than a trip to Paris Island for no more than to dodge the Vietnam War. Tell him to “MAN UP, be a “MARINE” and tell us all about his “service to his country.

OK, have no immediate problem with willie or anyone else love stroking a Cockroach a couple of times

However, once you pull back your slime filled hand take your right foot and stomp the shit out of the little bastard

These Cockroaches spend 24/7 sticking it up the taxpayer’s ass

Did the Cockroaches do anything constructive to improve public education
Did the Cockroaches do anything constructive to improve roads
Did the Cockroaches do anything to improve quality of life

Oh, they took down a flag, damn I’ll sleep better tonight

Courson is one of the three flag flappers responsible for the past few weeks of misery, forcing it to a flag pole beside the *existing* Civil War Monument, erected in 1889 and never having a flag until 2000. Not to mention Cockroach Courson and his nepotistic employ of family members and friends on Senate staff makes him a miserable, worthless scumbag whose 35 years of “service” has run its course. Time for him to be retired, if by a Shandonista Democrat, so be it, Courson is no different, other than flapping of his jaws about Reagan. The Caucus cannot depend on him anyway, so good riddance, hopefully sooner rather than later.

He does deserve credit for preventing a huge clusterphuck, back in the day. Will is right, giving counties and municipalities the ability to pass their own gun laws would have been a nightmare for a good citizen.

I am curious though. What has John done for us lately? Did he sponsor any legislation for Constitutional Carry, removal of current Gun Free Zones, expanded reciprocity, or the like. Or has he flipped, like Jake did and Katrina seems to be trying to do? Just wondering.

Oh, I don’t want to hear about NRA life memberships or NRA-ILA endorsements. Those are meaningless anymore as the NRA will just about endorse anyone who “says” they are pro-gun and who may have ever voted favorably for a pro-2A bill, regardless of how many bad votes they have cast since.

Why are you people so hysterical over a time limited ordinance that appears to have been passed to deal with what a bunch of Columbia City Council idiots thought was a threat produced by the issues surrounding the Confederate flag?

The 30 days are almost up, right?

But, not soon enough to prevent frivolous Republican lawsuits?

Maybe because it’s an illegal ordinance???

Are you okay with the city passing ordinances that are illegal… time limited or not? Do you think the ordinance is going to keep the thugs of Columbia away? If anything it lets them know that the law abiding citizens that are there will be unarmed.
