Quote:“Mr. Khan, who has never met me, has no right
to stand in front of millions of people and claim I have never read the Constitution
, (which is false) and say many other inaccurate things.”

- Donald J. Trump


Chock full of irony. Maybe he just read the Cliff Notes.

Slander isn't protected by first amendment.

 

This is manufactured outrage by the left, again.

Dear Mr. Khan,

I want to preface this letter by stating that I respect your son’s sacrifice for this great nation.  By all accounts, he is a true hero that sacrificed himself in service to our country. For that I am thankful.

 

As a veteran, I watched your comments at the Democratic National Convention with a mixture of sadness, and anger.  The United States has a military comprised of volunteers.  Every single member has made the conscious choice to join the military and serve.  There is not a single service member who has been forced into service.  It is important for all service members (and apparently, their families) to understand that service to this great nation does not imbue one with special privileges or rights.  I found your comments troubling when you said: “Have you ever been to Arlington cemetery? Go look at the graves of brave patriots who died defending the United States of America. You will see all faiths, genders and ethnicities. You have sacrificed nothing and no one.”

 

Does it matter whether Mr. Trump has sacrificed “…nothing and no one?”…has Ms. Clinton “..sacrificed” for this nation?  How about Mr. Obama?   Your comment stating that Mr. Trump “…has sacrifice no one” is alarming.  Are you intimating that YOU sacrificed?  Sir, your son willingly sacrificed himself.   As a father I cannot imagine the pain you must feel but his sacrifice is his own.  He was not forced to serve.

 

I am troubled that you would allow a party that has little more than contempt for the US Service Member to parade you into the DNC to denounce Donald Trump.  Did you watch when protesters at the DNC booed and heckled Medal of Honor recipient Capt. Florent Groberg? Did you notice your party interrupting the moment of silence for slain police officers?  Your own hypocrisy in not denouncing these acts and instead using the DNC as a platform to make a political point is disgraceful.  The simple fact is that whether one served or sacrificed does not give greater power to their statements.  One vote is as valuable as another.  That sir, is why our Country is great.  Your condemnation of one person for a statement while standing idly as your party disparages veterans and police officers is the height of hypocrisy.

 

To conflate the need to prevent potential terrorists from entering our country with the belief that ‘all Muslims’ should be banned is simply wrong and disingenuous As a reminder, Mr. Trump said: ” “Until we are able to determine and understand this problem and the dangerous threat it poses, our country cannot be the victims of horrendous attacks by people that believe only in Jihad, and have no sense of reason or respect for human life,” The irony of your son’s own death at the hands of these very people in Iraq should not be ignored.  I have little doubt that your son would have recognized the need to protect our country from these very people.  In fact, he held his own troops back so that he could check on a suspicious car.  Your son understood sacrifice and how to protect “his people”…’his soldiers’….’his fellow Americans’…

 

As you continue to make the media circuit and bask in the glow of affection cast upon you by a party that has little regard for your son’s own sacrifice, and veterans in general, I would ask you to consider your comments and your position more closely.

 

Respectfully,

 

Chris Mark

US Marine and Navy Veteran.

This guy seems to have missed the point however about what Mr Khan was saying.

The claim Khan makes is preposterous, but if true THEIR SON WOULD STILL BE ALIVE.

 

Meanwhile, Hillary went on the Sunday shows and doubled down on the lie she told after Benghazi.  She's actually blaming the mother of the slain soldier.  It doesn't get any lower than this.  https://youtu.be/RtbNZ6LJEHc

Interesting. So Mr. Khan is an activist for Sharia law, lawyer for Muslim immigration, proponent of OPEC, and heaps praise for the Muslim Brotherhood. Explains why Democrats were so eager to use him as an attack dog and why his wife wasn't allowed to speak.

Regardless, it is hard to take anything the media spins seriously these days. They attack Trump over his comments about the overly submissive wife, but where was the outrage over the attacks on Patricia Smith, whose face Hillary Clinton lied to? What about Dorothy Woods, who Hillary Clinton told to get over her sons death? Also, didn't Khan's son die in the Iraq war, a war Hillary Clinton voted and pushed for? Lunacy, to be honest.

What point are you trying to make with your blanket question exactly? Is America better than every other country? Probably. Is it as great as it could be? Absolutely not.

 

You can't just defend everything that has or hasn't been done by asking about the greatness of our country to combat every comment made.

Manufactured outrage!?

 

Trump insulted the grieving parents of an American soldier. It's frankly amazing this isn't bigger news. In any election cycle before this an incident of this kind would have caused more outrage. Now, however, it just becomes one of the many terrible views that Trump has put out there.

 

Imagine, for a moment, if Obama had insulted the grieving parents of an American soldier?

And shame on you for this. Anybody with half a brain who reads that nonsense can see it for what it is. You talk about media having an agenda and then you share garbage like this.

 

From the conclusion of the article " Is it likely that Khan’s son was killed before his Islamist mission was accomplished? Only another type of investigation will determine that.  Do they ever mention how many soldiers have died because of Muslim traitors? Do they ever bring up how many Christians in the US military were killed? Yet the modernists and homosexuals continue to attack Christians." 

 

Poisonous stuff.

Mr. Khan opened himself up for things like this when he accepted Clinton's invite to be a pawn at her convention. While it is horrible what happened to his son, did he expect to be able to question Donald Trump's constitutional ethics and receive no backlash?

Where was the outrage when Hillary Clinton lied to Patricia Smith and told Dorothy Woods to move on after their children were killed in Benghazi?

 

Where was it? Where were the 30+ stories from CNN, NYT, MSNBC, Politico, and WaPo attacking her credibility after her statements to Dorothy Woods and Patricia Smith? They were busy ATTACKING Dorothy Woods and Patricia smith instead.

 

This is manufactured outrage by the left. Nothing more, nothing less.

Hoo, boy...must it always be explained? When your defense is "Yeah, but what about Hillary?!?!" it merely reinforces the case against Trump, by lack of any defense.

Lack of defense? There is nothing to defend, I agree with him. Khan is full of crap, is completely wrong in his statements about the constitution,and his background explains why his wife stood silently and obedient. His son was the hero, but it was his sacrifice, not the fathers or mothers. His son was a volunteer. The media outrage reinforces the fact that it is controlled by the DNC (which the leaked DNC emails also prove).

It is abundantly clear that rational argument is lost on you, so I'll leave it at this. There were / are plenty of stories about those things. They are also completely different things. Here is a story from CNN, that satanic mass media outlet: http://edition.cnn.com/2016/06/30/politi...ods-widow/

 

Clinton is clearly talking about how, after all of the investigations and the findings came out, it was time for the news cycle to move on. As far as her 'lies' there is no evidence about this.

 

Trump, however, was directly addressing and insulting Khan's parents. His tweet, his words. How can you justify what he said? Any compassionate decent human being saw a grieving mother on stage, whereas Trump only saw a Muslim and immediately projected his own stereotypes and prejudice onto her.

Random question. You can answer it or not. You have 89 posts and have been a member on here for 9 years posting heavily in the political forum.

 

What gives?

I saw the MSM attack Patricia Smith in unison for going on-stage at the RNC MUCH worse than Trump's statements on the Khans. The DNC is using the Khan's as an attack dog against Trump and Trump punched back. I have no qualms with Trump's statements. Guess that makes me Hitler, Satan, Musollini, or whatever buzzname you want to throw out.

So you agree with Trump's response? I suppose any time you put yourself in the public eye you do open yourself up to a backlash, but the fact that that backlash actually came from a presidential candidate is staggering. How can you agree with what Trump said? And, if you don't agree, how can you support such a man to be president? He is a bigoted, strong-man candidate who is fueling prejudice and stoking anger in the American people.
