We lost a good kid December 19th, it seems. The Marines are being closemouthed, saying LCPL Nicholas Dural died “on duty” as an embassy guard in The Republic of Congo. Other than that, no details have been released and even his father would not provide more specifics.<\/p>\n

Nicholas Dural adored his two sisters, and they adored him, his parents said. At family gatherings, his cousins would flock to him, the way \u201clittle ducks follow a mama duck,\u201d according to Kimberly Dural.<\/p>\n

Nicholas Dural was a squad leader in boot camp, and at graduation drill instructors and new Marines alike came up to his parents to praise him for his leadership, according to Kimberly Dural.<\/p>\n

In April, after completing the nine-week embassy security guard training at Quantico, Virginia, Dural was lunching at a Virginia Chick-fil-A with Cpl. John Darby and Cpl. Bradley Feldkamp when some teens there got into a brawl.<\/p>\n

As the three Marines tried to defuse the situation, Dural saw one of the teens whip out a knife, he told reporters in an April interview.<\/p>\n

His instincts kicked in. He grabbed and twisted the wrist of the teenager who was holding the knife, applying so much pressure to the top of the blade that the knife snapped in two.<\/p>\n

Then Dural went to get a haircut \u2014 and didn\u2019t tell his barber what had just happened.\u00a0 Marine Times<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Read the article. This sounds like a squared away young man with a ton of potential.<\/p>\n

Now let us compare and contrast:<\/p>\n

Claudine Gay, the President at Harvard, was allowed to keep her position after anti-semitic statements, effectively giving a free pass to anti-Israel supporters, and a history of plagiarism dating back into the 1990s according to some articles I have read.\u00a0 She enjoys the “full confidence” of the Harvard Corporation, who allowed her to correct and back-date citations to plagiarized papers. Here is what a student member of the Harvard Honor council says:<\/p>\n

“When my peers are found responsible for multiple instances of inadequate citation, they are often suspended for an academic year. When the president of their university is found responsible for the same types of infractions, the fellows of the Corporation \u2018unanimously stand in support of\u2019 her,” the student wrote.<\/p>\n

“There is one standard for me and my peers and another, much lower standard for our University\u2019s president. The Corporation should resolve the double standard by demanding her resignation,” the student concluded.\u00a0 Fox News<\/a><\/p>\n

Or remember Sam Brinton?\u00a0 The mustachioed bald dress-wearing non-binary former honcho of our NUCLEAR WASTE disposal policy? Sure you do… no one could forget his picture, full make-up and dressed in designer clothes.\u00a0 He got busted for stealing suitcases, while traveling on official business. And we are not talking cheap random bags – one bag he stole was worth over $3500, another was packed with custom designer clothing (which the owner identified him wearing.) Steal thousands in luggage, YOU will go to jail. Sam? Got himself lawyered up and hasn’t even gone to trial on some charges – although one theft got him three days of community service, and he did get fined over $500 and 180 days in another theft – suspended with no time served – and told by the judge to “stay out of trouble.”\u00a0 Oh, and DOE won’t even comment whether they even investigated him. \u00a0 Fox News II<\/a><\/p>\n

I won’t even mention Hunter. Let’s just say LCPL Dural was worth any 500 of these scumbags.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
