And, oh, Copeland bought an airplane, so that proves he&#8217;s a charlatan, somehow.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s the statement from Copeland that frightens the heathens at VoteVets and MRFF;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cSo this is a promise\u2014if you do this thing, if you arm yourselves before the Lord for the war\u2026you shall return, you\u2019re coming back, and be guiltless before the Lord and before the nation. Any of you suffering from PTSD right now, you listen to me. You get rid of that right now. You don\u2019t take drugs to get rid of it. It doesn\u2019t take psychology. That promise right there will get rid of it.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I&#8217;m not a terribly religious person, but, you know, some people might respond favorably to a little God in their lives if they need Him. So, who the F is Mikey and Jon Solz to say otherwise?<\/p>\n<p>Fort Jackson responded to The State&#8217;s inquiry;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Fort Jackson, the nation\u2019s largest basic training installation, responded to The State on Friday saying that military prayer breakfasts and luncheons have been held since the 1950s and have hosted \u201creligious leaders from many faith traditions and denominations, cultural leaders, and foreign heads of state.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Prayer Breakfast is open to all community members, is entirely voluntary, and is cost free to the Army and attendees,\u201d it said. \u201cMr. Copeland\u2019s participation in the prayer breakfast is not an endorsement by Fort Jackson of him or of any comments that he may present. Fort Jackson respects and protects all (individuals\u2019) rights under the First Amendment to the Constitution, including ensuring access to religious services and events for those who wish to participate and protecting the rights of those who do not.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Mikey&#8217;s pockets must be light, time to shear the sheep.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>3E9 sends us a link to South Carolina&#8217;s The State which reports that the George Soros-connected &hellip; <a title=\"VoteVets team with MRFF against prayer breakfast in Fort Jackson\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=77438\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">VoteVets team with MRFF against prayer breakfast in Fort Jackson<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":65115,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[177],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-77438","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-dumbass-bullshit"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/77438","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=77438"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/77438\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/65115"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=77438"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=77438"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=77438"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
