Phony Marine Hero Faces 60 Years
Hispanic Man Impersonates As Marine Hero – Flees U.S. After Being Found Out
I read about this guy recently in the Arizona Republic about how he impersonated a marine hero, wearing the Navy Cross, crashing Marine Corps Ball's and who, as it turns out, is not only NOT a marine hero but a complete phony! Seems he never got any closer to serving in the miltary than the one time a corporal ate in the same Taco Bell he worked in. Do you find that statement offensive because our "hero's" name is hispanic? Am I guilty of racial profiling? Maybe, but it's not nearly as offensive as what he did, claiming falsely the honor of wearing one of our country's highest military awards. One thing the story didn't touch on at all was, is this buy even in this country legally? Being from Arizona, a state in the throes of racial hell and with immigration problems out of control, I have a right to know.
"Sgt." John Rodriguez, a hispanic man convicted this month of up to 12 counts of forgery and fraud for impersonating a marine hero and Navy Cross winner, has flown the coop. This after posting bail and then not showing up in court to answer his accusers. Just a tad suspicious behavior for a "hero" with the Navy Cross.
My Dog Is A Marine Corps General
I sit here stunned that someone like this could have gotten away with with impersonating a marine but the really shocking thing about it is how long he was able to perpetuate the charade. Now you know ol Duke (my choc lab) here is pulling your leg with his impersonation of a marine general officer, pretty obvious actually because after all, he is a dog. Has racial profiling infiltrated the military? Were other marines afraid to question the heroism of a hispanic man? Excuse me, wasn't it profiling that the FBI used successfully in investigations that lead to the capture of serial killers like Ted Bundy and John Wayne Gacy? Havn't all of our police officers been trained in profiling so that crimes can be prevented before they happen. I see nothing racial about profiling, law enforcement lives by it. (more…)
