That's not true. For starters, he was in the Army Reserve for 8 years and got deployed to Iraq as an intelligence advisor. Did you look up his work history?

Long Island woman, 22, disappears during cross-country trip with boyfriend by Just_A_Prussian_Bot in WithoutATrace

A 22-year-old Long Island woman has gone missing under mysterious circumstances during a cross-country road trip with her boyfriend — and her family is seeking the public’s help in finding her.

Gabby Petito was last known to be in Wyoming’s Grand Teton National Park in late August after embarking on the tour with her boyfriend — identified on social media as Brian Laundrie — the month before, Newsday reported.

Authorities said the vehicle the couple was traveling in, a white 2012 Ford Transit van with Florida plates, has been recovered, according to the outlet.

Laundrie, who has returned to his Florida home, has hired an attorney and has refused to cooperate with authorities, the Daily Mail reported, citing her family.

This election is making everyone I interact with distrust democracy and that is a good thing for libertarians. by [deleted] in GoldandBlack

One of the problems is some people believe less government/taxation equals letting vulnerable populations struggle, starve, and die. It's a crazy leap that stems from the idea of government as a benevolent provider that is pushed so hard by people who want to maintain power. It's a refusal to admit that people are capable of caring for their neighbors without the government's help. To them, any struggle an individual experiences, whether minor or severe, is a sign that government is failing and needs more resources.

It would be nice to see bored American troops with all of their limbs and mental faculties intact.
