GREAT QUOTES THAT TRUMP OTHERS:
General Jim Mattis just got his 4th star and is considered to be one of the most famous and revered Marines since Chesty Puller:
Marine General Jim Mattis to Iraqi tribal leaders:
“I come in peace. I didn’t bring artillery. But I’m pleading with you with tears in my eyes: If you fuck with me, I’ll kill you all.”

More quote from Mattis: “Actually, it’s a lot of fun to fight. You know, it’s a hell of a hoot, … It’s fun to shoot some people. I’ll be right upfront with you, I like brawling.”
He also said, “You go into Afghanistan, you got guys who slap women around for five years because they didn’t wear a veil. You know, guys like that ain’t got no manhood left anyway. So it’s a hell of a lot of fun to shoot them.”
Another one I heard tonight on an old movie (1988), Biloxi Blues, where the platoon Sergeant, played by Christoper Walken, said to one of basic trainees, “you need two promotions just to become an asshole.” My Marine DI in 1943 couldn’t have done better, but I am reminded of one classic he nailed me with. Ahhh, but that’s another story.
If you want to tell the story I will set you up with an ADMIN account and you can initiate posts? Just let me know if you would like to do this. It’s rather easy too. After all, if FB can do it…
Good point…
That has to be one of the greatest quotes ever.
