U.S. Army Reserve Black Hawk pilot Chris Busby, 28, and Stephanie Kenny-Velasquez, 25, went to an Austin courthouse to get their marriage certificate on Dec. 3.
Roughly 48 hours later, Velasquez entered a Houston Immigration and Customs Enforcement office for a routine check-in and never emerged, Busby said. …
…
Velasquez came to the United States in 2021 hoping to start a new life far from the violence and political instability of her native Venezuela. She does not have a criminal record and presented herself to immigration officials in Miami when she arrived in the country.
Imagine locking up my wife and still thinking I’m giving my life for my country. I’m awol til she’s free and then I might not even come back
How would that help her? They would simply lock you up in Leavenworth until they feel you learned a lesson.
These people always have a wild, dramatic sense of courage in hypotheticals, never when it hits them in reality.
See, the current state of the USA.
People live with Hollywood mindset.
Just like some of our top shithead politicians.
More specifically the Weinstein mindset.
“these people” ie americans
Lotta hype
You’re focused on the wrong thing here
I don’t think I am. A soldier is gonna worry more about his loved ones being kidnapped than performing at 100%.
I’m with you on this. However I wouldn’t ever be a soldier, or whatever, to start with but that’s by the by.
I wouldn’t actually go awol though as there’d be too much extra shit to deal with as well as trying to free the wife. I’d just stop.
Stop flying. Stop following orders. Stop everything until the wife is released.
“I’m too stressed, officer McFuckwit.” And “I just can’t concentrate, General Cuntface. My wife has been kidnapped by the government and people that I was honoured to protect and I am worried sick.”
That’s the game I’d play.
And if I ever get her back then I’d quit the whole shebang and fuck off out the country.
If the country is going to treat me and mine with such contempt and hate them, by fuck, I’m going to do the same thing back.
So you’re saying soldiers should have no personal lives …
I would very much prefer my military be composed of soldiers with tethers to reality rather than be purely antisocial loners. If Trump gives an abhorrent order to attack domestically, soldiers like this man will be the ones to stand up and refuse
No I’m saying a soldier shouldn’t have to worry about the govt he works for kidnapping his own wife
They would fall in line as they always have and do as they are told as they always do and then seek our sympathy when they are betrayed as they always are.
You’d think that governments would at least honor their soldiers but time and time again we see soldiers having to organized together and march on the government to get the government to treat them with the bare minimum dignity that the law entitles them.
We’re going through another phase where soldiers are going to have to learn that. They seem to forget it every so often.
Dino-D-Lite.
Are you just stating a hypothetical scenario, or are you misleadingly implying this guy arrested his wife?
Because 1. he’s not law enforcement, and 2.
Hypothetical from husband pov
