That people are seriously choosing to believe that Obama's intentionally trying to infect the military with Ebola makes me sad. I know we've seen it again and again but this blind hatred towards the president is awful.
I interpreted this as troops shouldn't be helping sick black people, they should be shooting brown people to protect the real Americans (white people). But I think there are layers of racism and ignorance going on here - from Ebola being an African problem and not a global problem, to Obama being more loyal to Africa than the us ( still with the birther crap)....
It makes me sad the disconnect from reality these hateful memes spread.
I hate those guys! I always feel so happy when I see them and nobody at all is honking.
What? That is an actual organization? Smh
lys, the majority of troops are probably going as peacekeepers because with big outbreaks like that shit gets crazy, supplies for medical teams get hijacked by the local mafia terrorist types, etc

lys, how many troops do you feel is appropriate to send to Africa for these purposes? And can you tell us what sort of background you have in military affairs, public health, or management and logistics that qualifies you to make that determination?

I see so troops sent to Africa after extensive training = "zomgs what if they get Ebola too?!" But sending ground troops to shoot at ISIS = "totes cool, I see no way these troops will get fucked up for life or die"?
