Rock Diaz, American Airlines Passenger, Impersonates Soldier to Get into First Class

The 4 people that commented on my post know nothing about me. I think it is pathetic that people want to judge someone by their occupation. I have more class in my finger than these 4 will ever have in their pathetic lives. Your comments show what a bunch of clowns you really are. I choose not to hate on someone or wish him death like so many of you idiots on here are doing because he made a mistake in judgement.

GREG, DID YOU NOTICE THAT BUSH DID THE EXACT OPPOSITE OF BUSH SR. IRAQ INVADED KUWAIT
TO STEAL OIL, AND GENERALLY GIVE HIS TROOPS A GOOD TIME RAPING, LOOTING, AND PLUNDERING.
THEN JUNIOR DECIDES WITH THE HELP OF CHEYNEY, AND OUR MILITARY INDUSTRIALIST LOBBYISTS
THAT WE ARE WINNING IN AFGHANISTAN TOO FAST. WHAT TO DO ? CLAIM THAT IRAQ HAS WEAPONS
OF MASS DESTRUCTION, GIVE A NO BID CONTRACT TO SUPPLY EVERYTHING TO CHENEY`S
HALIBURTON, AND AWAY WE GO ! IN THE FIRST TWO WEEKS THE GAO DISCOVERED THAT THEY
HAD STOLEN 2 MILLION, AND NO SUPPLIES WERE BEING DELIVERED. THEY DIDN`T WANT OIL
THEY WANTED MONEY ! WHILE PEOPLE ARE WORRYING ABOUT SPELLING, AND PUNCTUATION ON
HERE THEY LET OUR HIGHEST ELECTED OFFICIALS COMMIT TREASON. I WAS TALKING TO A WW2
VET AT THE VA HOSPITAL A COUPLE OF MONTHS AGO, AND HE SAID BOTH BUSH, AND CHEYNEY
SHOULD BE HANGED BY THE NECK UNTIL DEAD. I AGREE.

IN 1971, WHILE SERVING ON THE USS SPRINGFIELD CLG-7, FLAGSHIP OF THE SIXTH FLEET,
HOMEPORT GAETA, ITALY BETWEEN ROME, AND NAPLES, THEY SOUNDED A GENERAL EMERGENCY
RECALL OF ALL CREW MEMBERS STILL ASHORE. IT SOUNDED LIKE IT COULD BE HEARD IN
SWITZERLAND. THE CAPTAIN CAME ON THE SHIP`S LOUDSPEAKER INFORMING US THAT HE
WOULD EXPLAIN ONCE WE WERE IN INTERNATIONAL WATERS. AS WE RACED THROUGH THE
STRAITS OF MESSINA, I WAS WONDERING WHY THE REST OF THE FLEET, HOMEPORTED IN
NAPLES WAS NOT WITH US. ONCE WE WERE IN INTERNATIONAL WATERS THE CAPTAIN
EXPLAINED THAT ONE OF OUR DESTROYERS HAD BEEN STRAFED BY RUSSIAN MIGS OFF THE
COAST OF ISRAEL. TWO DEAD, MANY INJURED, BUT IT TURNED OUT THAT THE STAR ON THE
WINGS WAS NOT THE RUSSIAN FIVE POINTED, BUT THE ISRAELI`S SIX. JOHN WALKER WAS
NOT ARRESTED UNTIL HIS WIFE CALLED THE FBI, AND TURNED HIM IN BECAUSE HE HAD
THEIR SON DOING THE SAME THING FOR THE RUSSIANS AS HE HAD YEARS BEFORE. I CAN
REMEMBER WHEN THE NCIS, AND FBI TOOK HIM OFF THE CARRIER ABRAHAM LINCOLN. BEFORE
HIS SHIPMATES HEARD, AND HE WOULD HAVE LITERALLY SWAM WITH THE FISHES. IT TURNED
OUT THAT THE FBI LET THE SON LIVE, IF JOHN WALKER TOLD THEM EVERYTHING HE HAD
TURNED OVER TO THE RUSSIANS WITH HIS LITTLE MINOX CAMERA, AND THE JAMES BOND
DEAD DROPS. RUSSIA CALLED HIM THEIR BEST SPY EVER, AND NOW HE SITS IN COLORADO`S
MAXIMUM SECURITY FEDERAL LOCKUP WITH NO ONE TO TALK TO, AND HIS ONE HOUR A DAY
TO EXERCISE, BUT MOSTLY TO THINK, WHICH WHEN YOU THINK ABOUT IT, COULD DRIVE EVEN
THE BEST SPY OVER THE EDGE.

I`M SORRY TO ALL YOU ENGLISH TEACHERS OUT THERE, WHEN I WROTE THAT THE TERRORISTS
NEXT PLAN WAS TO COPY WHAT THEY DID IN INDIA, SHOOT UP SOME HOTELS, AND KILL AS MANY
PEOPLE AS THEY CAN BEFORE THEIR #$%^*&! THEY ARE KILLED. WHAT DID HAPPEN IN KABUL
THE NIGHT BEFORE ?

THIS GUY SHOULD SPEND ABOUT 10 YEARS HARD TIME. USE HIM AS AN EXAMPLE, AND THE NEXT
PERSON CAUGHT GETS LIFE. WE ARE AT WAR, AND THE TERRORISTS NEXT PLAN IS TO COPY WHAT
THEY DID IN INDIA, SHOOT UP SOME HOTELS, AND KILL AS MANY PEOPLE AS THEY CAN BEFORE
THEIR KILLED. SEND THEM TO COLORADO`S MAXIMUM SECURITY FOR LIFE, AND LET THEM TALKTO JOHN WALKER, RUSSIA`S FAVORITE ALL AMERICAN SPY. OH, I`M SORRY HE`S NOT ALLOWED TO
TALK. YEP THANKS TO THE FBI, AND MILITARY INTELLIGENCE THE ISRAELIES HAD TO TAKE

MATTERS INTO THEIR OWN HANDS WHEN MOSSAD FOUND OUT THAT EVERY BIT OF INTELLIGENCE
SENT TO WASHINGTON D.C. WOUND UP IN MOSCOW THE NEXT DAY. DID WE SEARCH HIGH, AND

LOW FOR THE SPY ? WELL IN 1968 THEY ATTACKED AND SUNK THE USS LIBERTY, A SPY SHIP.
REMIND YOU OF THE FBI AGENT IN ARIZONA WHO REPORTED THE TERRORIST WHO DIDN`T WANT
TO LEARN HOW TO LAND PLANES ? MAKES YOU WONDER.

I agree with most of you. Since all servicemen must carry their official
Military ID with them at all times, it should be no problem for a serviceman/
servicewoman to produce their ID when requested. Our military people should
not lose perks over such a simple thing. This should never have become a
problem to begin with.

here's a thought people. when the soldiers get more on the same airplane civilians get less. frankly i discourage people from joining the military as these days soldiers are governmental puppets more than freedom fighters. I won't say there is never a need to defend ourselves from other governments or devalue the courage of the soldiers though i believe it misguided. However to say impersonation of military in a civilian venue should be punishable by hanging or military jail is a mockery to the constitution of America which btw the government who manipulates those soldiers and in fact us civilians as well has shot to hell and back. I REALLY HATE to sound like a 9/11 conspiracy theorist but the more i look it up the more it looks like something is hidden there too. I genuinely wonder if there is a real reason for us to be fighting either of those wars. I won't claim this guy isn't a deceptive piece of scum since it certainly appears he is. However i fail to see why soldiers should get special treatment when anyone who can't fit well into a tiny seat is required to buy another ticket or cancel their flight with no refund. I'm aware they risk their lives when dispatched but i sure hope they don't think they are fighting for me. I'm sure you all think i'm horribly unpatriotic now. Frankly i should inform you that if we are ever invaded without a hell of a good reason ill be the guy fighting brick, tooth, and nail against the invaders even after mortally wounded. Frankly i would probably have to , or give up since they have such strong gun legislation. I would say however i am impressed by senior soldier giving up their upgrade for a lower rank. I salute you bshpfoster and spikeritz. Maybe i'm not enlisted but at the very least I still consider myself a modern day millitiaman

I saw some b@stard at a bar wearing a silver star with a V on it. That told me he was a phony right of the bat. I asked him a few questions and of course he was clueless. I "suggested" he remove that silver star and leave. He did. If you want the prestige of being a servicman, then go serve.

Being a retired Marine, I say, fly him out here to Seattle. I will gladly pick him up at the airport and show him what being a Marine is truly all about. I mean, a little extracirricular instruction never hurt anybody, right...?

I would just like to say that most of you are horrible people. Worse than this guy. He does not deserve to be punished, he does not deserve jail time, he does not deserve any hate. All he did was wear a uniform, and someone felt the need to reward him because they thought he was a soldier. It's not that I don't like soldiers, I just think of them as people who happened to choose that as a career, I don't put hold them any higher than anyone else and to think that it is a crime for him to impersonate a soldier is ridiculous.
