It's not about deer hunting

Kiev has a history of good shooting women. https://www.nationalww2museum.org/war/articles/lady-death-red-army-lyudmila-pavlichenko

To judge her competency with firearms based on your political philosophy seems foolish, in my opinion.

I'm sure we won't see Putin GAS civilians that will get up and walk around after being pictured dead, like in Syria.

And the media ate it up, just like Juicy with a rope around his scrawny neck. Well, except for Carlson, that liar doubted em right from jump ! (With another of his conspiracy theories)

Of course, it served their narrative.

A few people saw through that ploy before any pictures or leaked documents confirming the hoax.

Yes, doesn't seem like a staged propaganda picture to invoke sympathy at all.

We have no way to know if it's staged.

Why did you make the statement you did about her shooting herself in the leg?

Hey you, pretty girl. You take rifle, we take picture. All westerner fall in love, donate money.

I'm too old not to see patterns anymore. Especially in this online world we live in.

And yes, women in combat are absolutely useless, if not dangerous. It'd be like if men tried out labor and child birth. That's a last resort measure, if that. Rapine in war is bad enough without supplying a battlefield with women.

Okay, it's clear that you and I are going to agree about some things, but disagree about other things.

I'm an incredibly skeptical and cynical person, but I still wouldn't have jumped to the conclusion you did, and even if I did, certainly not for those reasons.

As for women in combat, I am dubious, but probably not for the same reasons you are. Close maybe. I don't know if this is correct or not, but if they lower the physical requirements for women to become combat soldiers, then they reduce combat effectiveness, which limits the military's ability to their job (kill the enemy and destroy things.) If they have to pass the same physical tests as men, I see no reason why they won't make good soldiers. There just won't be too many that are as physically capable of being solders as men though. That's not me being sexist, it's me recognizing the fact that men and women are different. And yeah, childbirth is a perfectly good example of that.

So, does you being against women in combat include extreme situations, like fighting for the very existence of their country? Won't the Ukrainian civilian population need every swinging dick... oh wait, perhaps that was a bad way to express that... every able bodied combatant to fight the Russian invaders? Pretty women can be tough fighters too, not just the ugly ones!
