I do NOT like Dave. He seems like he's a real <> and into himself. I hate people like that. Who cares if he was in the Army? It doesn't make him superior to anyone else. And trying to get Michelle to have sex with him when she was 15? What a <>! I guess he likes to take advantage of girls. And they broke up because he thought he was a stud and he couldn't get any. WHATEVER!

I haven't seen him hardly at all on the feeds so the only thing I have to base my opinion on so far is the show. From what I saw of him I like but times can change.

David is a TYPICAL Army guy, and I've dated and known more than a few. He is so full of himself and overly confident it makes my stomach turn. He is perhaps the only person in the house I don't care for, and don't think I will.

I love you, BB234. I could not agree with you more. I feel that many military personnel, especially in the Army, feel they are more superior than "civilians" and that they are full of themselves. Dave is a perfect example of that. And pressuring Michelle to have sex when she's 15 and he's 17, and then breaking up with her over it? Can you spell sleaze? I'm relieved to know that I'm not the only one to see through him.

I don't mean this to be negative, but I don't know how to say this is a positive way -- Dave looks a little psycho to me. Seriously. His eyes bug out sometimes and he gets this strange look in them. I'm concerned.

The more I listen to this guy, the less I like him and his freakin' "macho man" attitude. The latest quote about doing dishes is a prime example, along with another not so nice nugget he said earlier today. This guy rubs this feminist in so many wrong ways, it's not even funny!

Having "been there and done that" I feel very strongly that the closest that David has been to a Ranger was possibly when he had his picture taken with some guy dressed up as Smokey the Bear at some National Park. The guy is 21 years old. In order to enlist to TRY to become a Ranger requires a four year commitment. The minimum age these days for enlistment in the Army is 18, so the numbers just don't match. Plus, I don't know any of my fellow (sorry, there are no female Rangers as of yet) REAL former Rangers who keep their helmets and cammo things, especially if you have REALLY "been there and done that." You don't need all of that, ya know? When asked what his brother is doing in Iraq, he gave some flippant answer like, "He's killing people." I think this guy has watched a few too many Rambo movies. I've noticed with some very small amusement just how many "former Rangers" have popped out of the woodwork recently, after "Blackhawk Down" and the publicity given to the Spec Op guys doing their jobs in Afganistan and in Iraq. He couldn't stay down on one knee during the HOH competition over 24 minutes and was the first one to give up? Gimme a break!

A Note on Authenticity

Until the time comes for you to pursue becoming a Ranger, there is no need to posture as "I'm going to be a Ranger", "I was almost a Ranger", etc... You either ARE or you ARE NOT. You either WERE or you WERE NOT. There is no middle ground and if you posture yourself as a Ranger, without having been one in the presence of those who ARE Rangers or Ranger Veterans, you will find yourself in an uncomfortable situation.

You will be branded a "WANNABEE", flogged mercilessly in public view, and most likely have your name, address and other personal information posted to several websites who will be most pleased to expose you. The Ranger Community, you will find, is united in regard to protecting it's reputation by not permitting those who have not achieved the status of 'Ranger' from misrepresenting one's self when one is not.


Rangers Lead The Way!

Yeah, I think these guys might be on to him, or at least sniffing around, Texannie. Well, at least they're giving him the benefit of the doubt (for now)...

This dude is too offensively homophobic for my taste. Very childish comments. I was pulling for him but he's too rascist and sexist for my taste. My gay brother would kick his Royal Ranger azz for some of the rude comments he has made.

I tolerated him until last night, as he played the "Look at me, ain't I goofy?" card....reminded me of Danielle, all phony.

I hope someone nominates him and knocks that quasi-Jim Carrey smirk off his face!

okay, I'm starting to like him a little better, and he is pretty fricken hot. Still, I don't like some of the things that come out of his mouth, like anti-gay comments and when he tells Michelle that he only went out with her to screw her.

He looks and acts like a Jim Carrey wannabe. Ick.

Dave's comments don't rub me the wrong way (nor do Jun's), probably b/c his personality is so upbeat and lighthearted. I don't take his politically incorrect statements seriously - his antics are so entertaining, that's all I focus on when watching him on the feeds (& this is coming from a gay rights activist/feminist *g*)

After I heard his responses to the chair game, my opinion of him went down (mainly because of his sleeping with 2 girls in the same day, sleeping with his girlfriend's best friend and with his best buddy's girlfriend, etc.).

Wow, all I can say is that I can't believe the comments that have been made here about the men in our Army. As a wife of an Army man, I am appalled. I have never met any military personel that think they are 'superior' to a civilian. They are proud of the work they do, as anyone should be.

Can anyone see me rolling my eyes? I like David sometimes, but most of the time I think he's a pompous you know what. I guess everyone has their own opinion, but this thread has shown me that I'm not alone.

It's all about him and the cameras. I wager to say that he had sex with Amanda because it was a big web scoop. I can't staaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand the mother!

Interesting watching last night and seeing him, Amanda and Michelle. I kind of lost my good feeling towards him. He's thinks he's this playa/Tom Cruise kind of guy. I think he's mistaken. He's young though and can afford time to goof just a bit. The decision to have sex in the house was really dubious but there you go. I don't expect it to ruin his future, except maybe if he has any political aspirations but who knows?
