"How can you be so stupid?" he said during a press conference, shocking everybody present. "Tell me, how is it possible to be so stupid?!"
The press conference was arranged to discuss the three Vitosian soldiers held captive in an enemy country. However, to the surprise of many, Venancias, somebody who started sharing rather egotistical thoughts recently, decided to make the press conference one to insult the brave souls who defend our beloved country and our allies!
"You sign this paper, right, that tells you to kill yourself. You basically sign up to die in wars," he told those present. "I mean wars are great because we can profit off them but who willingly wakes up one day and says 'yeah, I'mma sacrifice myself'."
His laughter angered many. Reporter, Michael Soletta, asked Venancias if he is insinuating that soldiers are stupid.
"Yeah," he replied. "We celebrate the lives these soldiers once lived but we never think about the decision they made that led them six feet under. You made your bed and now you get to lay in it ... literally."
Reporter, Josetta Vera, was passionate with her question.
"Sir, how can you even say something so horrific?" she asked him. "Without these soldiers, where would our country be? Your words dishonour every single person that has risked their life for our country."
Another reporter, Eric Sundin, chimed in as well.
"Our soldiers are worth more than a low life like you!"
