6. We've been pushed to the edge... expect more of this.

We've been belittled for decades as peaceniks who wouldn't know the bang bang end of a gun. I think they might be finding out the R's lied to them about that.

I don't agree with what this guy did... not by a long shot (pun unintended). But I DO understand... especially if his personal situation is like mine. You have no idea how much strength of will I've expended not to destroy the Blue Line and trump flag flying proudly across the street from my house. And the idiot flying it IS a veteran. Thing is, so am I. And my veteran haunches are flaring... they're killing my country. I don't think my oath ended when I mustered out.
