When we join the Military Service we swear allegiance to the flag and to uphold the Constitution. The Uniform Code of Military Justice is the sword hanging above our heads to deal a swift blow if we deviate from the norm.
A young person is recruited from high school with little knowledge about politics and life in these United States. His educational path is geared toward moving through the system with least impact upon anyone’s career. The sales pitch from the Military will be to serve with honor and to gain educational benefits to be used when your enlistment is up. So we now have a gung ho very young person enlisting based upon a pretty picture complete with flag and fellow serviceman charging through desert on tanks, aircraft dropping bombs on buildings and a cool one at the end of a day. These are young people, 19 to 20 years of age.
Reality strikes you may suffer loss of life limb and certainly happiness. You gave your all for your country and here is what your country is doing for you in California, New Jersey, Mass. Maryland and other similar states. They have taken your constitution from you or a great part of it. Your supreme court now allows developers to take your property by flashing big bucks. You find that your education is going to cost more than an illegal resident person will pay. The government will track your every move if you attempt to buy a firearm.
Here is the question! Do you think especially in those states where you cannot exercise your constitution rights to buy a firearm and to carry a firearm that you should be able to opt out of the Military and walk away with a normal discharge??? Why give your life for politicians who are taking away your rights as a citizen.
Please don’t blast me, I have served over 20 years and never had thoughts like these until time allowed me to see a wide vision of where we are heading.
Thanks.
