    I'll just say that after reading the story it smells like the direct result of lowering the standards of entrance requirements.

    I don't even care anymore. This country is ****ed. We should just rename everything after drag queens and get it the hell over with already.

    I just want to drop the kids off at Pussy Tourette Elementary then drive over to the Silky Nutmeg Ganache Federal Building to check on my SSI disability checks.

    You know...**** it...Enjoy the decline.

    Gavin also carried an M1 Garand in those combat operations. As a general officer he could've carried anything he wanted, like a 1911, Carbine, maybe even a Grease gun or Thompson with a little more physical exertion. Nope, he wanted an M1 because it would knock a mofo down (not his words of course) and that's what the troops carry.

    I would have no problem at all with a Ft. Gavin. The reason for apparently *having* to do so are what I take issue with. The old "If it ain't broke don't fix it" saying comes to mind. But no, those POS have to change everything they can and ram it down our throats whether we like it or not. I naturally push back against such asinine thinking.

    The military does not have General officers like Gavin because they don't have to be,
    every thing is political and you have to be a political animal, no leadership from the front !
    No penalty when you fail to achieve military victory.

    No penalty when you preside over a disaster.

    ODA 3212 comes to mind. An entire SF team sacrificed, events falsified, families lied to and the worst thing that happens to the two clowns in charge is they had their promotions blocked.
    It's hard to be a ACLU hating, philosophically Libertarian, socially liberal, fiscally conservative, scientifically grounded, agnostic, porn admiring gun owner who believes in self determination.

    Chuck, we miss ya man.

    Has anyone told DA Alvin Bragg that his last name is offensive and needs to be changed.
