This is the statement he made I am referring to:

Addressing Feinstein directly, Mr. Boston, who served tours in Afghanistan and Iraq, says he'll refuse to register his weapons and writes, "You ma'am have overstepped a line that is not your domain."

"I am not your subject," he continues. "I am the man who keeps you free. I am not your servant. I am the person whom you serve. I am not your peasant."

From a Vet - Thank you Mr. Boston for expressing this so completely, in so few words....{Please excuse the expression "ex-Marine" - for once a Marine, always a Marine}. I was not a Marine, but I believe there are Many Vets that will stand with you on this.

Myself - I fear some of these idiots are underestimating the will of the current law-abiding citizens and the idiots will "push" them over the line..

We have Children and Grand Children to consider and "We Will"

I have written DiFi many times over the years on the topic of gun control. And to date, she has yet to produce one cogent argument on why or how her proposal(s) would or could be effective in her stated goal of reducing gun violence and/or making Americans safer. Not even once.

You're correct on that one! :O)

They need to correct the title. He’s not a “former marine,” he’s a marine who is not currently serving.

Unless he was kicked out or he did something else to show he no longer wants to be a marine: once a marine, always a marine.

Whinestein is just a nasty old woman who wants to stamp her foot and have her way. It doesn’t matter what the facts are or how many of us it affects by taking away our rights. I’ve known old women like her before and they think they have some special powers from heaven.

My comment above is from Rule 5, Alinsky’s Rules for Radicals - Ridicule. The NRA, Republicans, Conservatives, and other concerned groups should start using those rules against the librats - they use them all the time!

Not in all cases.

Murtha, Ritter, Carville, Dellums, Lonetree, Garwood, Oswald, Dennehy, Farrel, McFarlane, Shields, Glenn, etc. are just a few of those who have earned the title ex-Marine.

You need to correct your spelling. Marine is a formal title and needs to be capitalized. The term former Marine is not a term of derision despite what James Amos thinks.
