I know. These old eyes see a National Defense ribbon. . .but maybe I’m wrong (wouldn’t be the first time). At this time, all get a ND ribbon.

Yeah...could be a photo rendition problem, my eyes, or both. There aren’t many ribbons with a light colored center that I know of, certainly not that he’d be qualified to wear. Still chaps my ass that I just missed Honor Grad. :)

” He only work in the Air Force until the age of 19, he was barely in the Air Force. He does not have any stripes in the photo in front of the Alamo.”

I think you mean “worked”. You’re welcome!

I understand that the good sergeant is black.

Nope.

Thank you Sargent for doing your duty to protect your self.
 
And the public at large - enemies foreign and domestic.

“??? He’s as white as snow in the picture.”

Well, perhaps he identifies as Black.

I’m now a Black Lesbian Muslim woman, simply because I say so. (Not that there’s any wrong with that.) :)

Take that!

Now that’s what I call good gun control. He hit exactly what he was aiming at. Nice shootin’.

I should add, the Klantifa guy who pulled out his concealed carry gun and fired at the car as it was driving away should be arrested and charged with attempted murder.

Still there? Such a paradise experience, starving in the mountains, getting captured and slapped around (bet they don’t do that anymore).

My mistake. Thank you both. I would have praised him either color.

I cannot tell you what the percentage of LTC licensees is in TX, as the numbers are EXPLODING since the New Year & the beginning of this “virus mess”, especially among WOMEN.

Fwiw, I’ve “been checked” exactly ONE time in about 12 years to see if I was properly licensed to carry a pistol. = A Deputy Constable, at the coin-operated laundry, POLITELY asked me IF I had a LTC one night, several months ago. - I said, YES & “displayed the LTC”, as is required by TX law.

He then asked me WHAT I was carrying & when I told him, he said that he had never even seen a ZIGANA K, much less had fired one.
(I then was invited to go shooting with him & his buddies.)

INTERESTING FACT: Here in TX, as we are carefully background investigated & range qualified before being licensed by TX DPS to carry firearms, VERY FEW licensed owners are EVER “ticketed” for traffic offenses by TX LEO. - The law says that IF you are stopped that you MUST display BOTH your DL & your LTC to the police.- Generally, upon seeing the handgun license, the LEO says something like, “OK. Drive safely” & sends you on your way.

Yours, TMN78247
