I was commenting more on the fighting spirit of the inhabitants; my guess is that the .mil folks in WA and CA would just as soon join the Conservative Union and toss all the liberals into a compound somewhere.
Alot of guys have gone through Ft Lewis, and after their service, decided they liked it so much here, they stayed.
You always hear about the Seattle liberals and whackos.
You don’t hear so much about the retired special forces and Navy guys who live down the block...
But they’re here. And ready to go!
