I had a long conversation with Retired BG Anderson back in 2018 when he was briefly with Sallyport Global in Iraq. One minute he was the new boss and the next minute he was gone and not sure what happened but it was fast. Anyway, he seemed pretty decent for that conversation. I didn’t get a feel for his political leanings during that conversation but I am alarmed by those who zealously want to prosecute peaceful protestors who were most likely encouraged and set set up by the FBI in an entrapment operation.
Brief encounters with people can leave one with a completely misconstrued impression of them. Especially if they are someone with whom you would normally afford immediately respect due to their status. His status being a high ranking military officer. Completely understandable that you saw nothing out of the ordinary with him, for that would have involved some time together to get a more accurate impression of the man. 🙂
