Every time I hear about the left talking about the rights of those that would do us harm. I think of the movie a few good men and what Jessup said on the stand

Son, we live in a world that has walls and those walls need to be guarded by men with guns. Who's gonna do it? You? You, Lieutenant Weinberg? I have a greater responsibility than you can possibly fathom. You weep for Santiago and curse the Marines; you have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know: that Santiago's death, while tragic, probably saved lives and that my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, saves lives. You don't want the truth because deep down in places you don't talk about at parties you want me on that wall, you need me on that wall. We use words like honor, code, loyalty. We use then as the backbone of a life trying to defend something. You use them as a punchline. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very freedom I provide and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather you just said "thank you," and went on your way. Otherwise, I suggest that you pick up a weapon and stand a post. Either way, I don't give a damn what you think you are entitled to.

We now have left wing idiots just like this one now in charge of our national security. Obama is planning on releasing KNOWN TERRORISTS on to American soil. He is doing everything he can to destroy the CIA. He is kissing ass all over the world showing what a *ussy he is.

Obama wants to remove the men with guns from the walls with the hope that the world will now love us for being freaking wimps.
