[Future Snake Eater]

I am just wondering if there exists in the military today a disdain or hatred for private American citizens and the free exercise of their rights?

Only the illiterate conspiracy nuts.

Thanks, FSE. I think you just answered my question.

If I've got this right, your saying that most military members, especially officers and senior NCO's, view Americans (read taxpayers who pay their salaries) who happen to believe in the Constitution, the Bill of Rights and the free exercise there of as illiterate, conspiracy nuts?

Have a good evening/morning wherever you are, Sir.
