Also I know a lot of military officers who are very anti-gun. I think its their training.

I was an officer too. 35e/35d. Formerly enlisted I would say most aren’t anti gun.

I’m sure more and more are anti-gun as time goes on. It’s the kind of officer they want. The more we wait the weaker we get.

That has not been my 25 year experience in the military, in fact it's quite the opposite. I consider Bateman a smart assed dangerous idiot not worthy of the oath he is sworn to. In the rather vast world LTCs past and present of which I belong, he is of the fringe minority in his sentiment towards what the 2nd Amendment guarantees to the citizenry at large, not some ad hoc edict to arm the National Guard.

This guy is at the very least, a statist jackass and probably a leftist loon to boot.

That’s today’s Army for you!

You may be right about officers in the last 20 years or so, which unfortunately means those who are still serving. But my father, a Korean War and Vietnam-era armor officer, is rabidly pro-2nd Amendment, so much that I figure he's to the right of Attila the Hun.

Well now, I take offense to that remark and I know a HUGE number of other officers and former officers that would agree with me. Speaking as a former army Infantry Captain, my training in combat tactics in no way had anything to do with being anti Second Amendment. Our very own Travis McGee is a former SEAL officer. You agree with that statement Matt? How many SEALs do you know that would be willing to kick some tail over such a slander?

Now, it is true that a huge number of GENERAL OFFICERS do feel that way, but they're falling into line with the desires of their masters in the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) to which 90% of them belong, as does the POTUS, everyone in his cabinet down to the fourth level of staff assistants and the veep. But I don't think anybody takes little joey biden seriously.
