Can't speak for Alberta's Child, however, optimizing the standing army to the point of maintaining technical prowess while shrinking regiments to maintain a domestic defense without the military welfare State in tow along with eradicating the budgetary (And cannon fodder of awful foreign policies) bloat that entices Repub as well as Dem politicians, NeoCons, globalists, and those who desire further the world police meme (Please don't buy the "national interests" canard, that is bad propaganda) going.

As for the rest, exercise the assembly option found in the First Amendment and allow actual militias (Weekend Warriors) that not only scare foreign adversaries, but our "benevolent" government as well.

I suppose I see that sort of thing as a political problem and not actually a problem with our Military. One of my pet peeves has always been Status of Forces Agreements which were actually welfare programs for the host country. Totally political. Martha McSally, a Lt. Col. told she had to wear a burka and pose as the wife of male personnel when off base. and that was in the SOFA. Shameful to condone such anti American practices.

Regarding Weekend Warriors, my house is just a couple of miles from Dobbins Air Reserve Base which houses the Headquarters of the U. S. Air Force Reserve Command, the Georgia Air National Guard, and the Georgia Army National Guard, so in that respect, we've got your Weekend Warriors here in spades.

It's a little known fact that we also have a "Georgia State Defense Force" is an auxiliary unit of the Georgia Department of Defense, serving in support of the national and state constitutions under direction of the Governor and the Adjutant General of Georgia.

This is seperate from the well known Georgia National Guard.

Every time Congressman Henry Waxman (D-CA)gave a speech about banning the .50BMG, he made the point that the round can penetrate armored limousines.

Guilty conscience, I guess.
