He is still breathing and causing trouble. He is either a troll or a retread.

Imagine what a know-it-all that always has to have the last word is like to live or work with. Yikes.

Then you need to be consistent - I support the troops in everything they do. Why? Because they are citizen soldiers.

Our freedoms come from the assembled citizens not any abstract organization like the military. In fact in doing what you did - talking about the military as a separate caste you make a grave error that goes against republican (small r like in republican Rome) ideals.

You speak of the military as if it is a caste like was seen in Prussia or some old European power or in Latin America.

Sorry if you were not able to understand that.
