i am still curious, have any of you guys served, that is (no fancy words) put your life on the line? or do you just talk a good game?
fyi, i am about sure i have the answer for this one, but i am hoping someone can surprise me.
I spent 20 years in a police uniform. Ran an SRT unit, AND tactical canine. Job description? Protecting folks' life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness from criminals. Managed to save a few lives along the way, and lost some good friends along the way also.
Does that count to you, as serving, or did I not do enough to deserve to have a different opinion than yours?
Oh yea! Can I vote, or do I need to do something else more meaningful like you did, to qualify for that too?
