Lefties hate the military, but I've enjoyed the respect I get from people who know better.
You seem focused on the Muzzies. They weren't the only bogeyman us Forces kids learned to worry about. The IRA, the Soviets, the Warsaw Pact, peace protesters, Balkan immigrants, and of course da Muzzies but that was mostly relevant in incidents involving Libya and Iraq. The day 9/11 occurred, fighter jets at the local base scrambled just in case. For someone like me, terrorists weren't something you saw only on TV.
Yes I’m sure you were a right regular Rambo back in your day. I would say I’m more focused on Islam than Muslims per say. You would have noticed that if you like most leftists you didn’t get triggered the moment you hear the word Islam spoken of in a negative light and automatically conflate it with an attack on all Muslim people.
Nah, my dad was the one in the Air Force fixing da planes. I got to live in Germany three times, it was pretty awesome.
I'm no lefty, I'm more in the centre. You won't find many lefties among the Forces communities. They tend to lean more conservative.
