#1 The comments are quite amusing and would give the mods here lots of work taking out the bad language, advice that the author should suck start a firearm, etc.

I'm in the oilfield and man, even compared to us Marines talk dirty.

#2 I think the author is living proof that there is such a thing as an Ex-Marine.

#3 Got to remember Benedict Arnold was key to the American victory over the British at Saratoga before later changing sides.

#4 Yeah, the secure gun laws I'd like to see are mandatory open carry with visible brassards for the wusses (a la Heinlein).

#6 However, responsible gun owners should want to make it more difficult, not easier, for criminals and terrorists to obtain these weapons.

Indeed that is why so many are pounding their desks demanding accountability for Fast and Furious - the no background check weapons drop for criminals - and 2Fast2Furious probable Benghazi hub transfer of weapons to terrorists.

Its like the 1st Amendment Mr. Hess, as is so well exemplified by this op/ed one does not necessarily have to be a proficient writer in order to exercise that right. Indeed, I am sure many people took their wordsmithing as seriously as you took weapons training. See, this op/ed is straight formula - who I am, why my background is not gun grabber, what restrictions should be added, you must agree with me because why.

And unfortunately, I am not shocked at the source, nor the continued inability to get Columbia chicks to notice him.

Yeah, some comments make our firehouse talk seem like humble friars whispering favorite bread recipes. Cracks me up.
