If this is indeed the case then he deserves what he gets.

No, you are not required to follow unlawful orders. You cannot be held responsible for refusing to murder a civilian. You can, and will, be charged with murder if you do follow that order, and the superior giving said order would also be charged. If will say this: you'd better be right about it being an unlawful order if you refuse to follow it otherwise you are going to jail.

Hummm... I, (NAME), do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; and that I will obey the orders of the President of the United States and the orders of the officers appointed over me, according to regulations and the Uniform Code of Military Justice. So help me God.

Without seeing the comments that he made: I would certainly hope that all military personnel would publicly take the position that they would not follow an unlawful order from anyone of superior rank. They are expected not to follow such orders and are held liable if they do. On the surface this sounds like politics injecting themselves into the military - which is supposed to be apolitical.

And this is why Oblamo will get a second term.

Of course not; that would not provoke the masses.

Because it's a 44 Magnum!

When you're told to break off you break off. It's plain and simple.

Speaking of Hush Puppies: Does anyone have a kick'n recipe for them?

Well, I was born and raised in Kansas City, and I see nothing wrong with Hush Puppies with BBQ. In fact it sounds pretty darned good! I'm smoking a brisket this weekend so I'll have to try that!

Unfortunately, there is no test that one must pass in order to start a business - just as there isn't one for parenting. It could be that dude is disorganized and having a bad day. It doesn't forgive his email rant, but can explain it. What there is no excuse for is threatening a resocking fee for something that isn't in stock. What my guess is: the guy gets charged by the credit card company to run a purchase for something he doesn't have, and since he thinks he doesn't have it he wants to recoup his time and money. It's certainly a poor business practice.

I have the same problem. I used a red dot, but it was not accurate enough for me because of the size of the dot increases in ralation to the target with greater distance. It's great for things up to about 150 yards or so, but not so much when things are further. For my Sig 556 DMR I bought some quick-release scope mounts from Larue and put a SWFA 10x on it. Mount & scope was about $400.

Like they say, "Vote your conscience in the primary and your party in the general election," even if you have to hold your nose to do it. If you don't then don't complain about another 4 years of Obama.

I didn't know that our youth was convinced that smoking is bad!!?? When did that happen?

Personally, I think that you are out of line here. Robert said nothing about race in his comment. If one pays attention to the news they'd find that 17 year olds do murder.

I just love how the site that I read about it doesn't allow you to make comments on the story.

I will laugh hard if the Broncos do not make it to the play-offs next year. I wasn't too excited about him playing, but I think that he'll make an excellent coach.

Weapons aren't allowed at my work.

Hey!!

Not that I believe that innocent people should be intentionally targeted, but it irks me when people think war can be civilized. War will never be civilized, and until this nation recognizes that fact we won't win ANY modern war.

No, taking what he said here. When one makes an absolute statement like that then there' only one way to interpret it.

By that standard you'd want to kill every bomber pilot that's still alive from WWII, Korea, and Vietnam. Also a few from the gulf wars. Then there's artillerymen. I guess you'd be skinning and burining lts of people yourself.

I can and will when someone shows me a documented case where a LEO came up to someone without probable cause, snatched the phone out of their hand, and searched the contents of said phone. Until then, no!
