Warrior class is evolving

Also, I don't know of anyone who "fears" such a thing, but the media has to scare everyone with just about everything to sell a story.

Anything to sell newspapers (or TV, or whatever).

I've seen several references recently to this "warrior class". While there are certainly those whose ongoing service would classify them as fully vetted warriors, I can only count myself as a "normal" guy who happened to have the privilege to do some really cool stuff in my 20s. But I'll be damned if I am going to sit back and let these DC gasbags further the divide between the sheep and the sheepdogs.

I spend my days around Soldiers. I haven't been retired as of yet.

That being said there is a significant majority of Soldiers that outright hate our government and civilians in general. The Soldiers have nothing but contempt for the current "Citizens" of our nation.

I do not believe that all "public service" qualifies. For example I don't believe that being a police officer is the same as being a Soldier. In point of fact I believe that you should have "qualified" service BEFORE you are allowed to be a LEO or Firefighter or any political position.

My politics are best described as being to the right of atilla The Hun, but I do believe that there is a growing segment of the population who fear the so-called "Warrior Class". My old Grandaddy would have explained it like this.....Well you see son, it's all about checks and balances.

I fear the rise of the Welfare class!

Too late

Oh, to add on the Welfare Class: my Grandmother was the local "Mail Lady" and spoke for years about how pissed she got that the kids on her mail route would always be standing out at the mailbox on the day the welfare check came.

Amen, brother.
