[RugersGR8]

Something to think about when Petraeus is being considered for Hillary's old gig---SOS.

Petraeus just lost my support - My talking point now is he has proven to be a leak for state secrets, he can't be the SOS:

 

[Glocktogo]

He ever had mine, ever. He is unfit to hold any position in the federal government.

He is unfit to hold any position in the federal government.

I would say that most officers in the Army are opposed to privately owned weapons.

 

[RETOKSQUID]

Should have been court marshaled and sent to prison with loss of all benefits IMO.

Time to contact our elected officials and let them know to vote no on/block his appointment.

Why would you say that?

I agree with him. Seems most stateside posts will not allow private arms on the base. Tinker comes to mind, Ft Hood is another. We know what happened there.

The regulation is always unusually strict and the punishment is off the charts for violating anything dealing with a firearms. then individual commanders will attempt to add to the regulation. I had more than one commander that gave me an order (policy letter) to list and register all of the weapons I own regardless of the fact that I did not bring them on post. You are retired from the Marines, correct? was the Marines in favor of young Marines riding motorcycles? If so, the Army is the same way, make it a pain in the ass to ride one because they are viewed as dangerous. The reason the Army does not like soldiers to own guns is because they are viewed as dangerous.
However, I have worked with a lot of very pro Second Amendment guys too.

Yep, I'm a retired Marine. I never heard anybody say I couldn't t ride my dirt bike when I was a young PFC/Lcpl, in fact, we had a motocross track, of sorts,on base even. Nobody really gave a crap what kind of "dangerous" stuff we did as long as we were fit and ready for duty. Of course, that was a long time ago. And I'm not what the Army's deal on motorcycles is.
