[QUOTE="Shadowrider, post: 2358467, member: 3099"] I'm not certain, but pretty sure that there is a military regulation pertaining to officers expressing their political views publicly. A certain amount of discretion is OK, but this is over the top. It's not that he can't have an opinion, it's that he can't state it in public while "under color of uniform". He actually states that he's ashamed of his country and he writes it under his title. At the very least it's a violation of longstanding military protocol. But as to his oath, yes he's actively promoting the violation of the 2A of the Constitution. If he were under my command he would only be under it for as long as it took to process the paperwork, and that might be a long time. In the interim he'd be posted to the coldest most desolate post I could get him to. [/QUOTE]
