Not for the first time in this thread I will respectfully ask you to not make any judgements on my own military career- you do not and will not know where I have been or what I have done so please stop judging my career on some preconceived idea from when you were in the military in the 80's.
70's, 80's & 90's actually but let's not let facts get in the way!
And from all my tours over that period and reading your posts and opinions on this, it's certainly my opinion you never had any real firefighting combat situations otherwise you wouldn't have this PC, lefty, do-gooder attitude that you have, so I think it is relevant to mention your military career as you've mentioned it when it suits in some threads so you can't pick & choose when it doesn't suit, so I treat your opinions on this no different to a man on the street with little or no experience of those full frontal in your face situations because you haven't experienced them first hand, there's nothing wrong with that, but your opinion as an ex-serviceman I find distasteful but excusable to a degree because the odd safe tour doesn't make your opinions valid imo.
