You are preaching to the choir girlfriend! I could not agree with you more, but as a man who has taken orders most of my life, the current situation in this Country and its elected leadership is a hard pill to swallow.

Though I am still affiliated with the military, I have been arrested at a number of protests in the past two years. The Democratic National Convention and also a non-partisan protest at our Nation's capitol. Also attended the woman's march and wore an homemade pussy hat (I crocheted it myself).

I did not speak for the military, but did speak as a former combat Veteran that is disappointed in the direction our leadership has taken. I am a bit left of center. I am an Independent Voter and a member of neither political party. Hell, I voted for Jill Stein. Her running mate during the 2016 Campaign is a Vietnam Veteran; not my reason for voting for her, but she was my candidate as I liked what she promoted: Peace and care of the earth.

I do not share this with you to brag, by no means, but so that you may understand me a little better as well as my political ideology.

Best to you and your loved ones always sweetheart.
