Not to mention there should be a MUCH heftier bonus for trained vets who go to work for police departments. The bonus on them around here is LESS than the bonus a newbie out of the academy gets if he speaks spanish. (Not that spanish isn't important but sheesh)
The sadest part of our society and history is the underapreciation and villanization of ex-military. A close second would be the villanization of "rough men" who are capable and willing to do what is needed to keep family, friends, and community safe, but are turned away, and looked down upon because it is not politically correct for them to do so.
God Bless and keep us all. I fear we need that blessing in the comming days more than ever.

Then I commended mirth, because a man hath no better thing under the sun, than to eat, and to drink, and to be merry: for that shall abide with him of his labour the days of his life, which God giveth him under the sun. - Ecclesiastes 8:15 KJV
"The gun has been called the great equalizer, meaning that a small person with a gun is equal to a large person, but it is a great equalizer in another way, too. It insures that the people are the equal of their government whenever that government forgets that it is servant and not master of the governed." - 40th President of the United States Ronald Reagan 1911-2004
