I see it over and over with certain bloggers.
It's like they recognize the State is completely evil, but they give the military a pass because they were once part of it, or have a loved one who was (or is).
Guess what. I have loved ones who have been in the military and have a loved one in the military even now, and I still recognize it for what it is: the blunt instrument of Empire-building evil. It's like the mugger's gun aimed at your face- and the "troops" are the bullets.
The inconsistency is staggering when someone keeps posting pro-military crap while claiming to value Rightful Liberty.
I'm not saying you can't learn from things the military teaches or has done. You can learn something valuable from anyone, but that doesn't mean you should worship them. It also doesn't mean you should shield them from honest criticism.
It also doesn't mean Chris Kyle was anything but a State's mafia hitman. A murderer.
