I'm not that interested in the reasons or topics that set off the debate--it appears to be related to some falling out or split among those involved in the militia movement and/or III Percent movement over the qualifications of certain people offering classes. Rather, my interest is in the fact that the professional soldier let his mask drop a bit. Sgt. Barry wrote in his piece:
Professional soldiers are better than you. Professional soldiers are a class. Professional soldiers know these things instinctively even if they won’t say it publicly. You civilians need to learn to mind your place.
Thus demonstrating in just a handful of sentences why the founding fathers of this country did not want a standing army. If Sergeant Barry's attitude is typical among the professional military, then God help us because, with that outlook, they are only one step from acting as a Praetorian Guard.
