Can you give specific reasons you changed your mind? I'm always curious what flipped people's opinions so I can do the same in the future

He never once made it his mission to convert me. He spoke about how badly they were kept in the dark while deployed in Iraq. He came back to the US not trusting his Government. It hit me why they marginalize war heroes when they get back home. They don't want them organizing into a tax payer funded, well trained group of loyal Americans who have seen the the ugly truth. Then it hit me, "Thank GOD they have access to guns". "This is the only defence between them and evil that lurks in DC. It's not by accident the Vets are treated so badly. It's to demoralize them. Once a true Patriot Military leader sounds the alarm, the American tax payers have all the assets they paid for, ready to protect them.

They don't. We've been taught to share our Country, now we've been fooled into giving it away.
