I agree 100% Team Sergeant! Thank you for saying it out loud. This is something that I noticed years ago, and it bothered me; but most people I mentioned it to either didn't see it or did not understand the ramifications of what they were seeing.
The latest TV "example" of the warrior wannabes can be seen on the show, FLASHPOINT (on ION Television). This trend is very disturbing, especially when one considers the sort of "transformation" that we currently see in the U.S. I wish it would alarm more people because I don't like what I'm seeing. It does not bode well for the constitutional protections that so many have taken for granted.
And thank you, Richard, for the post.
