We want to ban guns, except for military and police of course.  But who are these military and police? What makes them so special?  And no, I mean no disrespect to military and police, I have been both. They deserve our support and I don't mean platitudes.  Back to the subject; Supposedly, anti-gun folks exempt military and police, good guys/gals with guns, because they've been vetted, trained, and they've taken an oath.  OK.  What about the hundreds of thousands of former LEO's and former military?  They've been vetted, trained, and taken oaths.  Are they saying that a soldier that's been vetted, trained and taken an oath and served two combat tours in the middle east and comes home can no longer be trusted with the right to bear arms?  How can that be?  Would a civilian that's had training be OK? Or do they have to take an oath too?  They've said the Pledge of Allegiance, does that count? Is it the vetting? Legal purchasers are vetted by the FBI. Does that count? What does it take?
