In the news last week much discussion centered around the recently discovered practice of this fine company incorporating Bible verses within the serial numbers of scopes and night vision products used by the Marines and the Army. Detractors now want to change suppliers of these virtually perfect products and punish the company by taking away the existing contract. Trijicon is far and away the best of all the sight products out there. That is why they have the huge contract with the Military. Their products are without peers. Anything else is a poor substitute that puts our young men, the good guys, at risk and they deserve the very best.
This practice was begun many years ago by Glyn Bindon, the founder of the company. He included these verses because of his devout belief in God. When Glyn died in a plane crash in 2003, the company continued to include the verses as a tribute and an on going memorial to him.
The verses have always been there. Trijicon should just knuckle under now and discard this honor because some misguided cretins disapprove? Never! Please remember that this nation was founded on Christianity and a very strong belief in God. Look how far away we have drifted. Can we ever get back?
Now, some non-believers and a few worthless Liberals (a friend calls them bed wetters and mouth breathers) are offended. These lower life forms crawl out from under rocks when something like this comes along. They make loud noises about how terrible and offensive this is to the heathens. I now ask the time honored question; "Who cares?!!" If they don't like it, they should leave. Go live in Russia, China, or Iran and complain to those leaders.
Hmmm. Did not the Bard (for those politicians in Topeka, Kansas, this means William Shakespeare) write something about "Tis a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing." Yes, and it sure fits here.
Let me point out right now that I am not surprised at the response of the screamers. Likewise, the news media comes in right on cue with their Liberal bias and that too is not surprising.
What tempts me to visit evil upon the pointy headed Congressmen and Senators is their rush to get aboard the apology train while threatening to cut off the funds for this very necessary product that they will be unable to duplicate from anywhere else in the world! And for what? Merely to appease the "bedwetters and mouth breathers"? This is very bad.
But even worse are the Military leaders, the Generals, who join in this nonsense. They know that if this product is taken away from our splendid young fighting men, they, and we, will be rendered less safe. Strong Generals will stand up for the men they send in harm's way. These dishonorable officers should be cashiered out of the service and charged with giving aid and comfort to the enemy!
Do these wimps really care? Oh, yeah, they care, but not enough to prevent them from kissing the hems of the garments worn by the elected officials.
Michael "Mikey" Weinstein of the group, Military Religious Freedom Foundation, is worried. Mikey says, "The Taliban, Al Qaeda, and the Mujahedeen can now say that they are being shot with "Jesus" rifles." Do we care what they can say? If they don't want to be shot by "Jesus" rifles, get off the battlefield and get a real job. Besides, if they are shot, how can they complain?
Because the terrorist culture is 500 years behind the technological development of Christian countries of the free world, we should ignore these ridiculous rants and simply continue shooting until there are no more targets.
I would like to have seen a strong, sharply worded rebuke to this small and insignificant group of vermin along with a suggestion to go pound sand into whatever orifices they may choose. But that response requires courage and commitment; qualities that are in short supply with today's so called leaders.
A neighbor of ours, a full Bird Colonel and presently on duty in Afghanistan, is a strong leader. I asked him if he would be eligible to wear one star or more before his retirement. Sadly, he told me that only those officers who are spineless politicians and butt kissers will be promoted.
Folks, that sounds like a bad thing to me. Where are strong leaders like General Patton and General McArthur when we really need them?
Oh, I just remembered. They are being held back while the politically correct Generals are busy toadying up to the CIC who honors..."Corpse Men".
Disgusting behavior. Shame on them all!
