[Milsurplus] Blood n Guts

[J. Forster]

No, but I DO think that the government MANDATING them is. It should be a
personal choice. Same for an ever growing myriad of other things.

If I like the taste of trans-fat or salt or sugar, it's none of anybodies'
business but mine.

Virtually every government mandate is another assaullt on personal liberty.

As the current debacles prove, the government does NOT 'know best'.

YMWV,
