In the spotlight: Army of Dad

Sworn Enemy did the interview meme and Army of Dad volunteered to answer five questions. So, here they are.

1. If you could have only one firearm what would it be and why?
Oh God, only one!? I suppose my Grandpa's old shotgun since it also has a slug barrel I would be able use it in more situations.

2. What do you see as the most imminent terrorist threat to America today?
I go back and forth on this one all the time. Either an attack on a commercial airliner with a shoulder fired missile or an attack by gunmen on large groups of people (malls, fairs, sporting events). They key in the second scenario is that the gunmen attack, wreak mayhem and then flee. If two Islamic pricks could make an entire metro area cower in fear (Malvo, Muhammad, death cocktails, party of two) just imagine what a medium sized group could do.

3. Have you always been Conservative, or was there a gradual change? Or was there a "changing moment", if so, what was it?
I have pretty much always been a conservative, though I might not have identified myself that way. At any rate, I don't recall a defining moment.

4. You were in the Army; what, if anything, would you change about today's Army?
Pay and training. The attitude about training support soldiers for combat was really poor when I was in. They concentrated more on PT and less on shooting, or tactics. I hope the Army learned the right lessons from the 507th Maint. CO. disaster.

5. If you had to live in a country other than the U.S.,where would it be and why?
There really isn't any place else I could stomach living. I suppose if I had to move it would be to Australia. Seem to be good folks. Maybe we can get rid of some of the pussy-ass laws if enough Americans emigrated. They have the best chance of remaining a freedom loving people outside of the US.
