mmm mmm mmm. What would Uncle Ted think of this! No. Marxists, Islamists, antiwar pressure groups and their pals in the press created a phony controversy.
There is nothing about the verses on the gun sights for them to compromise principles and back off from.
What an enormous steaming, stinking, festering pile of Bravo Sierra! And how small of the head shed to take such a tone.
“...The coded descriptions are not obvious, appearing in raised lettering immediately following the stock number on the metal casing of the gunsights. The scopes use tritium, a radioactive isotope of hydrogen, to create light and help shooters aim at their target.”
Tritium....a very long lasting light indeed
“...Among the markings on the Advanced Combat Optical Gunsight were JN8:12, an apparent reference to John 8:12: “Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.”...” Perfect words for a perfect sentiment, and could just have easily been words from a sales brochure “Warriors using this sight will be able to see!”
The practice raised alarm because it broke a US military rule that strictly prohibits “proselytizing of any religion, faith or practice” in Iraq and Afghanistan, both Muslim nations.
Yeah, whatever, again, rather a small-of-character tack to take.
The upside? Maybe a bunch of these sights will be dumped into DRMO and from there, the market. Might actually be able to afford one!
cool
mmm mmm mmm. What would Uncle Ted think of this!The fact that the Pentagon is falling all over themselves to denounce the sight’s inscription is truly pathetic. This is a non-issue if ever there was one. The hard left, atheistic, anti-military, gun banners are “offended” and couch their faux concern as worry over inciting jihadis who are caught in Trijicon’s illuminated crosshairs:
...exhale...pause...relax...squeeze...squeeze...squeeze...BAM! Now nobody’s offended. Problem solved.
