First, that airman is going to learn (eventually) that when he tries to break up a bar fight or a domestic disturbance…that braid is going to be an excellent target for an idiot to grab and do some damage to the airman.
Excellent point--with today's surveillance capability some sentry removal techniques may no longer work but grabbing the target by the hair and pulling the head back to expose the throat was one reason given for military members having short hair.
This is destructive of the very fabric that underpins the United States Military.
Absolutely--I'm retired military but I still work as a civilian for the Air Force and over the past decade I've seen a shift in the attitude among the force from "service before self" to self before service. It gets more individual centric each time senior leaders appease the whims of an individual or group.

Things sure have changed—when I enlisted in the early 70s and took issue with the Army regulation haircut, to paraphrase my platoon sergeant's retort, “the Army doesn't change to please you, you change to please the Army.” That remained a constant theme through to my eventual retirement from the Air Force in 2000—when it came to regulations it was never about individual.

She wanted more gun control long before this shooting—this bish is merely playing on voter emotions by trying to capitalize on these tragic deaths at the hands of a psychopath.
Yes it should be but Chambers of Commerce in many parts of the country put lots of pressure on the elected GOP politicians in their districts to keep quiet about the cheap labor they want coming in--then the businesses that profit from these uneducated, unskilled workers let us taxpayers pick-up the check for their upkeep once they're here.

How long is it going to take before the average black American figures out that the democRATS have been gradually kicking them to the curb in favor of Biden’s border busters?
