Wait, what? Full fucking stop. Say what you want about his politics, but Stan McChrystal is no traitor, and it stirs red-hot anger in my chest when I see him referred to as such. I served under his command in both Iraq and Afghanistan, and had interactions with him a time or two since. Stanley McChrystal is not a “traitor” to the country or to our veteran community simply because his politics differ from mine, or yours. Assholes.
I firmly believe that General McChrystal is doing what he thinks is best for America, which is all we should ever expect of any of our fellow citizens. The fact that we all live here in America (ironically enough, protected by citizens and security forces armed with the kinds of guns McChrystal wants banned) gives us the right to disagree with him. And I definitely disagree with him when it comes to guns.
