Wow. Perry shoots guns a lot. That sure will make him a great president. Presidents are often involved in gunfights.
It's also bullshit for a veteran to hold his service over the head of someone else (ie - saying the next guy must not love his country). It makes you wonder why he even served in the first place. Was it just for the accolades later? Wrong answer, Perry. Wrong fuckn answer. The only thing more unforgivable for a vet to do is to glorify war.
