Mike Hall stood beneath a blue popup tent as a man wearing a Hardee's uniform walked up and handed him a bag of food and a cold, perspiring bottle of water.
"My boss told me to deliver this to you," the man said. "We appreciate what you are doing."
Hall, a retired Army veteran who lives in Staunton, joined a former FBI agent on Friday as an armed citizen volunteering his time to protect soldiers at an Armed Forces Career Center at 823 Richmond Ave. He said someone had donated the tent for the men to have shelter while guarding the recruitment center. |

Note to readers.
See story on Pentagon requesting that people not guard the recruiting stations.
I can hardly wait for them to try and enforce that.
To our people in uniform. We will back you 100%. |

TO REMEMBER |
| For, in principle, there is no difference between a law prohibiting the wearing of concealed arms, and a law forbidding the wearing such as are exposed; and if the former be unconstitutional, the latter must be so likewise. But it should not be forgotten, that it is not only a part of the right that is secured by the constitution; it is the right entire and complete, as it existed at the adoption of the constitution; and if any portion of that right be impaired, immaterial how small the part may be, and immaterial the order of time at which it be done, it is equally forbidden by the constitution. [Bliss vs. Commonwealth, 12 Ky. (2 Litt.) 90, at 92, and 93, 13 Am. Dec. 251 (1822) |
