Hi AG The Pastor is a former servicemember. Most of the people who critized him never served. Since his background involved a stint where the situation was black or white and not grey I understand where the context of the entire talk (not the YOUTUBE version) came from.
I believe most folks want to get their shorts in a bind and this pastor gave them their excuse. That is a reaction that is culture neutral.
On the beach we avoid speaking to the media, hand the job to someone who is experienced (City Media relations officer), or stick to what is going on in the water (just the facts Mamm).
