I graduated from A&#038;M in 1993 and left the military (for now) in 1999. In the areas of politics and journalism, I have been involved in some campaigns at the grassroots level, interned on Capitol Hill and contributed to several trivial publications in a variety of areas of interest through the years. Unrelated to all of this, I&#8217;m currently working in the software field in the Dallas area.<\/p>\n<p>Very early in the history of Target Centermass, I went on record with my <a href=\"http:\/\/targetcentermass.net\/?p=46\">personal political beliefs<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s a much more recent photo of me, both sixteen years later and sixteen pounds heavier.<\/p>\n<div align=\"center\">\n<a href=\"http:\/\/targetcentermass.net\/images\/Gunner_2006_lg.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/targetcentermass.net\/images\/Gunner_2006_lg.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"291\" alt=\"Gunner 2006\" \/><\/a>\n<\/div>\n<p>Target Centermass is my place for commenting on politics and current events, all with an openly libertarian\/conservative, hawkish tint.
