President Barack Obama has offended the bayonet community … TMZ has learned.

TMZ spoke with multiple people in the bayonet industry who tell us they were shocked and even offended when Obama brought up the weapon during last night’s debate.

FYI — Obama was going after Romney when he said, “You mentioned the Navy, for example, and that we have fewer ships than we did in 1916. Well, Governor, we also have fewer horses and bayonets, because the nature of our military’s changed.”

    But he’s right…he didn’t say that they don’t exist, he just said they are fewer…..they’re just trying to publiscize themselves, ride on whatever coat tail they can find

    My husband did basic training for the army a couple of years ago and they eliminated bayonet training at several bases. Mr. President did not misspeak. There are fewer bayonets because not every branch of military is using them to train anymore.
