An idiot holding a big, badass stick (with lots of spikes and other pointy bits) is still an idiot. Especially when that idiot jumps to the beck and call of groups with questionable integrity.*

Great video, nonetheless. My buddy just sent me a video of him at basic-those grenade launchers are seriously cool.


*in case some here don't get the metaphor, I mean absolutely no disrespect to those who've served and are serving.

It`s not our armies I`m worried about dooming our country, it`s our politicians.

For those who think this thread was doomed to become political from the start, well...it probably will.

My bad, I'll elaborate.

Our military is a foreign policy tool. If we have irresponsible people in charge of our foreign policy, we're screwed.

Ha, I didn`t mean to open the flood gates, but in all honesty I don`t think anyone questions America`s superior military or thinks we were "doomed" because of it. I think most people who say we are doomed is because of our political arenas.

They have my respect and gratitude.

You just have to hope they won't be given a court-martial for slapping some enemy puke while we provide the enemy lawyers and give them Miranda rights.
