Yep, the old lady probably needed a little lesson anyway. Exactly! I mean they won't let the poor guy work out is frustrations with his night stick on old ladies anymore, so what else can he do? He really had no choice, it was a desperate situation. He should of shot her with a bean bag like the one Steve McQueen used. Old Steve brought down a 250 + pounder with that little gadget.

If 9/11 had never happened, there is a good possibility this would have happened anyway. Prior to 9/11, passengers considered to be a threat by the crew, were still greeted by the law when getting off the plane. Do your part for global warming: ban beans and hold all popcorn farts.

I wouldn't agree with it, for two reasons:I wouldn't want the enemy feel justified or empowered to do the same to our troops.It violates Geneva Convention III. Where do you get that idea? Fair game? Sounds like fodder for more abuse scandals to me... I can't see our guys taking Ahkmed to MacDonalds for coffee before questioning. humor Do your part for global warming: ban beans and hold all popcorn farts.

It doesn't work??? How can you say that? Torture has been used for centuries to obtain information. If it didn't work, it wouldn't have stood the test of time... I'll be clear: torture is an ineffective interrogation tool because it yields inconsistent, inaccurate data, especially when compared to the methods we employ that conform to laws and treaties. Your logic is highly flawed, and I'd suggest you visit Google and do some searching on this subject to see why. How would you feel about taking a couple of bad guys for a helicopter ride? After you fly around you blindfold both and start asking questions. For starters, you throw one of them out (3' hover). He yells so loud, his friend immediately tells you his life story. This method was used in Vietnam. No physical harm came to the bad guys. If you convince someone you are going to quickly kill them and they believe it, most likely they will talk. No physical torture. Holding some insurgent by the neck and indicating to him "talk or die", but not following through is fair game down at squad level. Then you can pass him up to battalion level.

Ah, the Malayan Emergency, an object lesson in how to deal successfully with a guerrilla insurrection. No kidding. We copied the Brit Malayan extended ambush.

It's also a handle thing. You got to keep up with a ripcord everytime you jump the main unless you end up using the reserve too. Thankfully, I never had to use my reserve when I started out in military surplus rounds. Do your part for global warming: ban beans and hold all popcorn farts.

Maybe it has something to due with our lack intelligence prior to Dec 7, 1941. Vowing never to get caught with our pants down, our government "might have" initiated a policy of starting all future wars on our terms. Do your part for global warming: ban beans and hold all popcorn farts.

Maybe he also got a haircut when he arrived. I know in the mid 70's, if you needed a haircut upon arrival, you got one or you were escorted back on the plane. Nice place, but it is their law. Do your part for global warming: ban beans and hold all popcorn farts.

66% Dixie along that Mason-Dixon Line. Maybe it's time to get my ass out of Dixie. Had relatives fight on both sides and grew up in a military family. They called me yankee-boy in Montgomery and laughed at my southern accent in California. I feel like a hybrid, but I know you can't have it boff ways.

Looks like they performed a tricky maneuver of touching down without power and maybe bumping the starter to keep the props clear, requiring perfect timing. Big difference in expence if the props were not turning because the engines were shut down even if they touched. I am assuming this was a 2 man crew.

Pretty smooth. Hopefully just a little sheet metal work and a couple of antennas. Crew really had it together. Do your part for global warming: ban beans and hold all popcorn farts.

You ok tonight buddy?

This is the first active community service I've done. I was sort of drafted. I had a friend pick me up at the house and then drop me off at the firehouse. It was as if I was expected there. They all knew I had retired so there I was and they signed me up for training. Up until now, work kept me away from home about 7 months out of the year roughly 2 weeks on, 2 weeks off plus hurricanes and training.

Well, that is probably why they do it - to get a rise out of people who think like you. I wouldn't think a Hollywood movie is the greatest source of moral certitude about anything. Probably not, but unfortunately this is the only moral certitude some get these days. Some producers do try to authenicate history. Maybe it's just bits and pieces like raising the flag on Iwo Jima (they used real combat film on that one). Do your part for global warming: ban beans and hold all popcorn farts.

Thanks. We had a good response this morning. Luckily all the deer hunters hadn't left yet. Sometimes it's hard to find people on Saturdays. At 1230 there was another callout for a grass fire, but I was gone. Enough people did show, and we do have backup from the adjoining communities.

Yep, they will live to see Christmas again, and they sure won't forget this one. There were a couple of old rusty bikes leaning against a tree that were spared plus a little storage shed.

I got called out at 0430 this morning for my first house fire. There was little to do except stop the fire from spreading into the woods as it was engulfed by flames when we arrived on the scene. It was an old house made of rich pine boards that burned very fast. Luckily, the one parent was at her job and the one child living at home was not there. One of the guys went to shut off the gas to the house and found that it was locked closed, meaning that it had been shut off by the gas company. It was kind of an eye opener for me. I know there is poverty all around, but it took this fire to really see it up close. The "working poor" are all around if you look. This poor family is on rock bottom just before Christmas, but I live in a community where most will people help to include myself and my wife. It just seems so unfair.

Forgive, if it will ease your mind. Just don't forget, and make him pay with his life.

I was 11. I remember it pretty well--11 year olds aren't stupid, by any means. Still, I'm living here near Daytona, and I have a pretty good view of how bikers have evolved in the past 36 years. How long does reproach last? rl Maybe they have evolved. I still find it a very strange choice to use bikers in the role of peacekeepers. I would also find it strange to use skydivers or rock climbers in that role, and they don't have a skeleton in the closet. Sure are a lot of bikers your age and in your income bracket. Maybe you should shit-can that MG, get a Harley, a fireams permit, and become a peacekeeper for weekends
