I finished a paper last week about the Guerena shooting, being a Marine myself I’ve been following the story since it happened. Remarkable how leaky the Sheriff’s story is, it would be prime for a 20/20 or something like that investigation.
Swat’s raid on Guerena was also disgustingly amateurish. Keep in mind though, even with poor training, they will still learn when things pick up. However, there are some buildings that just can’t be taken down without HE. Makes me wonder if they’d go that far…
What we need are more cops with real military combat experience and fewer cops just out of high school. Think about it – combat vets are, I believe, as a group, going to be less trigger happy and less jumpy because they know what actual gunfighting is, what to expect, how it starts, how it ends.
The issue I and many of my friends have is not wanting to work for the gov’t again. With the growing power of the federal gov’t i think most of us are content with playing the grayman and staying up on our skills. And with the educational opportunities offered in the GI bill, why would I want to be a cop?

I’ve been busy with a career change, a small child, and another on the way due in January, so I have kind of slacked off a bit in hammering out the conclusion to Prosecutorial Discretion. I’m working on it a bit today, as I have a couple days off now with a somewhat clear schedule. [...]
PROSECUTORIAL DISCRETION, CHAPTER 13 3:20 PM Jason had crossed over the Missouri river some time ago. He knew, by this time, Adam was most likely worrying as Jason was supposed to be at the safehouse by now. But Jason had to be sure he wasn’t being followed, so he couldn’t be too careful. He [...]
I’m working on the next installment of the Prosecutorial Discretion story, but I’m working an overtime week this week, all weekend, and my “off days” are now filled with stuff other than writing. So, please bear with me, more is coming. In the mean time, please digest the lessons imparted. Look around you. Think deeply. [...]
So… thank god cops dont have mk19s?

Oh, to each his own, by all means. But, I’d rather be pulled over by a military veteran than a non-vet.
