You just watched or read The Spook Who Sat By The Door didn't you?

I think those hood types dont practice shooting as much as they should.. I mean, who shoots their guns sideways like that?

People who want to look cool. Why properly hold the gun when you can look like the people on movie posters and in action and crime films.

you guys must lack reading comprehension and missed the point. the military trains our street culture on the proper techniques of stroming a home or business. these guys are working towards perfection everyday.

quest is correct to a point....

Someone on the "tube" media had a special about this. And showed how SOME ex-military people used their training to commit assaults, robbers, etc.

But the laughing part was, as someone had pointed out, they can't shoot and hit anything holding a guy in the "culture" stance (until they get within 8-10 feet).

The sideways gun thing was a joke and I got your point. You're first comment is why I brought up The Spook Who Sat By The Door.

i am correct much more than you think. do you think i knew this because of a report on tv? i still and always will live in the barrio and have grown up on a meaner side. this has been going on for decades now. the military has always provided a shot for the poor, but some have embraced its techniques for their own profit. it is not anything new.

So you're being generous or advocating the overthrough of the US Government, race warfare, anarchy, supporting the criminal element, warning of "things to come", or what?


But, don't get all "attitude" on me. I was just adding some validity to you statement.

They won't have to because you and quest are killin' me w/ before they'll have the chance to try. Clearly, niether of you realizes (or is willing to admit) what someone trained in the use of a carbine and well supplied with ammunition can accomplish when they know the layout of the AO vs. the aggressors don't. Add marksmanship and cover and its "advantage: defender(s)"
