My favorite is that line about the Marine sniper... When asked if he felt anything when engaging a target, he replied "Recoil."

I'm all for it...the stun guns were for those who don't think the security needed much to back them up

Snipers. Because somebody has to break the silence when the negotiation stops.

Why the Discovery Channel? Scratchchin

This is so sad. What's worse is that when things like this happen it plants the idea into someone elses head and you get copycats Sadwalk
Yeah, "its not the person's fault they took them hostage, they saw THIS guy do it!?" No, if they're going to turn to violence, they'll do it... regardless of the method. Its always someone or something else's fault... personal responsibility means nothing anymore.

You'd make a crappy defense lawyer, thank God.
