Max: WHAT! THE! FUCK?!?
Via MSNBC/Newsweek
The colonel was furious. "Can you believe it? They actually drew their weapons on U.S. soldiers." He was describing a 2006 car accident, in which an SUV full of Blackwater operatives had crashed into a U.S. Army Humvee on a street in Baghdad's Green Zone. The colonel, who was involved in a follow-up investigation and spoke on the condition he not be named, said the Blackwater guards disarmed the U.S. Army soldiers and made them lie on the ground at gunpoint until they could disentangle the SUV.
Why are the fuckers who pulled guns on and disarmed our soldiers in a wars zone not dead?

Hitler had the SS. Hussein had the Republican Guard. Bush has Blackwater.
Why would a good soldier want to throw away his career and possibly face criminal charges for blowing the hell out of an untouchable member of the President's personal army?
If a civilian told a Marine guard that they would not comply with his orders, he would have found himself arrested if not dead. The fact that a Blackwater employee can get away with that signifies that there is something else going on there.
At least it is not a sign of decline.
You finally point out a sign of decline and then you get snarky!
Should I not agree with you when you're right?

1) I'm always right
