How do people like hall not get marched to every suspected IED until nature takes its course, or just sent the gently caress back home roped up like a salami with a paper tag requesting he be physically removed from whatever facility he lands at.

As hilarious as this is to know about her, and as much as I hate Dick Cheney, I'm not going to begrudge anyone on figuring out a way to get out of going to Vietnam, even if it is a bit classist. If I were facing down being drafted I'd fight tooth and nail not to get gang pressed into service.
It's the hypocrisy, not the draft-dodging. Keep up.

I never imagined how much of our government was founded on the principle that we have an adult incharge capable of discretion
It's based on the premise that congress would impeach such a person, which they won't do because senate is locked because state are gerrymandered to gently caress because courts are packed. There.

I love this gun but what the gently caress is an autorevolver. I thought modern revolvers cocked themselves after firing anyway
Typical revolver triggers are long and heavy unless you can cock the hammer first. That's because the trigger pull itself needs to rotate the cylinder, cock the hammer then release it.
On autos some of the energy of one shot is used to feed/cock the firearm for the next.

Racism or not there's enough first hand accounts of batshit accomplishments to secure their reputation forever.

A friend of my parents was an admin type in Kabul for a year and he vastly preferred the gurkha PSD contractors to the former SAS/SBS ones. He said the gurkhas wanted you to get on with your poo poo, the brits just wanted to kill people. They were also much more pleasant to have around at home.

a lightweight m4-style rifle with a good 16/20” barrel and medium optic/LPVO is already astonishingly effective, i’d be really curious to see what they deem a worthwhile improvement.

With a moderate brake it’s got negligible recoil, it’s accurate to over half a click, weighs loving nothing and neither does the ammo, and if you’re feeding it m995 or dm31 you’ll zip through most body armor too.

My parents for the past decade have been posted around europe due to their work with the UN (germany, usa, italy, switzerland etc). Unfortunately they never really had good memories due to them not being white. They both speak fluent french, italian and English, so they often end up hearing things they would rather have not heard from their neighbors of passerbys. In Geneva my mother was constantly mistaken for domestic help, and in italy my father keeps getting harassed by cops. They love all the places they visit and live in, it's just there is an extra barrier and hurdle they have to pass before they can do so.
I grew up in that region and the only fights i've ever gotten into were with assholes taking the piss out of our one black friend. It's p bad.

Our old group commander got profiled in some local women’s magazine. She’s been retired for about 5 years at least. The cover of the magazine has a picture of her in her blues out in front of the static display at our entrance. Her hair is overly permed, the hat was so far back on her head you almost can’t see it, and her ribbon rack is upside down.
I'd have that poo poo printed 3x in my office.
