I remember in the infantry we were trained to assist in shooting down enemy aircraft, even went to the range on FBNC to train on shooting them down. Lots of fun.

Then I joined Special Forces and my combat mindset was forever changed. The emphasis was not on shooting down enemy aircraft but neutralizing the pilots before they got airborne............

And as far as the average federal, state and local LEO goes, I remember the recent situation where "one" California police officer went nuts and went on a killing spree and how law enforcement responded, shooting at anything and anyone that even remotely looks like this guy.

If the Mine Resistant Vehicles (Woobies) give federal, state and local law enforcement a warm and fuzzy so be it. A false sense of security is just that.......
