Hellfire missiles, B-52s, UACs, etc., right? Not just a rifle with a reflex kicking "designation", but M1A2?
If you compare the cop on the beat with the men on the pointy end of the stick in Afghanistan I can't put much credibility into your statements.
However, I'm not the one drawing the comparison. And no, not much credibility is deserved.
I reject your reality and substitute my own!
