Shot placement is king. Unless you hit the CNS and the target falls limp like a marionette with the strings cut, it's a good idea to administer at least a 500 grain "dosage" of projectiles (i.e. 8 rounds of 62 gr 5.56 duty ammo) to ensure a physiological stop.

LMAO...if you are here Leon, you are probably in the know, but just in case you are not, there is a channel called 'Active Self Protection'. The host shows different self defense situations, most involving handguns. These are recent, real world shootings. Some of it is US, some from Brazil... He shows the full clip, then goes back over it in a logical manner, giving his opinion of the actions, situation, and lessons learned. There was one video where a woman and mother places 3 40 S&W on center mass, at maybe one meter, it was close. ASP slowed the video, and you can see the bad guy get off 2 shots, but missing as he takes 3. He falls, she seeks 'concealment' next to a vehicle, but that guy did not die and he could have still been in the fight.

People need to make a very clear distinction between military forces and politicians. The military sign up to defend their country, go where they are sent, and execute orders. They don't choose where they go or what conflicts they get involved in - politicians do that. So, if you don't like the way that one country meddles in the affairs of another, blame the politicians who made the calculated decision to go meddling. Blaming the military is the equivalent of shooting the messenger.

Special operations types get what I've heard called "stress inoculation" in their selection and training. They put these guys through a controlled hell so that when they're in actual hell, they can still function. SEALs and Hell Week is one example. Ranger School is another. I've heard a LOT of stories about guys in Ranger School hallucinating because they're denied sleep and calories for long periods of time. A friend of mine showed me a picture of himself just after he'd passed and became a Ranger. Dude looked like hammered shit. He honestly almost looked like a Holocaust survivor because he'd lost so much weight and been through so much stress.

Navy SEALs are some of the best guys that I have met. I trained every single day for almost 2 years for BUDs with a retired Navy SEAL and on-and-off with a Navy SEAL who was on active duty. I always was involved in contact sports when I was a kid: street and ice hockey, football, and wrestling. After college, I found my calling in the armed forces. Unfortunately, I was unable to go through BUDs because the requirements changed several months prior to me leaving. I had a felony charge, on my record, that prevented me from joining. Despite not being convicted and having that charge dropped, it was not enough. The two Navy SEALs worked really hard for me to go. They knew that I wanted it. They saw something in me that they did not see in the other men who were in our group. It was very emotional. I, often, wonder about what could have been. I consider myself fortunate to have been able to train with two of the greatest men that I have ever known. They taught me valuable lessons that I carry to this day.

@@scallen3841 Not just Americans. I'm a British veteran and we, too, were targeted by suicide bombers in Afghanistan. They were pretty much always either vulnerable kids (often orphans with nobody else to turn to, who had been groomed by the Taliban, trusted them, and were then strapped into vests they couldn't take off and had no control over as they were remotely detonated), or adults who were terminally ill (the Taliban would get them high "so they didn't feel it" when they detonated the vest & give their family money, so many felt it was the only way they could leave their family with any security). I know far too many people with PTSD from having to make decisions about shooting innocent kids in order to save marketplaces full of families. The Taliban are beyond evil and the US should be deeply ashamed that they chose to negotiate with them and hand back power to them. They denigrated the memories of everyone who lost their lives trying to make Afghanistan better. Yes, withdrawal was needed, but it could have been handled so much better.

I appreciate your sentiment however, no anything is not possible. This message to children is part of how we ended up in this mess. Telling kids they can be/do anything they want to be is a lie that creates narcissistic brats that think they are special when they aren’t. I am 5-7 and have been overweight my whole life. If my parents told me I could be in the NBA that would be a lie and would have set me up for disappointment and failure. Mike Rowe has a fantastic Prager U video on this called “never follow your passion”.

No one thinks a 70-year-old man can become an astronaut. That's just silly. Word of advice. Never use PragerU as a legitimate source. It's just an ultraconservative propaganda machine that makes regular conservatives look bad. Have you ever tried overcoming being overweight and becoming fit?

An assassin wouldn´t stand a chance against these dudes in a war setting. But while they´re on a barbeque having a booze they´re the ones with trouble on their hands. Context matters, assassins and SEALs are both effective killers but none are invincible. Deceptive tactics works against anyone who is relaxed enough not to notice what´s going on. But as soon as the SEAL realizes the danger the initiative switches, a skilled assassin would never let him see it coming though.

@Steven Bruno From what I learned, and did research on (because I was going to go into the Air Force to become a PJ), BUDs is very similar to how the Air Force trains their Spec Ops units as well. I almost guarantee that the Air Force Spec Ops (especially PJs) had to have inspiration in what they did to prep their guys (no women have made it all the way through training for Parascue, it's very tough training) with some tips from the Navy SEALS training because it is very similar in what they do. As someone who has an uncle who was PJ for 11 years before he retired from active duty and opened his own PI business in upstate New York, I saw from a distance what it took and how hard it was for him. Especially when he would tell me certain things about missions. He is a certified badass.
