I think the point was that if we got the kids thinking of a gun something AS90 kind of size, they might start valling thier Individual Weapons...well...Individual Weapons 
And not all the instructors were turds...I was one of 'em!

It is taking part in the war where he lost his buddies. Honestly!DerAdlerIstGelandet said:
plan_D said:I know of a Paladin which blew up because the shell got caught in the chamber. Maybe that's what he's talking about.
That one incident can't be a solid foundation for building up the image of the Paladin being a waste of money.
I agree. I just dont quite understand his argument. If he is implying that the Paladin is used by the Iraqis then he needs to get his facts straight. I just want to know what he is talking about.

Yes but that is quite irrelevent. The war is killing his buddies not him. We lost helicopters down there and the helicopter did not kill them and I dont think the Blackawk is a waste of money.
Maybe. Thats the only thing I can think.

DerAdlerWatEver! Are you a complete idiot?
I said I am very well aware what military force uses the Paladin.
I was NOT suggesting the Paladin was not worthy weapon.
I WAS expressing my extreme displeasure in the current administration's decision to participate in this operation. I have lost two friends in Iraq...for reasons I feel are bullshit!
Are we clear?

Not cool man. I understand you are upset at having lost some friends there but that does not give you the right to abuse someone else who was only asking what you meant.
If you have a problem with someone, take it to private messages. I will not allow this thread to degrade into another insult fest. Clear?

hear hear!!
(sorry, it had to be said )
(sorry, it had to be said
)How is he stupid, when you said that about Paladins? To me, and everyone else, it sounds like you're saying the Paladin killed your friends and is wasting tax money.
Show your distaste for the Iraq war in a more clear manner and somewhere else, basically.

You guys are right...just a little on edge. I buried my best friend yesterday and it just struck me wrong. My apologies...
