BTW good video
But, Soldiers are not trained to attack CIVILIANS with bayonets or SMGs. Are they?! :evil:

My comments were made regarding BAD GUYS who would attack innocent civilians on the streets. If you are still having trouble figuring out who these BAD GUYS are: they are Thugs, Criminals, Muggers, Carjackers etc but not SOLDIERS. :wink:

You are unconditionally right on that Raptor. Yelling hysterically while charging will pump-up the adrenaline of the opponent, which when uncontrolled, leads to disorientation, loss of composure or even worse. BTW, my favorite war cries are that of the Khukri wielding Royal Gurkha Rifles. :)

Safety Pin/Board Pin?!! ROTFL You made my Day!!

thank you sir AK27, i was merely invoking some rather vivid experiences of marital(yes marital NOt martial) discord that I have witnessed or been a party to . I would have included 'sticks/breadsticks/chickendrumsticks/dipsticks/broomsticks/lipsticks/assorted pots and pans/other household appliances such as mixer/juicer/grinder.....,'the list is practically endless; but the forum rules explicitly prohibit sexist remarks and more importantly , being a timid married soul , i didn't want to risk the wrath of 'the almighty'! ;) I am glad I could get the point accross without resorting to extreme measures...... Anytime anyone starts screaming and waving things around my knees turn to jelly, my palpitations skyrocket, i become disoriented and utterly confused. So it's my personal opinion that in such cases , whether I am armed or unarmed, my response time will be effectively slowed down and i would probably choose to turn tail and run rather than try and pull my gun! After all as the adage goes 'discretion,is indeed, the better part of valor! :D
