ISIS ISIL... whatever....Threating .mil families?

I am sure that this is just routine "workplace violence". Nothing to see. Move along, citizen.

That's a fantastic idea. I wish I could.

FWIW, providing security in that manner might create a higher number of relatively easy targets.

If it's done wrong... careful planning and good observation could make all the difference-
Someone should be installing a multi-camera system with night vision right now.

Then with a secure web feed, and a conference call, we could have someone watching each camera... all feeding info to a team on-site.

OK, I went all high-tech- but I'm a network engineer, what did you expect?

oh, and I almost forgot- don't rely on the site internet (cable, dsl, etc), put in a router with 3G+ wireless backup (yeah, I know it could be jammed- but then you'd immediately go to high alert)

OPSEC, OPSEC, OPSEC. These guys are cowards, attacking the families (particularly while the member is deployed) is exactly the kind of thing these pussies would do.

Chances are, they just want to do what terrorists do- create fear... but everyone needs a plan, right?

I would totally be down for this, but I'm not playing "bodyguard" and following the guy around town.

Honestly, he probably can't afford a decent camera system.

I'm sure they're are guys in his AO willing to help him out. But I tell you this. First times it eçones an issue here I WILL be at the guys house will coffee and guns to make sure him and his family don't worry about this worthless shitstains. What's the quote, "I sleep at night because rough men stand ready to visit violence on those that wish us harm. " yeah I'm that guy

I'm reminded of a news story from the 80s. I think it took place in CA but the locale wasn't really the issue. It seemed a soldier didn't like the drug deals occurring in his neighborhood and reported them to the cops. The dealers in question somehow found out who dropped the dime on him and were massively unhappy so decided they'd go pay him a visit but the soldier in question found out ahead of time and invited his buddies over for a barbecue. They just happened to bring some stuff with them. IIRC, the soldiers in question were SOF and the cops ended up cleaning up the dirtbags off the street, no charges pressed since the soldiers were just defending themselves while trying to eat dinner.

I know the story you're thinking of. I thought it was in Washington or something... I dunno, CA doesn't sound right though. I want to say main guy was a Ranger. I'd love to read it again if I could find it.

Found it. Ash Street Shootout.
