One of my dirty nasty leg NCOs who was small arms master gun qual'ed hopped up on his truck, only to find the airborne retard had lubed his M2 w/ LSAT for a mk19. He'd baked the shit to the bolt.

    Once airborne are on the ground, they're legs anyway.

    Rather, those in charge are the idiots who perpetuate deviating from the standard as normative. While safety can be pinned on everyone, at some point the buck stops. This is squarely on the RSOs, Instructors, and CoC who were observing the iteration and didn't stop it.
    Oh, I fully agree. I wasn?t leaving the people in charge out of my stupidity theory. The fact that they seem to be disregarding or failing to recognize blatant safety issues propels them pretty high up my stupidity rankings.

    Discussion is an exchange of intelligence. Argument is an exchange of
    ignorance. Ever found a liberal that you can have a discussion with?
