#1 Its called PROTECTING AND PRESERVING THE INTEGRITY AND TERRITORY OF THEIR HOME STATES. Once upon a time in America, before the Clintons' "This is Amerika, NOT America", the Mighty USSA = Weak anti-Sovereign Global SSR/USR, it used to be called UPHOLDING THE LAWS OF THE US GOVT AND THE US OF A.

#2 Why did they run? Because if they had shot anyone -- or any of them had been shot -- there'd have been holy hell to pay thanks to the very same politicians striking poses now. Not to mention the press outrage, the inevitable condemnation from the UN, etc.

#3 Ask Ignacio Ramos and Jose Alonso Compean whether to shoot back or not.

#4 Same damn reason a lot of these brave kids over here don't want to get involved in a firefight. If they kill anyone, the lawyers are all over it second guessing RUF/ROE and they could end up in jail like SPC Lindy England and that bunch. No big mystery to me.

#5 I haven't heard an explaination yet about why they ran. I'm assuming they are embarassered to say, but there is no good reason that backup wasn't available somehow. I hope they fix whatever the problem is or someone is demoted.

#6 Unlikely they had ammunition. Too dangerous, wouldn't be prudent.

#7 If they scratch the surface... grill the CO in charge of the group, they'll find Direct Orders not to shoot and to refrain from causing an "incident". Just another travesty from DC. There is no intent to protect our borders. The Arabic scumbags have noticed this long ago also. Who knows what they've drug in here. None of these soldiers, here or in the sandbox, is allowed to fight. When is the public going to get off the Gameboy and wake up ?

#8 Don't know SpecOp, but I'd imagine they'll wake up glowing. The "public" will probably "wake up" about 5 minutes after a nuke goes off in their City and FINALLY realize what the stakes are in the fight we're in!
