Other than highlighting the importance of peripheral vision, not afforded by the burka (I do hope that poor woman was OK), I saw nothing out of the ordinary, for a security/protection detail.

Yeah. Looks to me as if the person walked into traffic as if they had the right of way. Tragic, but an accident.

You also don't just stop a security detail (who knows who they were driving/escorting anyway) in the middle of a jammed street in a place like that. And who is to say that none of the lead vehicles didn't radio for assistance?

Too much Hollywood

No, you don't. You, your client or your buddies get dead doing that, worst case scenario. Best case, you end up working for a cheaper contractor. Maybe.

Not enough, these guys actually have to change clips.

Something like this could have already happened long before the OP video begins too.

His eyes must be all crazy looking at temperature graphs and pie charts and needed a trip down memory lane.

Blackwater....winning the hearts and minds of the local civilian populace.

Exactly.

The guy going "oh My God, Oh my God" did not sound particularly happy about it all, but nobody sane is going to stop.

Especially as it was a protection detail......who were they guarding??/ BTW, Blackwater lost not ONE single individual under their protection.

Not one.

Yes, video dated 2006. So what? I didn't post it in the News sub-forum, and even if I had, the video hasn't been public since 2006. Maybe you need a pie chart? :lol:

 

[EagleSmack]

Dude... this stuff is all over the NET.

2006... really? Missing the old days eh?

And maybe you should check out whose training Canada's Armed forces. lmao

U.S. firm linked to civilian deaths hired to train Canadian soldiers


Whoop! CHECKMATE!

 

[L Gilbert]

Um, I saw other pedestrians rushing towards the woman. I can understand a few vehicle crunches, but firing into traffic?
If it were me, I'd have chosen a route with a lot less traffic.

And maybe you should check out whose training Canada's Armed forces. lmao

Does that mean Canadian troops run over pedestrians, shoot civilian vehicles, etc.?

I have just two questions...

How do you differentiate a civilian vehicle from a civilian vehicle, whose operator has tactical intension, in a few seconds?

How do you differentiate a civilian accidentally hit, from a civilian that is willing to step in front of a convoy for tactical reasons?

Checkmate? Why? Do you think me some knumbskull nationalist that will look the other way if Canadian soldiers do the same thing? If so you're wrong, very wrong.

I'm sure you have, but just in case...

Have you ever browsed Apache Clips? It's very good. LiveLeak too.

I didn't get that either

If it were me, I'd have chosen a route with a lot less traffic.

In a major city?

Does that mean Canadian troops run over pedestrians, shoot civilian vehicles, etc.?

Not sure... but they're paying the guys that do MILLIONS to train them.

 

[petros]

We like Monsanto and all their subsidiaries.

Yeah you're right... Why even post any content at all relating to news, fraud, scams, murders, war, economics, science, religion, etc. Or anything at all really. It's all over the net after all in some form or another. It's probably happened before in nearly the same fashion.

Andem could just host a chat room for trolls. :roll:

This is the age of information where a combat soldier has a helmet cam filming,its raw and brutal and makes me wonder why all these wars keep going on and it seems like religion is at the root of it,my gods better then your god blah blah blah!
People get killed,collateral damage is allways high,why are we allways fighting? Religion?
We should all just ****ing get along.

Religion ids the promoted reason, the ones with all the guns are not religious, they are the front-line for international corporations who would rather kill people and steal the natural resources. For being so 'knowledgeable' how did this slip by you?
