You think the police could stop the Navy?
Only because of my years of service in the US military...
How long were you in the US military, Aussiemandeus@aussie.zone?
I'm not even American, you know that.
Oh really?
Well, congrats for taking such a vested interest in American military and law enforcement that you feel comfortable walking into a comment thread and telling a bunch of Americans how complicated interactions between the two groups work.
Super helpful mate, really appreciate it.
Nah no worries mate, any time.
Glad to see i was right though considering the us police didn't do shit all.
So no need to thank me
murika yeh! ... not.
gtf outta here with that shit you self centered prick.
How is direct experience being " a self centered prick"?
If someone said race car drivers don't have to obey the speed limit on the highway. And someone who used to race shows up and clarifies they still had to follow the law...
Would you get mad and insult them for having direct experience and sharing their knowledge?
