    I train Jujitsu and I also sit a a lot. One of the things that can make it a little harder to stay fit is muscle imbalances that can occur from constant sitting. If your posture is…

    How to program: Just pick up a keyboard and start pressing keys? Not exactly rocket science either since, you know everything that isn't rocket science isn't rocket science...I thi…

    Having your weapon drawn right from the get go is not a good thing. It tends to make calm people nervous. As far as getting out of the vehicle most police don't like surprises so i…

    I'm glad someone gets it haha! Most people and therefore police officers don't want to get shot. I'm going to assume that the group with more guns and people are the side you don't…

    Why does everyone seem to derive the usage of flashbangs from something like Counter Strike. Knowing the room layout/size as well as what kind stuff is in the room is never a sure …

    Solders for the most part get much more time and training using firearms than police who tend to have a much wider range of duties to perform. Most NATO militaries have increased t…

    Most military rifles are semi-automatic. Even with a fairly tame AR style rifle using automatic fire makes it a little harder to quickly engage targets and the recoil can be a litt…

    You would be amazed at the difference in reaction time if someone steps out of a car with a weapon drawn and the time it takes to bring up your own weapon. If the US police were so…

    I can remember the proper name for them but it's along the line of Armed Emergency Response Teams. Watching tapes and a short training exercise the amount of trigger discipline and…

    I think the usage of the word military to describe equipment is getting convoluted. I still have an old MILITARY 2 piece canvas tent(with the little poles and stakes) It's certainl…

    Military grade stun grenades don't use thermite. Military stun grenades can barely burn anything(I have tried many many times but that's another story). hearing about people gettin…

    I guess police departments (if they haven't already) would be stupid enough to deploy them in a trivial situation. If your dealing with against a threat with a firearm I'm going to…

    UK police get stabbed a lot too but they have much better armor. Yes, talking people down works in every situation. Not to say that guns work every time but if someone has the inte…

    I think you would be interested in how fast someone can move in with a knife. Anyways, you give them space and they bolt away and stab or take hostage the next person they encounte…
