[QUOTE="av8torntn, post: 201137, member: 8259"] I did not name them anything that is what it is called. Congress was saying end operations now. You take a couple of car bombs to your patrol and we will see how close you would allow them to get to your vehicle or that of the men serving under you. They all know not to drive up to military or police checkpoints. They know when to pull over and stop. When it is time for their vehicle to be searched we or they let them know. I know now you are not saying that we are randomly shooting people for no reason. The rules of engagement are very clear. For security reasons I cannot post them of course, but they are very clear and easy to understand. Who was this police officer? Was he one of the few that set off IED's on our troops? Who was shooting at him and why? I can think of many more questions I would ask if I was the reporter. Who is embedded with his police company? Where is the report that coalition forces submitted that say we were being shot at by friendly forces? Is he part of the insurgency that slipped through the cracks in the rush to hire more IP's? (I would be trying to find out if he is with the wolf brigade) My point is he may have a good reason to fear our troops but it is not that he is afraid of being randomly shot because things do not go their way. Maybe you would just rather take his word for it but it sounds like a poor job of doing an interview to me. [/QUOTE]
