Jesus....

Maybe I better think twice if I want to re-up next year. What's next? Mirandizing the Taliban after we tase and arrest them for questioning?

If I see one of those fuckin' tasers over here I'm gonna stomp whoever is holding it.

Tasers? Seems like something that would be more fitting for MPs or something.

If this is for the battlefield they're not, if this is for post M.P.'s I don't see a problem they should have everything their civilian counterparts do. I just know somewhere deep inside of me some brass is going to want troops deployed in combat zones to have them though.
