David, picture is absent.
ReplyDeleteWorked fine in Firefox. Checked IE and it did not display. Went back and tried a different technique--please check it again and advise.
ReplyDeleteDavid- it works now!
ReplyDeleteFYI, and I said this on the Examiner page:
ReplyDeleteThis could be a Benelli M4 shotgun.

I'm not sure but, some of the older ones, are not pistol grips...
I went ahead and updated with that link.
ReplyDeleteDavid - What they're actually doing is not receiving any 'training' per se, it's a 'dog and pony show'. It's posed. That's why the crowd is behind the shooter and the 'show facilitator' (ring master) is right next to the shooter. Everyone's got a big smile.
ReplyDeleteAll the shooting is either done or going to start after the photo-op.
It's 'familiarization fire' or 'fam fire'. Totally designed to enhance the relationship between the pencil pushers and street operators. Nobody walked away from there with a 'training certification/completion'.
That's all it is, just a pat on the organizational butt. I'd bet real, Constitutional money on it.
