Are you serious?

If I moved to any Islamic nation, it would be Qatar. The Saudi royal family is barely hanging on by a thread and I would prefer not to be there when the oil money runs out and the radicals take over.

That's me in eastern Afghanistan, with our French military partners. (Not wearing my rank, as usual. And no "cover" - hat - either.)

So the police with their backs turned should have allowed everyone to come as close as their body?

"Well, I put that at the feet of the bureaucracy and administration."

HA! Well, I put that at the feet of the bureaucracy and administration.

While in a fight in Kansas City, a police officer asked two bystanders for help. Their response?

Not at all. I've been hoping for a repeat - though with a different outcome - of the Bonus Army for quite some time.

Which of her rights was violated? She voluntarily injected herself into the situation by approaching the officers.

After watching the video again, it is clear there is a 'buffer' zone in place between the line of police and the individuals behind them.

"Nope" she wasn't aware? "Nope" she won't be asking for a refund? "Nope" she wasn't oblivious?

I know! I'm disappointed he wasn't able to get both, too. That would have made for a far more entertaining video!

"They need to have a reason to do something like that, there was no visible reason. You can't just assume someone is going to attack a cop because of the general direction they are walking. On the other hand, if an officer is going to cross check you with a baton, he'd better be able to articulate where the threat…

Not at all. I just have this strange ability - when watching a video and looking at a picture - to try and look at everything in the screen.

So why is she walking toward officers who have their backs turned?

I don't know? That chick looked like she took a solid hit and was down for the count.

Winner, winner! Chicken, dinner! Exactly: it looks like the officer who knocked the female down was responsible for protecting the backs of the other officers.

It looks like she was walking toward the officers who had their backs turned. Thus, I am guessing the officer who knocked the woman down was responsible for protecting their backs.

It looks like there is other police officers in front, with their backs turned.

Great album. "Spitting Venom" is solid but agreed that "Little Motel" is my favorite from the album.
