Private Armies 1: Blackwater - Stuff They Don't Want You To Know

Although Blackwater brought the news to the mainstream, it's a troubling fact that private armies are increasingly common. Advocates argue that these private firms can save taxpayer money - but critics say these companies operate outside of the law. Tune in to learn more about Blackwater in the first part of our series on private armies.

Interesting that you do a Blackwater segment, and there seems to be a huge coverup involving them... The Boston Bombings........ Mercenaries... if you haven't seen the pictures... i highly suggest that you look them up, since i cant seem to post the link- very suspicious.. particularly that the black backpack used, doesnt match the backpacks of the 2 kids, but that of the team of two...then another photo shows the team running, one of which does not have his backpack-

I'm gonna chime in here. Those are some general statements, regardless of the source. "Very high rate of firearm death" - and what percentage of that "very high" amount was caused by guns kept in the home? I'd say not many. And what are the risks of a gun in a home to a responsible person? None. Unless you keep it out where kids can get it, there are no risks. Benefits? Protection against criminals and maintaining what little power We The People still have.

Are you still on about that? Who gives a shit?

Anyone can cherry-pick "peer reviewed" studies. I can find studies that say the opposite. So nyah!
