Blackwater divides California community - 17 Sep 07

Private security firm Blackwater has had its license suspended by the Iraqi government. But the company has also stirred up debate in a remote corner of the United States. Rob Reynolds travelled to a small town along the California-Mexico border where Blackwater's plans for a training facility are dividing the community.

I have heard nothing but bad things about this military company. They are for money thugs who shouldnt be allowed to build up such a huge army within the USA. Do your research people!

The military is a government organization. Blackwater is a business. Big difference. Where is their allegiance?

[killahoe510xx]

I'm lookin forward to this blackwater company when I'm finished with the marines

[bcthighs]

big business. mass murderers in iraq. killed an american who was going to prosecute against them in court. made hundreds of millions doing nothing. provided security in katrina (isnt that the military's job). really? whats wrong with you guys

[romanobritish]

I am was in the military for seven years and a Republican I think Blackwater should go to Hell they are just well trained thugswho don't care about others just the money.

If you think they are doing this to save the world you are totally wrong we don't need greedy Merc's in our State or Country.

Fuck off Blackwater/Xe. Leave my fucking state alone, stay in the middle east where arabs can pay you huge bills to kill other brown people instead of overcharging our police forces and military to give training for things they should have the government support to do themselves.

Asshats.
