“May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one.”


"This report is maybe 12-years-old. Parliament buried it, and it stayed buried till River dug it up. This is what they feared she knew. And they were right to fear because there's a whole universe of folk who are gonna know it, too. They're gonna see it. Somebody has to speak for these people. You all got on this boat for different reasons, but you all come to the same place. So now I'm asking more of you than I have before. Maybe all. Sure as I know anything I know this, they will try again. Maybe on another world, maybe on this very ground swept clean. A year from now, 10, they'll swing back to the belief that they can make people . . . better. And I do not hold to that. So no more running. I aim to misbehave." ~ Captain Malcom Reynolds

Tonight's lesson

When it's the tail end of a long, frustrating 11 hour training day, and your group is making the same stupid mistakes we lectured you on five hours ago, I won't feel particularly guilty about emptying a full magazine of airsoft rounds into your bodies during a scenario because you can't pay attention. Maybe it will stick in your minds this time and keep you alive out there on the road when it's for real, and throwing a tantrum about it not being nice or fair won't really impress me. TYVM.

They were crying?! There's no crying in active shooter training!

Obviously you should have shot them with your airsoft gun again for crying.

Let me at them. They will be crying for their mommas by the time I am done.

Semi off-topic...Have you seen the marking airsoft BB's out there yet? I bought a can but I'm hesitant to put them in my rifle. I'm thinking of buying a crappy throwdown airsoft pistol to try them in first.
