The gun katas. Through analysis of thousands of recorded gunfights, the Cleric has determined that the geometric distribution of antagonists in any gun battle is a statistically predictable element. The gun kata treats the gun as a total weapon, each fluid position representing a maximum kill zone, inflicting maximum damage on the maximum number of opponents while keeping the defender clear of the statistically traditional trajectories of return fire. By the rote mastery of this art, your firing efficiency will rise by no less than 120%. The difference of a 63% increase to lethal proficiency makes the master of the gun katas an adversary not to be taken lightly.

I saw that in the paper this morning.

Having the same trigger for two functions, that include one bringing death is a bad idea.

Eight of the 2-inch lead rounds punched through the school's roof, knocking down ceiling tiles. At least one round struck a child's desk
Imagine quietly sitting in class, doing your work, then suddenly seeing a 20mm hole in your desk where your notebook was.

I've seen pilots routinely fly very low levels. My father's church in rural South Carolina was a massive red-brick structure that pilots used as a turn marker. Their Combat Air Control teams would set up in the parking lot, and the pilots would do low-level turns there. So pilots flying at low levels isn't a newsworthy event, where we come from.

He didn�t say the F-18 was strafing the fair.
