Bush is one of the most powerful people in the world. ANY US Pres is very important, they don't take any chances. But yes, a Mini-Gun is overdoing it a bit.

Dude I pointed this out earlier twice and people still think the White House wanted some tank with a minigun on it.

Apparently informed information based on fact and first-hand knowledge means effectively jack and shit, when compared to "OMFG D3M0CR@TS SUXX0RZ!" or "I'm right because I say so and you're just an argumentative prick".

Ok, sure, fine. Put it on the Blackhawk. But it still makes no sense, tactically. They make it seem like they're expecting Somalia. I don't see how any situation big enough to warrent a minigun can be solved by turning the English weather into a vertical hail of bullets. I just can't imagine when a minigun would be useful. Surely they could employ more useful equipment, no?

Just throwing out conjecture.

[Edit: That was kind of unclear. I guess the point I'm trying to make is that if you needed to use the minigun, you'd be in a untenable situation anyway.

I'm not going to comment on my personal feelings on Bush (let's just say I don't care much for his "leading" style). He is going overboard with this extent of security requests.

*goes back to Dude, Where's My Country?*

Nope....its one of the few N64 games I own/played(sadly).

And no1 gets my stupid jokes.....





He wants to do something. he doesn't want that shit for protection, he wants it for assault. This is the first time i've heard of this and i'm thinking wth didn't he ask/use this when he went to other contries?


Just my opinion.

Man I swear. I'm telling you, that article is either bullshit or flawed. I just pointed out several glaring inconsistencies and you still think President Bush went up to some guy and said "Hey home skillet, put a minigun on this tank and let's roll!"

So? Its a show of force to make people think twice about doing something. If someone goes into a gas stop to rob it would they be more likely or less likely to do it if they see a police officer inside? Would you be more likely to attack someone who was 6'2" 265 pounds or 5'6" 135 pounds? Its a show of force to make people think twice....interesting thing is how some of those people that preach peace can be so violent.

K now i'm kinda supporting the minigun after what i heard on the news last night. But not on the streets ontop of tanks ahd shit, just inside when everyone thinks he's asleep but instead he's running off the walls lika ninja with his minigun in one hand and his tax numbers in the other.


Or instead of a minigun, just like some special ops soldiers gaurding him throught Britain.
