Have any idea how many of us are even better trained ex-military?<p>In the US, about 13.4% of men are veterans.  And 1.4% of women are veterans.  So if you&#x27;re in a theater with a hundred men and a hundred women -- fifteen of those people are competent in the responsible use if firearms AND have proven themselves willing to put their lives on the line for their countrymen.<p>I&#x27;d put money on an overweight, half-blind, ARMED, 60 year old US Marine up against 5 religious zealots with AK-47s any day of the week.<p>Hell, even those Air Force guys probably know what they&#x27;re doing :-)
