Blah blah!? Black water is full of ex special operators in Iraq. They fall under no command therefore they don't have to answer to someone. I'm glad there's someone taking the war to them! And who cares how much they get paid. Do you know what they endure doing a normal day in Iraq/Aghan. They do the job of civilian grunts,and they do a good damn job of it. Army/marines are way underpaid and over worked. Black water is actually getting paid for what their worth! They are the baddest of the baddest!

^^ Exactly what people tend to forget is these men are all former SF/Seals. I applaude them for finally getting paid for all the time and training they endured.

They get paid to do "dirty" work. I've seen some of this guys in the sand box when some of them were pinned down. They drop people at 400 yards snap shooting.....they're no joke.

They definitely take the war to them and would be a good way to describe it.

That narrarator was talking so fast, I was expecting a giant inhale somewhere during the speech.

its pretty right on.

only thing that sucks with me joining Blackwater, i'd only get about 250-300k a year as a Medic....but that is all untaxed income as long as i dont leave for more than 6 days at a time up to the allotted allowable vacation time. I've been looking at it as an option for quite some time...go there for 2-3 years, put about 600-700k in the bank, and live off the 4 or so percent interest.

It's a two-sided problem.
The country is on it's way to becoming lawless for the wealthy and powerful, and controlling the unwealthy and powerless.
Soviet Russia has an ever increasing similarity here.

Blackwater does, in some cases, what the US military will not do due to regulations and political red-tape. In some cases, they get the job done better.
On the other hand, where will it stop? When will it get to the point where if the gov't/private agencies disagree with you, or if you're too much of an outspoken individual, you and your family will be hauled out of your house in the middle of the night never to be heard from again? Syberia, anyone?

There's no such thing as mediocrity, law, order, or stability. It's always a venture to one of the two extremes. Free? We won't be remotely for long.
