#2 If they’re blocking the streets or if they’re attempting to block the streets, then obviously they’re not a civilian.

THANK YOU! Good lord, somebody who knows what the deal is. These alleged 'civilians' were trying to block the convoy? That sure sounds like they were trying to kill U.S. troops. And the sarge is right- that means THEY ARE NO LONGER CIVILIANS! Props to this guy.

This guy better watch out, though. Doing the right thing like this could mean the 4th ID JAG is going to come after you.

#3 I'm thinking how valuable it would be to install dashboard minicams on some of these vehicles (similar to the ones the police use) so that we'd have videotape evidence to counter Al-Jizz's propaganda. A couple seconds of video of these guys moving the cars into position would be worth a thousand interviews with CNN and their ilk.

#4 Good idea,Snell.I've been wondering when some enterprising,young,unknown journalist was going to realize that getting a couple film clips of action while riding around with the troops will make his/her carreer.
