#1 The "civilains" will get the hang of this an will not tolerate gunnies in their midst one would think. I think this is the proper response to being attacked, better to be feared than loved works with muslims quite well as past history shows.

#2 Witnesses said that after the Somali attacker began firing with an AK-47, the Ethiopian convoy travelling through north Mogadishu opened up with an anti-aircraft gun.

Hmmm, this sounds familar....Ah yes, from the Untouchables:

You wanna know how you do it? Here's how, they pull a knife, you pull a gun. He sends one of yours to the hospital, you send one of his to the morgue.
