Looks like sniperson a rolling ship are far from useless... at least in daylight. These seals train for years for that one shot. They don't miss...

I think it is resrictive to timely response to
 

have to have a POTUS OK to to do the right thing.
What should not be comforting to anybody is the prospect the government does not consider the involved/threatened individual as the priority.

The process of evaluating who we going to upset, who will like it, who won't like it, are we sure we can't talk 'em out of it, etc, etc.

When a country is doing the right thing to protect it's people from harm there should not have to be any concern for who reacts how to it. As a matter of fact, it is a proven behavior form that when one knows the response for a violation is imminent, there are fewer violations.

And in the State of Florida one does not have to drag the body inside if you shoot a person for just cause on your property....or in public for that matter.

God bless the USA
 

God bless the navy seals,the United States Armed forces,and the President of the United States for making the right decision.Its about time we come out on top,and as usual all by ourselves what a great day for America.:eclipsee_gold_cup:

An interesting point:
 

The Navy has an SOP regarding action if a hostage is endangered. The presidents permission was not required, unless of course he ordered the Navy to stand down. Then, they would need permission.

They were towing the lift boat and pulled it within 40 yards, just about any basic trainee after 8 weeks with an M14 could pop someone at 40 yards.
Reported that the snipers had some sort of auto gryo device on their weapon's support that canceled out the wave action.

Still, Good shootin!

(my son in law, on the Denver PD, was a Murine sniper in the 1st Gulf War and underwent much the same training as the seals - like staying in the water for 24 hrs, or so).
