Great. Super. And I read a report quoting a "Senior FBI official" who stated that the 14 out of 17 number was highly speculative and that it was much to early in the investigation for that number to be reliable. In addition, this same report stated that the firearms used by the Blackwater detail only arrived in D.C. on Wednesday for examination, and that without ballistics tests it was far too early to draw any conclusions about the incident.
Perhaps, in your prosecutorial zeal, you are a bit too anxious to convict the Blackwater employees.

I am not convicting anyone andf I'm not anxious to do so. I just don't necessarily put much credence in any one man's perceptions when they are under fire or believe they are under fire. Reading the public portions of the testimony of the Rangers who killed Pat Tillmann should show you that.
Also, I thought you had no idea what the FBI did or did not do? [And what did the FBI guy have to say about the Army's investigation? But that's not the point.] We'll see what the final investigation turns up.
While I appreciate their service to their country, and to the hundreds of thousands of dollars they're making doing a very dangerous job, they don't get a free pass from scrutiny when a shooting incident occurs. [Ask no questions, just wipe up the blood and pay off the relatives.] No sir. Nobody rides for free.
Why do you have such a fucking hard-on for this? Is one of them a relative of yours?
