do i agree with everything he says? NOPE. but firearms and the training behind is like martial arts. every instructor is going to have his twist on the "facts" of the course. idk james personally, and dont buy into anyone, fully. but i must say that his credentials are in tact. police officer, swat officer, etc.
here is what i just posted on that facebook:
"odds are, bullets flying in the sandbox are going to be 7.62. that being said, a car is not "cover". its concealment. so James running across and trying to find true cover, to shoot BACK at the enemy is not cowardly. it was smart. JUST BECAUSE "STUPID" or "UNTRAINED" LOOKS BRAVE, DOESN'T MEAN THOSE BEING "SMART" ARE "COWARDS". Its hard to look "heroic" 6 feet under. Maybe if those fallen officers did what james did = they'd be alive today, and could have saved other officers as well. Standing out in the middle of the road waiting to get plucked off like sitting ducks is stupid, not heroic."
i just want to tell others what i have learned working amongst law enforcement & high stakes security officers. they are all fisherman. why do i say that? because they lock up a 5foot tall transvestite who slapped him, and come home telling their wives that they just took down and locked up a 6foot tall 350lb black guy who had a gun, and a knife - single handedly. these guys are like locker-room jocks that will find any and every way to diminish some other's officers reputation to boost their own. they do this in every dept. this is the "community" that hides behind the blue line. people think that the blue line is this magic group of cops that will stop at no end to cover each others back against BS.... let me tell you something = wrong. officers jot down every mistake conducted by any other officer for future mud-slinging. from days off, to on duty. from smoking too many cigarettes, to shoes not being shined. from being seen chugging a couple beers off-duty at a bar, to spanking your kids at a store. it all gets jotted and referenced later (conveniently right before promotions). so to find a couple security guards that served with him in the sandbox, talking s***, is not a surprise to me. and having the general population chiming in and calling someone a coward, is also not a surprise. and seeing james getting pissed off is not a surprise either.
idk how id act in that situation. but i do know one thing = sitting like a duck in an open pond (the cars were in a open roadway) i too would have darted for better cover to return fire and to be able to be not only protected when reloading, but to be concealed when returning fire.
According to the AAR from Edinburgh, Yeager was the Driver of vehicle 1 (the lead vehicle on the right of the screen) and not the team leader. Allan Johnson is listed as the leader and was in vehicle #3. Yeager couldn't get vehicle 1 moving, dismounted and went for cover in the ditch
and regarding his "ill kill anyone talking ish" - thats just immature and needs to stop. it only fuels the "this guy is a dork" internet trolls. thats about as mature as his beard
who in their right minds would ever take his class after that, idk. id never be want to be the guy that says: "i took a class from a guy who is threatening to kill people on the internet".
EDIT: just found this comment on one of his video's lmfao
"Remember when you were a "bouncer" at Visions? Remember when Jesse French kicked your a** and you were sitting there crying like a little girl?? I guess not. I'm friends with ALL the members of the Benton County Sheriff's department and each and every one of them all say the same: They will NOT work with you again! You and Siler are both the same. Delusional. Soldier of Fortune magazines everywhere and this fantasy of being a "mercenary" of yours is only going to get people killed. LOL!"
