If you doubt me... explain why Astan is under Taliban control.

Why an AR-15? And how many of those ARs are going to be able to take out the convoy protecting the "soft skin" fuel transports? Think thermal imaging wouldn't show them on the route...easy pickings. And again, why a .223...reach out an touch somebody with a real round if you're going to. Or just use the "not as cool looking" 22LR. Or are you implying that Astan has the same level of resources as the US Military?

... You DO make a point, mate - and perhaps whatever charges
will come on a case-by-case basis... The fellow "prostesting"
near the Capitol went ahead and lit a flag a-fire, and
was under-arrested for "lighting a fire in a restricted area"
- something like that.
Probably payed a fine and got released.
