“There’s no shortage of people wanting to be “a sniper” these days. It’s a great “pickup line” and an outstanding way to impress the chicks”
Why? No disrespect on soldier snipers, or even honest LE snipers. But a sniper isn’t exactly shinning knight. No King Arthur. Any chick impressed by that needs to think how cold blooded a sniper has to be, then apply that to herself.
Watch for demands by the gungrabbers for strict controls on “medium range sniper weapons”.
By United Nations definition that’s your standard scope sighted hunting rifle. The kind that slaughters millions of helpless lovable deer every year.
“We only want to ban assault rifles”
“Noboby’s coming to take your guns”
If the Feds don’t restrict the usage of their heavily armed SWAT teams, then the people will be forced to defend our liberty by returning fire. Not all sniping has to result in fatalities.
A BLM or Forestry agent patrolling the back country will quickly get his head on straight when his vehicle becomes the target.
A vehicle tire will do just fine. An aluminum airplane or helicopter engine can be disabled with a single shot. A drone airplane with a hole through the fuel tank or battery pack isn’t going to take off. A boat with a few holes in the hull won’t be patrolling the harbors and waterways. A manufacturing plant can be brought to a close if something as simple as the ventilation system is disabled.
