Last I heard, the cops pulled out of there after one of their own was shot in broad daylight at one of the best corners in that area, while he was driving. The car was then stripped as he lay bleeding and out cold in the front seat. And, nobody saw nothin'...

So are you into the drugs and prostitution thing, or where you just being a smart ass with the Cass stuff? Amazing what one can learn from a Google search, Detroit is a very interesting place! AC

You know his great death from above blast them from up in the clouds stuff. Macho heroics. I'm sorry I have no such peace time fantacies to relate. All my experience was back in '67-68 with the 25th Inf in a little place called Cu Chi in the shadows of Black Lady Mountain inside the Iron Triangle. Down 'n dirty in those viper infested tunnels flashlite in 1 hand 45 Gov't in the other. You know it's a little more real time when you see the people you are hunting face to face at 3 feet jorge. But alas I'm sure you'll once again slip in the calling everyone a troll that does not agree with you. Last edited by Otjiwarongo; 01/22/06.

Just a bunch of boys bragging about the past. I remember when I used to say, "My Dad is better than your Dad."

What does the majority of this thread have to do with a thread created about a great elephant that fell to a 45-70? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> But the squirrels were cute <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
