A) I don't work in IT
B) You can at least TRY to make it harder by passwords and/or encryption, which these people failed to do, bringing this upon themselves.

Everyone was o.k. except our Terp who was deaf. Nothing is worse then deafening your Terp. No more Flash bangs cause of some idiot.

You must have trained them well  When I was in Baghdad they would rarely stray closer than ten car lengths behind. Only one time do I ever remember bringing the 50 caliber down and that got their attention fast. I was there when it was standard practice to be nice...trying to win the hearts and minds

Yeah, because they deserved to be SWAT raided by having an unsecured network....

I agree, I rarely have a handgun further away than arms distance. If I heard a loud crash bang that's the first thing I would naturally go for. Much better to wait for me to be leaving and pull me over or just knock. Glad I have kick in protection on my door, from the videos I've seen online of what I installed it would take a few mins with a battering ram...I think I could convince them to stop or they'd get tired before it escalated.

We had RWS and M2s on our RG-33s and that scared the crap out of them.
The HMMWVs had little armor and the general population weren't at all scared of them. Flash bangs worked great until someone screwed it all up.

LOL that is funny right there. Yeah we were rolling the MaxxPros right as they first came into theater. Brand new and I'm sure they certainly are a bit more imposing than the Humvee and a lot more fun as a gunner...lol
