MWRPs aren't really tanks but I'd still be concerned if one of these rolled past my house and soldiers/LE officers were jumping out of them:
I can explain it to you but I can't understand it for you.

And especially worrisome if it were PCSO jumping out of them!! Cuz they gotta shoot something every day! lol
Got a buck in your pocket? Better spend it before it burns a hole in your pocket. I guess the PCSO feels the same about ammo and shooting stuff at random.
Don't get me wrong, I'm all for shooting stuff up, I just happen to believe that shooting should be done under controlled circumstances and in places that are purpose built for the task at hand.

There's shooting stuff for fun and keeping your skills current, and the there's shooting stuff when it counts; I mean no disrespect to LE officers and war fighters that have to shoot when they are defending the lives of their team mates, themselves, and the innocent.
Then there's the cowboys who feel like they have full control over a situation strictly because they have the weapons and they have been trained but feel free to violate the training when shooting something/someone could make them look cool in the eyes of their peers.
If you're gonna take the shot, hit and kill what you're shooting at, with the possible exception of vehicles and IEDs, inanimate objects are mostly off the menu.

Alcohol abuse is never a laughing matter. Unless the keg was full of Miller Beer - then nobody would really care.

And sadly why some choose to leave. A pity when residency or lack of residency is gauged by how stupid LE are.

Probably outrageously priced but what a good idea.
